Is the UK Ready for No Deal? (October 2019) - Brexit Explained

With the Brexit deadline getting ever closer, it's worth asking if the UK is ready to handle a no-deal Brexit. Luckily Michael Gove spoke in front of the house to discuss the government's readiness. So in this video we discuss the government's announcement and plans and compare them to the harsh analysis of the recent Yellowhammer report.

The idea that the report should say that “plans are in place” without providing even an outline of what those plans actually are is, to say the least, suspicious.

With the pins: "And for a limited time the EU and UK together" 🤣

But it seems to me that they still have no real solution to the irish border. The issue of the good friday agreement meaning that you can just import goods from the EU without checks is still an issue. Just saying that they will uphold the good friday agreement doesnt solve the issue.

0:46 you say Austria but show the pin of Australia. By Austrian law you are hereby sentenced to eat Kangaroo-Schnitzel.

"Shall we go done the road we always do, or should we take that road we've not been down before?"
"Let's go down the new road... oh... the new road isn't finished, & just goes off a cliff, let's go back"
"Too bad, you chose the new road, we're driving off the cliff"

The financiers of BoJo and Farage, aided and abetted by the likes of Cummings and ReMo (who has a financial private interest of doing Brexit without a tax deal), simply want to blame the EU, get a flimsy deal or not-real-deal (like the citizen rights, which goes without saying), and then win the election by re-addressing the myth that England needed to be freed of the shackles of Brussels because 'Britain' is so much better off by itself (because the English consider themselves to be superior people far above the Continental monkeys). The ploy is that this can be presented as 'Brexit with a Deal, we really did anything we possibly could but the EU let us down'. The people will believe this and this will guarantee that the Tories will win the election. More importantly, the billionaires will get their tax breaks or cash in their hedges. Example, one hedge fund hack, Crispin Odey, backed Bojo with 800, 000 pounds for the Leave campaign in 2016 and cashed in at the stock exchange when the pound fell at the election, netting him 220 million pounds sterling. That is the game that is played. The population has no relevance in this and certainly won't profit from Brexit.

Gove sounds like he's sped up by 1.2x and got an aura of Florida Man

[ashra]

So I'm just gonna spit ball some idea out there.
No. We're not ready.

"and for a limited time the UK and EU together" lmao 🤣

Medical supplies are already being fecked up from the stockpiling.

It's taken me a month and 4 different prescriptions from the doctor just to claw enough tablets for me to safely go away on holiday.

Epi pens are also being refused - a mother in my pharmacy had to fight for days to convince them she needed one for her kid (peanut allergy).


This isn't normal and shouldn't be considered normal.

«For a limited time, the UK and the EU together»

I see what you did there.

When you want to be in the EU and have all the benefits, without all the responsibilities.

Suggested topic (Non Brexit) - What is UK Gov tax income from UK international arms sales and who do we sell to? What regimes are they, what are their humanitarian and human rights standards? Then ask your subscribers whether or not we should continue supplying these regimes??

Impartiality is good.
Pretending Brexit won't *destroy*the economy and put lives at risk isn't.

[TheJalipa]

Given the difference between Yellowhammer & Gove’s Statement - spin & propaganda is only conclusion

Because massive structural improvements are not thing that can developed & implemented in a couple of weeks

TL;DR for the video: On the surface, yes with an if. In reality, no with a but.

[cezarcatalin]

There is no good version of no-deal.
There is no way to properly mitigate a no-deal to the point of being just as harmless as a bad deal (which by all means ain't harmless).
No-deal will come close to what is assumed in the yellowhammer documents.
Not even EU is prepared for a no-deal.

To put it simply:
No-deal means you need to hold on to your chairs cause your seatbelts are going bye-bye.

They seem to have no real solutions just a promise that they’ll try their best.
