The latest Brexit benefit is …pavement cafes. 19 tasty takedowns
As if pint bottles of wine, razor clams in the Thames Estuary, and changing the measurements on the exit signs in the Dartford Tunnel weren’t enough, there’s now yet another Brexit benefit.
It was all explained in this astonishing Daily Mail article.
It must be hard for Kemi Badenoch to be the Business Secretary without ever setting foot in an EU country, which is the only explanation for her apparent ignorance of Europe’s extensive and well-estalished pavement cafe culture.
People had a few things to say.

Thanks to Brexit, we can now have pavement cafes and dining. The French will be so jealous that they can't do this. pic.twitter.com/YVwGMf84jf

This guff is why our country’s in such a mess. Inane, dishonest headlines peddled by cynical rightwing papers and ministers to gaslight people into thinking Brexit is something to be proud of… and not the pile of shite they’ve really created.

I have never sat eating ice cream, pizza, paella or drinking beer or wine in a public space outside a bar in Italy, Spain or France.

These new Brexit freedoms also give Brits the opportunity to make long thin loaves of bread and ride around on bikes in striped Tshirts with strings of onions round our necks apparently… pic.twitter.com/NbIiY8OlNw

Just imagine the supreme jealousy Europeans will feel when they discover this 'Brexit freedom' of al fresco dining pic.twitter.com/JEaA0ZBzfH

Once you accept that it’s a mathematical impossibility that Kemi Badenoch could ever possibly be wrong about something, it takes the edge off the rage… I’d love to see her on Mastermind arguing over the answers
