A new day, and I wonder how the tech industry is being affected by the Brexit vote. After all, we’re not actually out of the EU yet, are we? We have at least two year’s worth of membership to go. So I would expect that funding from the EU for various projects will remain in place for the time being. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/technology-36903214Ah. I see. Hmm. Oh, well. If we take the blind optimism of the Brexiteers as the default position on such news, then everything will be OK.

Meanwhile, Alastair Campbell has written a screen on why Leavers aren”t piping down and accepting the Leave vote. He’s probbaly right. http://www.theneweuropean.co.uk/article ... _1_4626810

We build cars. OK, the majority of cars we build are for foreign owned companies, but nevertheless, we do the donkey work. Or, rather, we watch the robots doing the money work. You know what I mean. So, how’s the car making doing post Brexit vote? http://www.telegraph.co.uk/business/201 ... wake-of-b/I see. That’s going well too, then.

So, I was thinking, how will the film and possibly the entertainment industry here in the UK be affected by Brexit? https://www.theguardian.com/film/2016/a ... rexit-voteOK, so the demise of a Mrs Brown’s Boys movie isn’t one that will send me into paroxysms of anger at Leave voters, but it does seem that if a highly successful franchise is finding that funding isn’t as good as as it was before the vote, then what genius new things will we be missing out on because the funding has collapsed? Both the BBC and Channel 4 use EU funding to make movies, and they take risks. Clearly this will cause a contraction in the arts.

A game the two actors are no longer with us. I would like to think the Guardian would have happily paid them to reprise their roles for that.

http://www.bbc.com/news/uk-politics-37060430Hell of a cost, and you can expect funding to dip significantly after 2020.

Right, so this whole 'austerity' thing.. we can find 4.5 BILLION pounds a year extra to pay for Brexit can we? So why couldn't we find that when Brexit wasn't an issue?

You aren't suggesting Gideon was playing games, are you? Not the man who curiously give £3m to China on the basis of, er, football?

Looks like a good chunk of that £350 million a week destined for the NHS will be going elsewhere.

You know the WTO terms for trading with the EU are utterly horrendous right? I mean properly bad? Saying the the EU negotiators "Give us what we want or we'll go with the WTO regulations!" is rather like saying to the EU negotiators "If you don't give what I want, I'm going to repeatedly hit myself in the nut sack with this hammer!" So yeah, let's do that and see how far it gets us.

That can only be a good thing. The first film was terrible. It didn't transfer from TV to film at all well.
