    Supermarket chiefs warn food price rises after Brexit could cause civil unrest

    Supermarket giants warn no-deal Brexit could force food prices up by 12% cheese and beef | Daily Mail Online

    So civil unrest caused by Brexit food price rises.
    Is it going to be more or less severe than the civil unrest caused if Brexit is cancelled?

    Hard Brexit now!

    From that link:

    "Price of cheese, beef and chicken could be pushed up by 44% without trade deal"

    Ouch!

    Maybe Brexit will finally cure the obesity problem?

    Hard Brexit now!

          Don't worry, Wetherspoons has it all sorted
          Brexit is having a wee in the middle of the room at a house party because nobody is talking to you, and then complaining about the smell.

                Indeed. And as Jacob Rees-Mogg says, it's good to have food banks:

                  Are you going to quote why he thinks it's uplifting?

                    OK, he thinks it's uplifting because he believes that charities should do the job of supporting the needy, allowing the government to provide less support, while making sure that off-shore dodgy investment company owners remain untouched.

                    Does that make you feel better?
                    …Maybe we ain’t that young anymore
