Well they clearly fooking did didn't they?

Um even if you only blame it partly on Brexit you are still implying that Brexit is partly to blame.

Therefore at some level Brexit has played a part in the TC problem.

I do clearly understand no one wholly blamed it on Brexit.

This is a massive breakthrough. A CUK cretin has realised he's made a comprehension error. There is hope yet.

Lots of different things - makes life more interesting.

Today though I am a solutions specialist

What do you do?

Cleaning solutions.

It's astonishing that you actually manage to hold down a job. What is it you do, exactly?

Nobody blamed it all on Brexit.

On that basis, I'm afraid I have to opt for - no, it wasn't clear that you understood. Thank-you for clarifying.

Did you get an F in CSE English? Does that explain why you can't tell the difference between partly and wholly? Dunce.

Get your causal relationships roght, man. His poor grades at school and his current lack of critical thinking skills are likely to be effects of his cretinism.

You see, the first statement isn't blaming it all on Brexit. Perhaps you can find a better example to prove your point?

Wouldn't bet on it. Like several on here, he fell out of the stupid tree and hit all the branches on the way down.

Ah. Let me help you there, highlighting a couple of key words.

Thomas Cook just went bust thanks (partly) to Brexit

What do you mean no news?

Labour party disintegrating over Brexit
etc

Nobody blamed it all on Brexit. That is just your cretinism shining through.

The main reason that TC have gone belly-up is due to the exorbitant costs associated with trying to maintain a high street presence when the market has moved on.
They have simply gone the same way as a great many other "Big High Street Names" that have stuck their heads in the sand and ignored the inescapable fact that much cheaper online offerings will be able to undercut them to the point of their inevitable demise.

But if it saves you a few quid on comfort blankets to blame it all on Brexit then fill your boots. It is impossible for you to look any denser anyway.

Hello spuddy

[shaunbhoy]

So the pound taking a beating hasn't impacted TC's cost base? Hasn't Brexit impacted people's income/wealth making them less willing to take foreign holidays? Or is all this just a coincidence?

This
Labour and SNP will vote against anything Boris puts forward.

I'm not so sure. I think on a matter of such import, MPs might defy the whip if it were enforced. And JC is the one party leader I might see allowing a free vote (obviously SNP and LD will block-vote)
