I wonder how the Tories and Brexiters are going to blame the "companies who didn't prepare for Brexit" or the "Remoaners" for this rather obvious government (and therefore Tory & Brexiter, as they have taken over the government) failure?

See, Brexit was all about helping the poor people and the left behind and the working class people who had saved up to retire in the sun.
The Times helpfully explains how you can still do it (well, if you're rich and have a spare million or so):

Yes, BREXIT is really going great. Although, why Laphroaig have outsourced their online order shipments to Germany and have kept it that way (in particular for the UK) after Brexit is beyond me.

A Welsh fishing company is currently in the news with the problems Brexit is bringing it:

Brexit: 'My £50,000 shellfish lorry was delayed for 30 hours'

Family-run business risks losing £50,000 worth of shellfish after Brexit delays at French border

However, what neither of these reports mention is this:

Well, looks like your grandchildren won't inherit the business four generations have built....

Hürden für EU-Touren: Britische Musikindustrie beklagt sich über Brexit-Vertrag

Es besteht das reale Risiko, dass britische Künstler nicht in der Lage sein werden, die Kosten für die zusätzliche Bürokratie und Verzögerungen zu stemmen, was einige Tourneen gefährden würde“, warnte Jamie Njoku-Goodwin, Geschäftsführer von UK Music, einer Vertretung der Label- und Verlagsseite sowie der Live-Industrie. Die Regierung müsse sicherstellen, dass sich Künstler und ihre Crews für ihre Arbeit in Europa frei bewegen können.

Muhaha ;)

An excellent analysis by Fintan O'Toole in the German Die Zeit (in English, although a German version is also available) of what Brexit has achieved (or rather not achieved) and the problem the Brexiteers/Tories are likely soon going to have:

A ridiculous swagger
The quest for size has led to making Britain smaller. Is this the beginning of a development that will end with an English nation-state?

The one thing you should never do with a scapegoat is to kill it and eat it. The EU scapegoat has now been ritually sacrificed to the gods of national identity in the hope that they will in turn bestow the greatness that holds Britain together. When the gods do not respond to the sacrifice, the people often turn their wrath on the high priests.

I think this is an excellent and important article:

Remainers must not gloat over Brexit’s failures
The electorate will not reward those who appear to wish for disaster

Gloating will only strengthen their views and resolve. Just keep quiet and wait, despite all the gaslighting and lies sooner or later the electorate will come round. And they will blame it on the Tories.

No one now remembers that the Conservatives voted for Tony Blair’s Iraq war. Just as he owned that, so Mr Johnson owns Brexit.

Just wait and show that you want the UK to be successful. And show that you want the UK to be a better country.

The Spanish foreign minister explaining in fluent English what a trade deal is all about. The UK has Dominic Raab, who didn't understand how important Calais was for the UK's trade. I also suspect his command of Spanish is limited.

John Major: Brexit set to be 'more brutal than anyone expected' | BBC News

The bill has been rejected by the UK's House of Lords.

This action is unprecedented in all our history - and for good reason. It has damaged our reputation around the world

"Because of our bombast, our blustering, our threats and our inflexibility - our trade will be less profitable, our Treasury poorer, our jobs fewer, and our future less prosperous."

Sir John also warned that Brexit divisions increased the risk of the United Kingdom breaking up.

OK, I'm going to get my prediction in early, here's some of what I expect to happen (in England, as the devolved governments have their own rules) over the next couple of months:

• some kind of "lockdown" with more holes (exceptions) than a Swiss cheese from Thursday
• pubs, restaurants and non-essential shops busy until "lockdown" kicks in, as people want to use their "last chance"
• numbers will go down a bit towards the end of November and into early December
• government will proclaim it a success and announce a "ceasefire" or "truce" for Christmas where people can visit their families in order to "save Christmas"
• the virus will still not understand or know what a "ceasefire" or "truce" is and happily continue doing what it does best: infecting and making people ill, or even killing them
• in January numbers will start to rise again, first calls for another "lockdown" will be made. Which the government will ignore. Track & Trace still not working
• by the end of February another "lockdown" is announced

(and that's ignoring the mess that Brexit will bring, deal or no-deal, as nobody has the time & resources to prepare for it during lockdown)

#UK #England #Brexit #politics #Coronavirus #Covid19 #pandemic #government #lockdown

Looks like the Brexiteers are hedging their blame game. As of course nothing is ever their fault they are now adding unprepared businesses (who don't know what to prepare for....) to the inflexible EU and saboteur Remainers.
