Well for months now, most on here were bashing Gully when he kept stating that Brexit would cause massive problems, mainly shortages to shops, that is now happening!! Then we had the ones that blamed covid, then we had ones blaming shortages of drivers. Well today the boss of Tescos has stated such, blaming Brexit. Any more bashing to be done???:0)

//Well the Strawberries have been crap this year, no one to pick them, and when they have reached the shops they've been on the verge of rotten. The best ones I've had are when I went to Scotland, but very few Scottish ones have reached the shops.//
Plenty of nice strawberries available in Aldi - grower John Davies Herefordshire.

//12.43 and the 1 million that have been rejected.//
And your source for that figure is....?
Up to 31st July (a month after the official closure date for the scheme) some 6,073,000 applications were received. Of these 464,000 were repeat applications from people who had submitted their claim more than once, so 5,609,000 individual applications were received. Around 109,000 (a little under 2%) have been refused so far. The final total is not yet available because the later applications have still not been concluded, but I don't see the figure of 1m being turned down anywhere. Unless, of course, you have more up to date information than this:

Its always been the case, and always will be, no one can admit on AB that they got it wrong. Gully got it right. It was the same when I kept saying Matt Hancock was telling lies for months. He was a cheat, very deceitful, a scam artist with tax payers money. They say hindsight is a wonderful thing, or that's what they keep saying on here, well if so I didn't see the womaniser side of him. Must pay more attention to my crystal ball, or look deeper next time. :0)
I don't think it is any surprise, tc, that the EU has and will continue to make it as difficult as possible for the UK to trade in a normal fashion. I'm certainly not surprised in the least - I expected nothing less and in fact my only surprise is that there have been as few problems as there have. Of course, anybody believing what politicians tell them only have themselves to blame for their disappointment.
You misunderstand me, Gully.
I knew what to expect following Brexit and it's turned out near enough as I thought it would (as I said, slightly better in some respects). I didn't listen to anything politicians told me either before the vote or since. My expectations were mine alone. I haven't listened seriously to a politician for thirty years or probably more. They promise you fifty pounds and deliver half hundredweight of poor quality topsoil.
