I see food imports from the EU will be subject to an increased tariff from April 30th…

Wonderful.

Ranges of goods will be restricted, but you should be catered for in Waitrose. Extra 10-15%.

This has been put off time & time again. day of reckoning fast approaching. Although I wouldn't be surprised if it not kicked down the road until after the Election, another problem for Labour to sort!

I am so grateful that Brexit has already sorted out the NHS, improved water quality, cheaper food and energy prices, fewer illegal immigrants etc.

I think you are mistaken by thinking that leaving the EU would sort that out. Surely you must realise that our continued adherence to the ECHR is the problem. Hopefully leaving the said institution will form part of the upcoming Conservative Manifesto, so we can get out of it.

Although I did not vote Brexit, I would gladly have accepted the benefits should they have materialised...

Just this week I tried to find a rare bike part as I couldn’t find anyone who had it in the UK. I finally found one in Germany, so I placed an order. The following day I get an apologetic email saying that due to all the paperwork and fees involved, they no longer ship to the UK because it’s too much hassle.

Brexit. What a pile of toss.

Are you saying people voted for Brexit even though they knew the promise of “a sunny upland” was a lie and never going to happen?

If I were you I'd go over there and tell them you didn't vote Brexit. Give 'em a piece of your mind.
