On the day we left the E.U. the TV packed up , today the toaster went the same way , too much of a coincidence for me

Bet they were all made in the EU

When did China join the EU?

There was a time when you had to fit your own plug.

I think fitted plugs came from the EU.

Cheap electric 
swap to a more expensive supplier ,
cheap electric will never brown your toast properly 
probably not powerful enough to strike the valves in your talking picture box either

Microwave still good till 31st December.  At least the chlorine washed,  hormone fed, replacement will be cheap in the Sales and come next day from the USA.

Maybe older electrical stuff needs an "octane booster" adding to allow them to run on this new fangled green energy instead of the old full fat electricity

A week in since leaving the EU & I'm very, very disappointed where project fear told us our £1 would be worth less than a lira or a 1920's deutschmark but the GBP is steady against the USD & Euro. I've still been able to buy toilet rolls so I haven't had to use my reserve of Liebour or Limpdims 12/12 GE sheet of lies to smear some of their sh*t back. Worst of all is that we were guaranteed the skies would be full of flying fire breathing dragons, giving us Leavers fire, brimstone & eternal hottest part of hell's damnation & I haven't seen one, not one, has anybody else?

On the 31/12/2020 I proudly wore my leave 31/01/2020 T-shirt & a couple of shouty remoaners had a go at us & their best argument was we think personally it is a bad idea to leave the EU.

I went out for a couple of pints last night with an old mate and we were discussing the corona virus and what might happen if it seriously spreads.

I jokingly said I might a couple of cans of spam in, just in case I have to stay in, and he said, luckily I've still got my BREXIT stash so I'm alright! 

When I stopped laughing, he sheepishly admitted that he had indeed, bought in a stash of food in case of No Deal.... 

He is a very intelligent man with three degrees, a BA, an MA and a Phd.  He's a Dr! , but he reads the Guardian....

Why would you NOT have a "stash" of food,medicine,back up power and lighting,extra security  etc 

the power grid has had failures recently, there is corona virus on the news (spreading) ,uncertainty of supply of medicine and food etc and currently very strong winds  that could cause problems

fail to prepare ,prepare to fail

Wait until 1st January 2021, Mr Rods.

At present we are still following all EU rules. When they say jump we still have to ask 'how high'

How is it "scaremongering"    big chunks of the UK where without electricity just a few months back
there is a storm right now that's battering things (i already have fencing jobs coming in ) so power lines could be damaged
supermarket stocks of simple drugs like painkillers  have been depleted in my area and prices have gone up  as have food prices
that may be down to people stock-piling for BREXIT , but whatever the reason, there are shortages and price increases

stocking up on tins and long life supplies makes sense before prices increase even more
