Yesterday, the IMF released a report on Britain's economic forecast: depreciated pound, falling growth and investment and with a shortage of tax monies, the privatisation of the NHS may be required. Just like was said before the referendum, when it was denounced as project fear. Maybe those brave Brexiteers might like to say something now?
To make us all feel a little patriotic, it was announced that from 2019, Britain's passports would be blue in colour: Brexiteers and Fleet Street rejoiced, and talked of a major victory. That the EU allows passports of member nations to be any colour, and so Britain chose the maroon ones, means, like everything else in Brexitlalaland is bullshit. So we can say that all the loss in jobs, productivity, banks and manufacturers moving to Europe, collapse of the NHS and care system, fruit and vegetables rotting in the fields, but at least we will have our blue fucking passports. Those of us who travel for a living will have years to ponder this when we have to apply for visas or wait in line at border controls.
That is it for todays, and one hopes this year's Brexit news. Next year it will be even madder and chaotic as the clock ticks down, more and more and more important deadlines will be rushing up and need to be dealth with, but always remember the colour of your passports.
Merry Brexit Christmas.
