That'll be Old Gregg heading to Sainsbury's to Newry. Feel free all RoI residents to pop up to NI and spend your hard earned.

I said this would happen a couple of weeks ago, mainly because it happened last time the £/€ fell to 1.05 in 2008/9. Makes good sense.

I made my first ever sale to France yesterday. Exports picking up.

As Jeremy Clarkson says, who cares if we upset a few million northerners who only voted leave because they were worried about living next door to a "darkie"?

Oddly those massive knobs in the south who have never left the leafy suburbs to visit the north, if they had they'd realise that the 'Darkies' voted leave as they didn't want loads of 'snowflakes' living next door.

Meanwhile back in the real world.

Tory councils normally put them at junctions where the signage is confusing.

Points much worse than simple fine ...

Labour council, innit?

I didn't vote for that council, therefore they are unelected in my book.

Well, if the EU isn't at fault it must be Jeremy Corbyn's fault.

Nope, some local 'tards initiative - average speed check cameras in 30mph zone - at least one of them dual carriage way very straight, should have been 40 mph at least.

EU directive?

I don't mind them on motorways, but totally unreasonable to have them where those muppets put them.

I really don't know what you're all worried about.

This referendum is not legally binding; Article 50 won't be triggered without a vote in parliament and the motion will be overwhelmingly rejected. (whether or not that will require a GE somewhere down the line, I don't know but there are a number of potential scenarios).

So your view is that John Lewis and other big retailers (AKA importers) are not supposed to be affected by big slump in value of sterling???

I reckon 80% of what they sell are imports, in remaining 20% "made in UK" around 80% of cost is based on imported materials.

Presumably you will be relocating soon
