Time for BREXIT FAQ

October 7th, 2018, 8:00 pm

Dear Simon,
I have an Irish passport but I live in the Netherlands, Will I need a visa?
When travelling in UK, will I need special car insurance? Will I need to have a receipt proving I purchased my Husqvarna?
If I get a traffic ticket, how will I pay it?

Yours
A listener from NL

Dear Listener from the NL,

If these trivia upset you then you are in for a shock and you might want to double your dose of beta blockers...in the UK they drive on the wrong side of the road.

Dear Simon,
Both I and my better half agree that driving on the left with a mainland EU car is ideal. The Europeans got that one wrong... Except in Dumfrieshire where the roads have deteriorated in recent years... The potholes are in the middle of the road. And I hope they finish off the A69 soon. It's so annoying in those traffic jams.

We were discussing what the EU has done for the North East.

Propaganda piece. Take a fact, attribute it to the EU as if the attribution was also a fact.

And a focus on averages, without looking at distribution (inequality).

City of London was strongly pro-Remain, guess why.

You armchair academics are all the same. 

Simon,
What will be the price of heating oil after BREXIT?

Scaremongering
Does BREXIT means as much to you as BREXIT means to me?


There'll always be a  BREXIT
While there's a country lane
Wherever there's a cottage small
Beside a field of grain

I support the Yankees. Zero correlation with BREXIT.

If remaining in a customs union will still allow the UK to ban live animal exports, I'm OK with the customs union.

Perhaps it would be simpler just to ban live animals
