The saying "you've got Buckley's" originates from Buckley's & Sons, a Canadian company known for its cough syrup, which is famously ineffective but has a catchy slogan: "It tastes awful. And it works." The phrase implies that someone has little to no chance of success, similar to saying "you've got no hope." It reflects the idea that just as the cough syrup's effectiveness is questionable, so too is the likelihood of the situation improving.
