Civil unrest after brexit

The government has issued instructions for NHS trusts upon how to manage post brexit, when their Just In Time hospital food supplies could suffer, with a focus on ensuring nutritiously balanced patient meals.

If hospitals struggle to feed their patients, medicines for hospital use agd for patients/people generally to manage acute and chronic medical problems, as well as food and other shops' supplies, would the public become agitated to the point of unrest? And if there is a referendum on whether to accept the negotiated deal, or remain in the EU and people accepted whatever deal gets imposed, would this infuriate people even more, after being given a chance to back-out of leaving?

If you take medication, were you alarmed at the government minister's talk of stockpiling your medicine, when you can't, as you still need your Doctor to prescribe it, you can't just ask a Pharmacist for a few more month's of your tablets etc? If your meds aren't available when you need them, what are your plans? This isn't all about health and medicine but health highlights the absolute essential need for good logistics, border control goods movement etc, ensuring that deaths etc don't occur.

Civilisation generally is about three days away from complete breakdown.

In the event of some catastrophic event - loss of all electric supply - and in the absence of any state intervention, that is how long it takes for society to collapse and become lawless.

The state, including the military, have a variety of contingency plans.

They will somehow muddle through. The austerity that’s coming, no matter how extreme, is not going effect the political elite behind Brexit.

They will be supping champagne on their yachts laughing at us.

In the same way remainer Bob Gelfof was supping Champagne on his yacht with his filthy rich mates 2 years ago during the referendum campaign, laughing at pro Brexit working class fishermen on the Thames.

Yep pretty much like that guy, but they are richer and will be laughing harder.

Can’t stand Bob Geldof. We agree on something. Pig do fly.

Luxury fine dining for pennies will continue for the House of Commons and Lords, I'm sure and representatives will probably put in expenses claims for premium shipping fees, for food and items used whilst 'working'.

It will be interesting to see what spurious claims are made

Absolutely right. So many in this thread have realised, wether they voted in or out, that the Establishment engineered this coup & manipulated the facts with the bought & paid for BBC & obedient media tabloids.They aim to caarve up & profit from, the remains of these British Isles.There simply has to be a vote upon the 'deal'....but we should be aware, that at stake are protection for public services, civil wellbeing & conditions which will be jettisoned, in favour of lower protections of the person & environment..

In relation to the title of this thread I read this morning a factual statement which probably leaves me to believe that there could be civil unrest!

"A British family moved to France (permanently), in June 2018 citing that they moved because of racial abuse they received! The husband a Northern Ireland citizen worked in the a factory that predominantly voted leave and was racially abused. She worked in a university but lost her job due to the lack of foreign students coming to study! They sold up and moved to France and bought a home in the Gers region. They are now trying to get to grips with everything they need to do here in France - register with tax authorities - do they meet income requirements? Health & Insurance cover etc etc. Fortunately she is fluent French and had an interview for a job here - which has been cancelled and rescheduled to next year. The problem being to get the job she needs to have an EU passport!

Very sad that an Irishman has been forced out and what's it going to be like for EU citizens? More to the point if there is a backlash there in UK, will it be transported to British migrants in the EU - we have crazy alt right factions here?

I work for a very large international company. But my team here in Bristol is 4 people. Of that one is Spanish and one is Polish. They have both lived here about 7 years and both have young families. They are both higher rate tax payers, highly educated, and very skilled. My team is responsible for our EU operations. Our EU operations are only allowed to be managed by EU nationals. Or employees based in the EU. To be honest, I'm still not clear on exactly which, and I guess that our contracts and processes with our customers likely are slightly contradictory in that manner as I guess it was never envisaged that the UK would leave the EU.

If it is the case that it is EU *nationals* and not *residents* then I could end up in the strange situation that due to Brexit that in fact, *I* am no longer legally able to do my job and that the Spanish and the Polish guys stay! If it is EU residents then potentially then none of us are able to do our job as none of us will reside in the EU.

I’d guess the later. But it’s a shit position either which way ....

Of course, the stock answer is we will do a deal so whatever rule it is can be extended to the UK. Even under a no deal.

Yes, that is the stock answer. The problem being is that like most stock leaver answers it misses the point.

We

Will

No

Longer

Be

A

Part

Of

The

EU

And hence any contracts or legal positions that are based on the UK being in the EU will immediately become invalid in 19 weeks time.

Can we re-write those contracts? Yes... but what is the impact of them? As it stands in our case the entire reason for this EU team is based on on the protections around personal and corporate data offered by the EU. And as it stands we still have no idea if the UK, come march next year, will have the equivalent protections. The UK govt *say* they will have regulatory alignment with the EU but as of yet still no-one *actually* knows what that means.

I was a contractor before and could go back to that, so in that regards I'm not *too* worried, and also been working on on some other side projects just in case. But still a bit un-nerving. That said, I'm hoping as a large company they have enough clout to work it out. My CEO was on stage with May a few weeks back, and trying to basically tell her to 'sort shit out'.

What a silly thing to say.

I could say...

“I’m surprised leavers haven’t promised free aliens for everyone born in uk after Brexit. “

But that would be silly too.

It’s a little more complex than that my dear. I left because my ex was not happy that I was back on here and was being disruptive in various ways.
