The Daily Brexit

IRELAND faces food and medicine shortages and 110,000 job losses if there’s a No Deal Brexit – leader Leo Varadkar was warned yesterday. The Irish Central Bank said a crash out on October 31 would cause an economic shock of “unprecedented nature”. AP:Associated Press PM Boris Johnson with Home Secretary Priti Patel[/caption] There would be mayhem at ports and airports, an ICB report said. The apocalyptic forecast came a day after the Irish Premier slapped down Boris Johnson’s request for Ireland to compromise on Brexit by “ abolishing the backstop ”. The ICB predicted No Deal would immediately relegate Ireland from being the Eurozone’s fastest growing economy to its slowest. And warning the risk of a rupture has “increased” since April, the ICB said GDP expansion would be just 0.7 per cent next year, instead of 4.1 per cent with a Brexit deal. Ireland’s Food and Drink Federation has previously warned No Deal could spark shortages of fresh fruit and veg, chicken products, milk

The next three months are the most critical our country has faced for many decades. Since we voted to leave the EU on 23rd June 2016 with a clear mandate from the British people, we have made little progress towards the exit, other than triggering Article 50, which set us on a two-year negotiating deadline. We have now missed two deadlines and we cannot afford as a country to miss a third – and neither can the Conservative Party. Let us be in no doubt: the two finalists in the Conservative leadership election achieved their places by promising to leave the EU with or without a deal. Boris Johnson won with an overwhelming 66% of the vote because he, over and above Jeremy Hunt, gave the certainty that we would leave on Hallowe’en. This is what Conservative Party members voted for, as did Conservative MPs – with over half of them backing Boris in the final round. Add to this the fact that the House of Commons voted to trigger Article 50 to leave the EU with a massive majority of 384. Bo

The dubious history of Labour’s candidate to take on Boris in Uxbridge has been further exposed, with new footage uncovered showing Ali Milani refusing to rule out “armed struggle” against Israel while also pushing the classic trope of a well-funded Israel lobby. No wonder he fits right in with Corbyn’s Labour… When asked on Corbyn’s favourite Iranian state propaganda outlet, Press TV – natch – whether the BDS movement (Boycott, Divestment, Sanctions against Israel) is “ an alternative to armed struggle or something alongside it? ” Milani responded with an answer condoning both: “There is no reason why we need to frame the argument as binary, it doesn’t have to be either a non-violent economic resistance or an armed resistance…” In the same interview, alongside another notorious spreader of 9/11 and other conspiracy theories , he claimed that his distasteful views were not easy to argue against “ the lobbyists [who] co me out very quickly; the other side is much better fund

Despite the incessant doom and gloom from Remainers about Boris and the low pound – now it suits their agenda , at least – the UK’s aviation market is still set to soar to new heights this August. Departing seats from UK airports are set to rise to their highest level of 17.3 million in August this year, up from 17 million last year. The low pound is flustering commentators, not deterring holidaymakers… Capacity is taking off at airports across the UK, with all but three airports soaring. The only airports to see a fall were Stansted, Glasgow, and Belfast due to their heavy reliance on Remainiac -owned Ryanair.

The Central Bank of Ireland has sounded off about potential ‘cliff-edge’ risks in the event of a no-deal, no-transition Brexit: “The main outstanding source of risk to financial stability in Ireland stems from a worse-than-expected macroeconomic shock. This could arise if the expected negative impact through trade channels is compounded by a sharp increase in uncertainty and a fall in confidence, with knock-on effects to Irish employment, incomes and investment. Ireland’s relatively acute exposure to Brexit may also negatively alter investor sentiment towards Irish assets, with adverse implications for financing conditions of an already relatively indebted private sector. Given the extent of direct and indirect exposures, this would result in unanticipated losses for the domestic financial system.” The Central Bank forecasts that in a No Deal scenario Irish economic output could be approximately 6% lower in 2020. In the understated language of central bankers they warn of “… sever

Gay Star News has shut its doors, making twenty people redundant and not paying them for a whole month of work. Aside from journalism, the company had also been running the official not-so-successful LGBT+ for a People’s Vote campaign. What are they blaming for their demise? “The uncertainty over Brexit” of course! “The biggest change was the level of confidence brands and businesses in the UK have, due to the uncertainty over Brexit. It won’t surprise anyone to hear that many media organisations are struggling with the same problem.” But this claim doesn’t quite ring true when their rival PinkNews has tripled its revenue over the last twelve months. Perhaps Gay Star News’ investors were some of the few people who actually believed their Second Referendum campaign’s scare stories talking down the UK post-Brexit. Or more likely, it was just shoddy business practice… A source familiar with the company told Guido that “they over hired constantly and didn’t know what they were d
