As related to the thread as many other themes I guess. Your last two posts, first the one to dmg and then directly after that the one to me made me laugh (again) because of their different approach.
And it's Pottel who is attacked by dmg here in a pretty rude way, Knopflerfan, with calling him a "so-called-moderator". Just to let you know.
dmg, I don't like to be told what's my business and what's not. To say Brexit would only be related to me if I was British, shows a very narrow minded view in this case somewhat. Or am I for example only supposed to hear German music and no MK, only because I am German?
After the last years of crazy political debate and behaviour of especially Boris Johnson, Brexit was made as annoying as f@%k by the British government to all the world, not only to Europeans. Be assured that you are not the only one who is annoyed. If any, I was attacking Boris Johnson and not the British people or personally you. That's part of discussion culture.
I see a direct connection in talking about Lego as a present for Christmas (it's not UK made by the way) and the current bad situation in British supermarkets indeed. But maybe MK will bless us with a new song about it (My Bacon Beef City) so that dmg allows us to talk about it here again.

Sorry but your post is ill-informed and childish (Brexitland, I ask you
), no doubt fuelled by the leftist mainstream media and pictures of broken down refrigerator cabinets. I have seen no empty shelves near me.
The small lorry driver shortage, and it is very small, is due to a backlog at DVLA brought about by Covid. Although Brexit was originally the issue for the shortfall it would've been solved if Covid hadn't arrived. But this is the issue here: the Polish drivers have found out they're better paid back home because they were getting peanuts here and driving down wages for everybody, and this is the same for many other industries. Some of these migrants are living in very poor conditions sharing an overcrowded flat - it's modern slavery. Tell me that's right. This is one of the reasons I voted to leave.
I was under the impression politics was off the agenda but the digs have been brought up once more. I ignored the first few in this thread but you can push a man only so far. Hero worship the EU in your own time please, I've no problems with your politics. Just don't keep putting digs and jibes on here.
Can we all make a promise collectively from now on never to mention the B word and respect to each others countries?
Edit: Just seen your post Dusty - fully agree.
