You thinking any other powerful country in the EU will see what has already happened to our lost jobs, our fishermen, our farmers, our poorer areas propped up by EU funding, and think "yeah, give us a bit of that action". It's absolute nonsense, we are being destroyed by this act of self harm, and you don't even acknowledge reality.

Look at the funding that Cornwall received in the eu, what they were promised by the gov, and what the reality now is. All that information is out there if you're genuinely interested.

How fisherman's daughter dubbed the 'pirate of hope' sparked 'fishing war': Brexit-hating
hard-left French maritime minister Annick Girardin escalated tensions with threats to CUT OFF Jersey's electricity
Also responsible for fanning today's dispute is David Sellam, the head of the Normandy-Brittany sea authority, who said that he believes Jersey has been taken over by an 'extremist fringe who want to reduce French fishing access and profit from Brexit'. He said: 'We're ready for war. We can bring Jersey to its knees if necessary.' https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/art....html#comments |

All jokes aside threatening to cut off the electric is pretty low, if someone like Priti Patel suggested to do likewise to another country there would be understandable uproar, it seems to have been received quite well though
I voted remain btw, centrist views I know but they are dimly viewed by some

Even so just the suggestion would have sparked uproar if a sitting MP in Westminster said it

their using covid is a lame excuse to make people forget about brexit aftermath also towards that deadline of leaving the EU, UK had seen quite a lot of companies abandoning them to put their main offices in EU nations brexit was already horrible for the middle class in UK, but now also the covid aftermath another financial blow quite likely for the middle class but not the upper class/super rich since well they won't feel a thing financially from either brexit or covid economical troubles as for back on topic towards this, well everyone can dislike France and spout their hate onto them, but where we two nations fight, two have the blame i'm neutral in this, and i am on nobodies side here, although i have to defend France's Macron given i quite like him, his efforts at the coronacrisis (not his fault that majority of french are vaccine hesitant or not wanting to obey simple corona measure rules) whereas UK/France fight, i can see into years to come, better relations for USA/France (USA and EU in general) don't think USA will be UK's trade ally either had to have had this said, my thoughts on brexit, on UK's fingerpointing at EU mistakes (yes EU made mistakes but lets not think of UK as a perfect nation without any mistakes)

On a personal level I've bought a few bits and pieces online but anything over €25 you are likely to get caught for big import taxes (which my mom learned the hard way this week ) so I wouldn't really buy anything big from the UK anymore. Amazon used to be great for getting stuff way cheaper than here but not anymore. Luke wanted a face cam for his PS5 (which has to be the Sony one, no other is compatible) with taxes, duty and delivery it would have cost around €69 on Amazon, it cost be €49 to buy here with free delivery.
