Ah well, fracking definitely does. It also increases the methane emissions

Extraction isn’t the problem. It’s a green house gas that’s 80x worse than CO2

Wait til you hear about nanoplastics

King of the cunts

Returning to common law for regulations more than offsets an annual 0.26% loss of productivity.

And the UK’s productivity problems occured while in the EU anyway.

The UK specialises in services exports, which are unaffected by a customs union.

Perhaps the EU should become less protectionist, it might help their stagnant economic performance.

British accents change every 25 miles

They did, nicotine is vaped now.

We disarmed the UK after two shootings. And restricted certain fertilisers after bombings

Now they just use knives which are a lot less lethal

So we are literally edging our way towards revolution, lol

Do they mean a mix tape?

As they did last time

So that’s what the right wing will do if they get control of the Commission then?

I find it bizarre that the EU has no way to expel members.

Hmm, shall we look to history to see past efforts and the results of centralising power in Europe?

I really don’t get why we’d want to emulate any of the large federations. Russia? China? USA? Nope nope nope

A cell structure of independent states is inherently a better structure than a blob where you only have to get one bad leader for the whole thing to be fucked.

Yes, implementing a new agriculture policy obviously requires the future tense. We have to undo 50 years of perversely incentivised destructive practices.

The point is we can.

Abstract: Brexit repatriates agriculture policy and subsidies after over 40 years of determination by the European Commission. The paper starts by describing the baseline at Brexit, noting the relatively small economic contribution, the problems of competitiveness given the UK’s geology and geography, and the poor environmental outcomes. The scope for improvement is correspondingly large, and in particular through the impacts of the new agricultural policy based upon public money for public goods and for England, the Environmental Land Management Schemes. Larger and more long-term impacts will come through new trade agreements, through new technologies, including digitalization, robotics, and genetics, and through carbon farming and offsets. Finally, the paper sets out a framework for a future assessment of the impact of Brexit.
