The Brexodus

[mercenary for hire]

Did yis get help with your CVs?Maybe you're doing it wrong.Remember lots of other younger people are applying for the same jobs.Loads of other industries are screwed.Dont take it personally lads.

Another thing ive noticed john if you apply for a job through indeed dot com your asked to fill out your work history, nothing about date of birth or gender or anything like that so when an employer sees that you've worked  for the last 40 years (in my case) they automatically presume your near pension age  and automatically fuck your application on the scrap heap.

Brexit could be a big opportunity .Customs clearance lots of companies will be waiting on stuff to clear customs there could be plenty of courier work .I think the big thing with older workers is the managers are young and know we might know more about the job than them .They dont like being challenged by experience .

There is no value in being old...in this part of the world....At least in China they consider the experience that old people have and respect age and the knowledge it holds.....

We're living too long. A few decades ago anyone over 40 would have been lumbered with the grandchildren not swanning around the world on cruises and trips to Spain and Portugal every few months.

A few hundred years before that yis would probably be dead by 50. Enjoy the bit of time off.

EU in legal action against UK over NI Protocol breach (RTE)

The President of the European Commission, Ursula von der Leyen, has issued a statement confirming legal proceedings are underway against the UK government.

A "letter of formal notice" has been sent to Britain over its Internal Market Bill. "This is the first step in an infringement procedure," she said.

Has the EU fallen into the UK's trap?  Boris will now be able to call out those nasty EU fiends and carry on with his "Rule Britannia" plans?

British troops ordered on to the streets of Britain to keep law and order and shoot British Citizens just like they did in Northren Ireland .

Ive changed my mind on brexit erm,I was a hardcore brexiteer.I am still glad about brexit happening,but I reckon rather then leave the EU,we need to REFORM it.I would give anything to see free movement of people stopped.those overbearing ,and arrogant bastards who run it need to be taken down a peg or two.I hope the day will come when people like Mateo Silvini,Viktor Orban,and other like minded people get the reigns of power
