40 acres and a mule
I've lost the thread of this thread and have no idea what you are on about now
How does Brexit affect where my local butcher sources beef locally?
This week, the UK’s largest supermarkets issued a stark warning in The Times that a no-deal Brexit would force up the price of the average weekly shopping trolley by as much as 12%. You can read the full article here
That figure is an average expected price increase, but some staples are expected to rise considerably more because of tariffs. For example, beef is expected to rise 40%, chicken 22% and cheese 44%.
Anyway, fact is, I voted remain in 2016 and Labour in 2019.
Don't care.
If the WHO advised everyone to shave their heads because COVID-19 hides in people's hair and spreads like that, you'd be front of the queue for the clippers, wouldn't you? Out there hair shaming down M&S food with the other drones.
Oh God, I shouldn't give them ideas.
YGo on, use the word "sheeple", you know you want to. 🤣
It's worth asking what it is possible to hope for from this future. I would be happy to exchange, I think, a huge reduction in economic compulsion in exchange for a corresponding reduction in material wealth.
I would be interested to live in a world with nothing to buy and no money to buy it with provided my time was my own and basic freedoms were preserved. I think this future would be vastly preferable to Stan's programme of enforced Nazi optimisation.
