Let’s have a look, Grimsby is in North East Lincolnshire…
* Leave vote share: 69.9%
I suspect a share of those who are gonna be terminated voted leave. I guess they got what they voted for.
It’s annoying that our industries are decimating one by one and no one wants to admit brexit is the issue.
The opposition should be jumping at this but no one dares say the B word in case it’s a vote loser. So we are literally forced to sit through recession / austerity 2.0 / tax rises / fall in living standards
The one industry that got exactly what they wanted with brexit was fishing and yet here we are.
>the factory was very much affected by Covid and later Brexit along with difficulties in overall operations.
Who could have ever predicated that leaving the EU would leave Britain vulnerable during times of economic stress. /s
As with Devon, places like Grimsby were almost held to ransom by being told that Brexit would save the one industry the local area has. Now they are forced to accept that they were emotionally manipulated and that companies were not invested in the UK as much as they were invested in the EU. Swindon lost its Honda plant for similar reasons. The UK is not that special and the loss of frictionless trade has turned many companies off remaining here or setting up here to begin with. Grimsby is now finding out that we needed the EU more than it needed us.
Zero Fucks Given.
The people of Grimsby ‘Took Back Control’.
They knew it meant losing lots of fishing related jobs in the local area, so what’s the problem?
Can’t they just do a trade deal with Narnia to replace these lost jobs and process fantasy fish? I’m off to ride my unicorn into the sunlit uplands. In other news just how stupid must you feel as a brexit voter these days? Day after day of everything project fear said being bang on the money. You must feel a prize cunt.
BREXIT, bloody BREXIT. Not sure how we will survive.
First the cod wars, then the Icelandic banking collapse and now this.

Iceland really just absolutely hates Grimsby.
