I doubt it

Some good news this morning to share from our medical advisors:

A ROYAL college has said that drug supplies are “very largely secured” for the possibility of a no-deal Brexit.

In an email update to 19,000 doctors, Prof Russell Viner, the president of the Royal College of Paediatrics and Child Health, said that, contrary to many reports, there was no need to stockpile medicines and urged them to “dissuade patients from doing so”

What are the College of Radiologists saying re items needed for cancer treatments. Good news though the drugs hopefully

MissAdventure that was a cracker! lol

"A ROYAL college has said that drug supplies are “very largely secured” for the possibility of a no-deal Brexit."

How on earth is that good news about brexit?A drug supplies are secured right now and will be as long as the UK remains in the EU.

Surely at least some of those who voted for this brexit nonsense thought they were voting for things to get better, not just for damage limitation?

I'm also not sure why things "staying the same" is suddenly good news. It like TMay going on about all the things we will be able to do with her deal which are things that we can already do, makes you wonder what all these billions being spent on Brexit are really being spent on- I know adverts telling us to check the governments' website to find out about how Brexit will affect us - when we know they haven't a clue.

We will get a deal. It will be the least bad deal. It doesn't matter that we will be worse off. It's all in the name of democracy.

I've just spoken to a friend in Denmark. He said " we are really enjoying the latest British comedy series".

Some who voted Remain on here were saying up thread ‘what about medicine shortages?’ and even asking if us Leavers were happy with that. Which is a nonsense - of course we wouldn’t be! my post this morning was intended to be good news in that it was highly reassuring. Our grandchildren are safe!

Our grandchildren are safe!

Remember agriculture minister John Gummer fed his 4 year old daughter a beefburger during the BSE scandal to prove that it was perfectly safe to eat. Say no more.

And she survived.

But why are you pleased that things are not going to be as bad as some forecast? It is a bit like being relieved that only your foot is being amputated, not the whole leg......when it would be better not to face amputation at all.

Strange analogy.
You would not have to make any decision re amputation unless you were faced with a catasrophic injury or threat to life from (such as) gangreen or unresponsive progressive infection.
If you had used the analogy to support an exit, then based on the above the amputation would be an imperative.

deliberate misunderstanding joelsnan, or just being silly? Maybe my analogy was a bit clunky, so maybe if I am a bit more plain; why are you so pleased that things are not going to be as bad as forecast? And, while we are at it, why are some experts worth listening to and some are not?

If you were told that you might need an operation, you might go into hospital for further investigations and tests.

After these investigations the surgeon would be obliged to explain what your options were. One option might be one type of operation, and he or she would explain what exactly that would entail, and what the risks and benefits might be, and then talk about another possible type of operation in the same detail. At the end of all that you might decide not to go forward with either of these dangerous procedures. The surgeon is obliged to ensure that you are properly informed.

We were never properly informed about the potential effects of brexit, partly because no-one, even the government had any idea. Now that we know better, we should be entitled to say "no, I don't want to go ahead with this"

If you were told there was a 52% chance of dying using a particular treatment, but you would stay alive and there were other treatments you could have if you didn’t have the procedure would you have it?

going on about all the things we will be able to do with her deal which are things that we can already do

BUT it will cost us £40 BILLION less every single year to do the things we already do when we leave the EU!!!

Yay! GOOD NEWS indeed for the British taxpayer.

My head is mashed enough as it is over Brexit without all these ‘hypotheticals’. I wonder what the GNers who are ‘peeping’ think of all this?

Please dip in if you have an opinion to share - you’d be most welcome! Us lot are going round in circles!

It will cost us way more than that to set up duplicate organisations, extra civil servants, etc. It’s already cost more than that. Do you really believe our oh so effective government will be effective? They can’t organise a proverbial.

Do you know how many billions this brexit nonsense has already cost the UK taxpayer, let alone UK businesses, EU taxpayers, EU businesses, and taxpayers and businesses in other countries?

We get good value for money as EU members. If we leave it will by the estimates of all respected economists, cost us umpteen billions more.

The point in discussion was amputation.
However, if it was a choice between amputation of foot, leg or whatever and slow painful death, what would you choose?

I've just spoken to a friend in Denmark. He said " we are really enjoying the latest British comedy series"

And?

Most of the UK is eye-rolling and sighing too regarding the stalling going on from Remainer factions.

I am sure however, even though Remainers like to insist we are the laughing stock of Europe, Danish bars are unlikely to be full of people discussing or even chortling regarding Brexit.

I dare say the biggest laughs at our expense are in Belgium when Tusk, Barnier and pro EU officials get together over a drink.

Re: you first point...neither
Your second point...there are no Brexit experts, it has never been done before therefore there is no historical factual evidence based theory, it is all supposition based on perceived current knowledge and understanding. Evidence of this is shown in predictions since the referendum regarding, eu workers repatriation, employment statistics, the economy etc., etc., all misleading.

But you just said your friend in Denmark said people there were laughing/talking about it. So I don't get your point.
