Intel said it didn't consider UK for new chip-making factory because of Brexit

&quot;Chocolate teapot no good for hot tea&quot;.<p>No surprise whatsoever. What on earth did Brexiteers think was going to happen?<p>Still, at least we now have £350m a week for the NHS (oh wait, we don&#x27;t) and a whole bunch of trade deals with others (oh wait, we don&#x27;t) and a thriving economy (sigh).<p>Obviously Covid will be used as the fall guy from now until eternity, but it&#x27;s so blindingly obvious that we&#x27;ve been stiffed by a bunch of nutters with some totally false sense of &quot;Being Free Again&quot;. Free from trade, partnerships and an easy way of doing business, yes.<p>Sorry. Bit bitter about the whole thing.

The current Prime Minister is on public record saying &quot;F#$k Business&quot;<p>That pretty much sums up how far UK has been hijacked by chancers.

Well, of course? What did brexiters expect?<p>Doing business from the uk to the rest of europe is harder and more expensive now, of course it is better to do it in ireland (geographically close and speaks english natively) or somewhere else (idk, Germany or something).

This is very sad, we love our chips

I didn&#x27;t consider going to my local Chinese buffet for dinner because the health inspector found rat shit all over the kitchen.
