    I read it as more of a **** off payment. "Right Foreigners, we'll give you two grand to **** off back to where you came from".

    Ah, OK. I can see how it would appeal to certain segments of UK society.


    It's probably a failing on my part but I was giving them the benefit of the doubt.

    This is a doozy.

    Lough Neagh eels can't be sold in Britain, as they are protected and the EU bans their sale outside the EU.

    NI is still governed by these rules so the jellied eel sellers in London have no stock.

    You can’t make this sh it up!

    Somebody is going to have to come up with a new word.

    Cluster****** no longer seems adequate.

    They can't re-stock because they usually get their stock from Great Britain (despite being part of the UK), and they have lost 20% of their market because they can't sell to Britain (despite being part of the UK). What an absolute mess.

    David Greig in his prophetic play “Europe” said a border is a magic money line. They can be used to extract tax by government.

    The phrase "gor blimey guvnor you're a toff and no mistake" being given protected status and the use of it by UK immigrants in South of Spain being illegal.

    I sympathise with the farmers who're losing out, but isn't there an underlying longer-term question as to why we both export and import pork and bacon in order to maximise supermarket profits? I'd like to see fewer food miles and people eating healthy locally produced products when possible.

    If the 100,000 stuck pigs die, think we know who'll be 'taking full responsibility'.

    Wholesome British sounding names like Nigel, or Nige, need protecting before they are ultimately obliterated by future generations of Jacob's, De Pfeffel, Francois etc after the inevitable clamour by a grateful nation to name future generations after the architects of the brave new forward looking country they have created.

    I just can't bring myself to use that term when the more descriptive Bozo is available.

    Indeed, wife's with the trademark "Made in Germany" stamped around their belly button are famously gut quality but have recently become more expensive to obtain. The future lies in cheaper Asian imports.

    I’m listening to this Evening of ideas on Scotland in a post Brexit world on Facebook Live at the moment, very interesting talk. Menzies Campbell about to speak, I had wrongly thought he’d died must be at least 132 by now.

    This is turning into a right mess, and I'm not particularly impressed by the EU's reaction so far.
