Thistle_do_nicely Posted September 11, 2019 Share Posted September 11, 2019 skimming through that the now; points 19 and 20 look extremely concerning (not to downplay some of the other mentions; point 15 is redacted and point 5 sounds great, higher utility prices for everyone, yay) 19 sounds like it could escalate extremely quickly into absolute chaos. 20 sounds extremely grim given it says the sector is already in bother - won't pretend to know all that much about adult social care but I know someone that worked for a care provider who's mentioned to me before that it can be heartbreaking looking at the lengthy list of medical conditions/health problems for the elderly, bodies just start failing in countless ways past a certain point. The paltry carers allowance award doesn't help matters either given how flawed it is. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UsedToGoToCentralPark Posted September 11, 2019 Share Posted September 11, 2019 Revoking Article 50 is now the only way out of this shitfest. As Welshbairn has pointed out this is just the edited version - what else is there that they don't want us to see? You cant just revoke something the majority voted for. There needs to be an election so parties can pitch their proposal. Neither Labour nor Conservative would stand on a revoke platform.Let labour stand on a 2nd referendum manifesto, lib dem on something and SNP on Revoke and let the electorate decide. -2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Government reasons for redacting it was probably a mixture of commercial confidentiality and avoiding mass hoarding of fuel towards the end of October which would guarantee a shortage before we even leave. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There has to have been some analysis done but the problem is no-one can say for sure what will actually happen. The doc does highlight though that in the event of a disorderly Brexit it could be less than ideal.If talks of Labour MPs coming together on May's deal are true then I could see that going through. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That would certainly be preferable to a No Deal, but do you really think it would make you, or anyone else better off, or enrichen your life in any way? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hedgecutter Posted September 11, 2019 Share Posted September 11, 2019 1 hour ago, doulikefish said: Section 15 in full 15. Upsurge in Scottish nationalism leading to a post-general election independence referendum, which all government polls suggest will result in a majority voting for Scottish independence. Significant decrease in tax revenues to Westminster suggested to be in the order of ~£30 billion per annum, resulting in cuts to the NHS and armed forces. Daily Mail readers to over-run cardiology departments as a result with a reduction in readership leading to the closure of this particular media firm, resulting in further job losses. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ICTJohnboy Posted September 11, 2019 Share Posted September 11, 2019 BBC 10pm news leading with the COS ruling on shutting down Parliament. 2nd story is the govt's contingency plans to cater for any potential problems that might arise with a No Deal, as highlighted by the Yellowhammer report. What a farce. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
