"latest news Marks and Spencer are closing 11 Shops." - Marks and Spencer is a British retailer that is closing 11 shops (in France where Dianne lives, though she doesn't specify that this is where the closings are occuring - source: https://www.bbc.com/news/business-58582860) - apparently this also the latest news in France or that Dianne has read

"Stores down due to Brexit...." - apparently, the news is reporting that these stores are closing as a result of financial difficulties incurred by Brexit

"Pants I say...." - 'Pants' is british slang for "rubbish" or "nonsense". Whether Dianne is directing this light invective towards the explanation for the closures or rather simply the closures themselves is, so far, unclear
You got it wrong about the pants................

you could have been right on it but you wernt....weart= were not.
Pants because people use to always love M & S Pants....covers male and females bums for this example..
Well done now translate it in French...please don't though

@ Soundgarden + Trollheart: yeah, I think on reflection, that you are both right about "pants" and it is my correction was wrong. My apologies to Soundgarden.
My on-line posture as a hip Brit is now officially in shreds

"Snus in my anus" sounds like it could be a book by Dr. Seuss.
