Who else is buying British and avoiding EU goods where possible?

Are you buying only British food? Drinking only British wine and fizz? Buying your electricity from a British-owned power company?

Be fair. They are buying non-EU food, wine (easy one this one) and electricity.

[WTFH]

Be fair. They are buying non-EU food, wine (easy one this one) and electricity.

So they aren't actually interested in supporting the British economy, all they want to do is to see others fail.

If they were interested in supporting Britain, then they wouldn't be so hypocritical.

Buying British food where I can, I drink Chilean wines mostly, and power from British Gas, which is owned by Centrica, a British company.

Where possible I'd like my money to stay in the UK, not line the pockets of non-UK workers.

British beef farmers that are subsidised by Europe - Superb logic

Actually if you do truly buy British, you should be buying weapons, guided missiles and anti-depressants, because that's what the British make, and of course life insurance where your money is poured down the drain.

I did get a sense of deja vu when I saw this thread, but it must have been a much later campaign than that for me to remember it seeing as I wasn't even born then.

Difference now is that loads of 'British' companies are foreign owned, like all the major football teams (foreign owned, foreign manager, foreign players ). Are their fans going to boycott matches? Thought not.

If it means having to buy 'artisan' tulipe with a massive markup to pay for the owner's beard oil, latest tattoo and a day-glow orange tan for their burd they can shove their campaign. Those are getting nowt out of me.

Where do we stand on UK made products for foreign owned companies, are we allowed to buy those

This thread is a classic demonstration of the fuckwittery of Brexiters.

I blame Labour.

Didn't you say you'd be voting Labour this time?

What a hypocrite - Talk about pulling the ladder up behind you!
