so, when will you be starting stockpiling I wonder?

About Christmas time if we continue on the same trajectory.

Interesting that May declined to publish the implications of No Deal... but they're belatedly preparing for it...

Stock piling what? I've clearly missed something.

What do you mean “starting” ?
My freezer contents would see me through a nuclear winter

But seriously, stockpiling what? And whyever?

I wouldn't depend on your freezer, MawBroon unless you've your own generator. Electricity supplies could be disrupted. Dried food and tins are the way to go!

From my favourite Leaver Prophet of Doom

Brexit: lights out for the UK

The blog post is far too long to copy and paste and too complex to pick bits out of. It's best to read it from about halfway down, when he starts talking about electricity supply

Nicky toilet rolls
Maybe dishwasher tablets although if there's nothing to cook.....
Garden is big enough to grow fruit and vegetables.

Providing the don't shut the tunnel we should be ok waving our blue passports and
£10 visa.

Mrs May has announced she will soon be issuing technical notices to businesses and HOUSEHOLDS in the event there is a no deal!

Hence the stockpiling...

Fake news.

Really?

Links to that effect Nicenanny please.

Gin!

Gin comes from here Merlot so that’s not going to be a problem,
My DD will send wine parcels from Aus.

How will they get to UK Pamela if planes can't fly in or out?

We’re all doomed ah tell ye!

Such glee emanating from posts from the prophets of doom!

I won't be starting! Why the heck would we - ridiculous idea!

It was reported by Peston that Mrs May has announced she will soon issue technical notices to businesses and households- how to prepare for no deal.

Not sure what else it would mean.

There's this well known, and used, form of transport called the container ship. They aren't building the Thames Gateway ( not far from me) for nothing.

I hope there's a stockpile of them then, Petra; they might come in handy... if there's any fuel for them

Maw there are plenty of Private Frasers on GN.
Fortunately all the things I really really like are made in the UK, marmalade, rhubarb gin, Thorntons choccies.
In the unlikely event of shortages due to Brexit, I hope I will keep a stiff upper lip.

Marmalade, lemon!

Seville oranges, sugar from the EU or the Caribbean? Better start stockpiling them...

Chocolate? Cocoa beans don't grow in the UK either....

Well, the major supermarket chains are stating that "shortages" of some perishable products could start within 24-36 hours if Just in time schedules (JIT) suddenly come to an end.

There was a program on Channel 4 last night that I only caught part of that was reporting from Immingham I think. Trucks move through the roll on roll off system there at the rate of one every forty seconds to and from the Continent.

The port management advised that if delays start of more than 15 minutes to those trucks, then the whole port would come to a standstill within an hour.

The management also advised that their own staff are now asking about the future of their jobs, but as a management, they cannot tell them anything as they have been told little themselves.

Not a great prospect, so, start stockpiling.

MaizieD oh do give over, it won’t happen!
I suspect some will be miserable when it doesn’t though.
It’s being so cheerful what keeps ‘em going, as they say.

Sorry Lemongrove - but with this

'Fortunately all the things I really really like are made in the UK, marmalade, rhubarb gin, Thorntons choccies.'

you really have demonstrated, as Maizie points out, an absolute inability to understand the issues and how it works.
Quite incredible. Hope your grandchildren enjoy that stiff upper lip instead of chocolate... Don't know whether to laugh or cry.

It was a joke jura.....just as this whole thread is one big joke.
