Its not the trade deal that would do it sadly, we're servicing the UK mortgage market and are paid by a UK company. If a mix of house prices dropping and the pound devaluing vs the dollar happens then we won't be financially viable anymore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monkeys Fist 39361 Posted December 19, 2018 Share Posted December 19, 2018 Have you got a blue passport? Apparantly they’re worth 10 extra somethings.

Nope, a relatively new red one is all mine and it will be for as long as I can hold onto it! Nothing formal on the relocation front, my boss is a good bloke and I wouldn't be surprised if he helped out. Otherwise though it would be up to me to pay our way back home, settle any rental contract we have at the time, I don't even know how long I'd be allowed to stay in the country after the fact. One lives in hope however that it will not come to that! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ohhh_yeah 2795 Posted December 19, 2018 Share Posted December 19, 2018 What (And Why) I’m Stockpiling For Brexit. Posted by Jack Monroe A few months ago I was approached by several newspapers asking me to write a piece on stockpiling for Brexit. I refused, saying that I didn’t want to contribute to food shortages, panic and alarm across the country. This afternoon, I took a deep breath, and changed my mind. I have been overwhelmingly sad about the future of this country for two and a half years. ... And so, I’m writing a list of what I’m stockpiling for the worst-case Brexit. I hope beyond all hope that we never need to draw on these reserves. But I am no longer prepared to take the risk.

ewerk 27238 Posted December 21, 2018 Share Posted December 21, 2018 On 5/4/2018 at 09:54, Christmas Tree said: We’ve done it to death and I’ve got gardening to do. But if you honestly believe there will be no tomato’s after Brexit Ron Howard voiceover: 'There were no tomato's after Brexit'. Quote Officials are planning to tell Britons to change what they eat in the event of a chaotic Brexit because Whitehall predicts that some sources of fresh food from European Union countries would be cut off. The government has begun detailed planning on food supplies if Britain leaves without a deal and has identified a number of sites for massive hangars to stockpile food, including one near Carlisle and others in Scotland and on the south coast. According to plans revealed to The Times, officials do not believe there will be a shortage of food in general. However, there is an issue with some perishable goods that come from the EU. Fruit from Spain or vegetables from the Netherlands could be held up by delays at the border if the EU limits trade or there need to be stringent checks. Internal planners are actively discussing whether there might be a moment where Britons have to “vary their diet” to cope with any shortages. Ian Wright, director-general of the Food and Drink Federation, said: “This illustrates the really grisly nature of a no-deal outcome. Quite simply, the British people would not forgive anyone responsible for it coming to pass.” Some 60 per cent of food is produced in the UK and 40 per cent is imported, according to the federation, although this changes with seasons and in March Britain imports up to 70 per cent. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
