And you'll be telling us that the 120000 (no, I've not added too many 0's) vacancies in Care homes, caused in large part by departing overseas staff, will get filled by UK citizens. Yes, I guess there must be lots of out of work Teachers, Engineers and the like who are keen to get into providing personal care for complete strangers. Well, this is something I do know a bit about and (if Kem was here he would tell you) not everyone is cut out for this kind of work.
Anyway, enough of the facts for now
A good summarisation of whats to com Ash, and i can only imagine the outpouring of English nationalism that will erupt at eleven tonight.

We're reeling them in today (which is more than can be said for the North East fishermen) Chief executive of the Scottish Seafood Association, Jimmy Buchan, another Tory supporting Brexit campaigning separatist whinging that, “It’s like a motorway crash and there’s people with L plates and experienced drivers all caught up in it”.

Aye JAGZ, but at least we're able to keep Johnnie Foreigner out. Never mind the minor problem of us having to get visas to go abroad and the lives of thousands of Brits living in other countries being disrupted. Some have got it sussed though like Boris' dad Stanley, who is so thrilled with the new deal that he has applied for French citizenship

I remember with those old Blue Ones that "United Kingom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland" on the first page was repeated in the French language
Just before the end of December when Brexit would swing into action, if that's the right phrase, I got a letter with a form to fillout from our local Town Hall: there was nothing to indicate that I might be offered German citizenship but it was hinted at that there might be some unforeseen, as yet, circunstances which might make travel through the rest of the EU a tad difficult. I suppose that if Mary and I were to marry I might be eligible for dual nationalty ... but that would be a helluva price for either of us to pay

To paraphrase Wodehouse ' No one will ever confuse a ray of sunshine with a gnat nursing a grievance' Brexit is a done deal just accept it. If it ever happens you gnats probably think Scexit will be a breeze and the other UK countries will give you everything you want.

The only word in your post that makes any sense is "done", because the people of the UK have been well and truly "done" on Brexit
You can pop off behind your couch now so you don't need to answer any questions

Yes, like he ever did, and he'll be jumping up and down on his couch excitedly waiting for his Polish printed French published new blue passport to arrive so that he has to stand in long queues waiting to be allowed into EU countries on holiday.

Quoting a fellow English nationalist Scot hater now are we DJ?
You may like to kid yourself that the P.G Wodehouse's and the present day English Gnats like Johnson and Rees-Mogg would treat you as an equal compatriot, but as always you're wrong again, no matter how much you kissed their backsides you'd just be a filthy worthless Jock to them.
I have accepted "Brexit is a done deal", when did i say otherwise?
I know, i'm asking you a question, well you won't answer this one either.
The will of the people of Scotland is to hold another Indyref, will you accept that?
We want to regain our independence again, what else would we want from "the other UK countries"?
