Title: Spend your Brexit dividend?
Post by: Varche on 21 November 2019, 13:11:23
I know we are all fed up of the B word but how are you going to spend your Brexit dividend? There seems to be one coming regardless of whether we leave or remain.

So, my plan is

To raise my minimum wage and reduce my tax bill.
Invest in a green USA private health plan
Free green internet
Upgrade the car to green electric Mustang using the extra income from new minimum wage
Free upgrade of house electrics and supply. Green of course
Plant some green trees ( they will be olive trees of course)
Windfall tax on my next door neighbour because he looks like he has more money than me


I think that is it, real change.

What are you going to spend yours on?

Sorry, El Varche, no windfall for Spaniards.  :(

Au contraire. Plenty of eu money sloshing around for massive infrastructure projects like high speed trains ( second biggest in world after China) , new bridges and roads. Even our local roads have been improved with (your) EU money. Thanks

I'm going to buy a Chateau (Escape to the Chateau stylee), and plant the grounds with ornate magic money trees, and farm unicorns and flying pigs for their meat. I expect Unicorn must taste a bit like Venison, and Flying pig a cross between peasant Pheasant and Wild boar so there will be a ready market worldwide for such exquisite cuisine.

A unicorn is a horse with a horn, so it's meat will be like posh horse meat, a bit like wagyu beef.  :)

I'm sure the French will love it!  :y

That's not in your pocket, though, so there seems to be a small problem with your plan.

I like the unicorn and flying pigs option.

Living in the shade of money trees.

With Diane Abbot doing the sums, I admire your confidence at having spare cash to " fritter away" .😆
