Re: Referendum is a load of crap.!!
Jimmy, you have a fat chance of that.
I would bet that most of those mentioned do not use cash so there is little likelihood of them getting any change. But, doesn't it just show the calibre of these people....and these are folk who we have(or have had) in government. Anyway, like I said before...if they like the Eu so much they can move to the continent...they aren't trees. I hope that the country goes from stregth to strength, just to show these metrpolitan no counts that the UK can stand on its own feet...and that we do not need to be sucked dry by the EU. |
Re: Referendum is a load of crap.!!
I'd love the country to improve vastly but something has to be done about the leeches at all levels be they politicians, advisors etc or at the other end of the spectrum the 'entitled' who draw benefits for a 'living'. I used to vote Labour and now I'm sounding more and more like a Daily Mail reader !

Re: Referendum is a load of crap.!!
Jimmy, it is about fairness.
How can it be fair for a benefit claimant to be better off than someone who is working full time, paying their dues. Benefits are meant to be a safety net, a helping hand...not a life style choice. I make no apology for telling it as I see it. The other thing that really gets my goat is the fact that governments have come and gone and done nothing to rectify the tax loopholes that corporate companies exploit. They are doing nothing illegal, but by not paying their whack(and they have an awful lot of 'whack') it means that the little man has to pay more....therefore has less disposable income to spend. If the likes of Google and Amazon, Starbucks and all those other large corporations paid what they really owed then we could have enough to look after the old, the disabled and the vulnerable. But let's get on with the business of leaving the EU....that should free up some resources. Let's look at re-appropriating the foreign aid budget. Let's not give to those countries who have their own space programs...let's make sure the countries we DO give to, use the money wisely perhaps with a proviso that where products they need are made in the U.K.that is where the money is spent. We have to hope that things will get better and that we will leave the EU eating our dust. You and I (I am guessing here) are the product of experience and hail from a different era. We can easily be cynical because we have lived long enough to have seen much and are surprised by little. |
Re: Referendum is a load of crap.!!
Apparently the new 50p coin commemorating Brexit has a missing Oxford Comma and should be boycotted according to Sir Philip Pullman.... WTF....
The wording on the coin is "Peace, prosperity and friendship with all nations.", but he says it should have a Oxford comma after 'prosperity'..... Do these people live in the same world as everyone else?????? It's a comma, that is optional, its purpose is to make a sentence clear, unambiguous, and understandable. The clever ones amongst you will have noticed I used and Oxford Comma........ |

A coin’s value as a collector’s item is often in inverse proportion to the number that were minted. That’s why the Kew Gardens 50p can sell for over £175.
So, I’ll be quite happy to hear of Remoaners throwing their Brexit 50p into the English Channel as I’ll be keeping any I come across. It’s just so funny to see how petty and childish are these self-appointed elites who, for once in their lives, have had to accept someone saying NO to them. |

If the comma is omitted and it does not alter the sentiment then what is the point of using it...well other than showing that you KNOW about it and how it is to be used....academic.

The current education system is totally different.
The children are doing stuff at primary school that I did not come across until secondary school....we did not get homework at primary school. I consider that my education during my school years was sub standard...except, it was suitable for the time....and they were really only educating us to be factory fodder. Now children are being taught to pass exams, but not really to think broadly...or to question WHAT they are being fed....or WHY they are being taught to think only as those in power want them to think....there has been a serious dumbing down of minds. This is because those who do not think broadly are easier to control and manipulate. The internet is a double edged sword....it gives people like me the ability to educate ourselves....but it is also insidious in that it can indoctrinate if you do not analyse what you are being told...and ask yourself the pertinent questions.

Re: Referendum is a load of crap.!!
I guess it all depends on how the electorate in, maybe, three of four countries act.
We have a German friend who tells us there is much disgruntlement amongst her countrymen and women about the EU. But, Germany is even more than ever the economic engine of the EU and, along with their inherited guilt about their neighbours, I doubt their politicians would want to be the ones to ‘destroy’ Europe (again). Italy could decide it’s not worth staying in. Since they adopted the Euro there’s been little or no economic growth. What’s to lose! But the EU wouldn’t collapse without Italy. France invented what’s become the EU to protect its peasant farmers and artisans from nasty Anglo-Saxon competition. The trouble with the French is that protesting against their government is an annual ritual, and their police are quite happy to smash French skulls. It’s no coincidence that Macron has exempted the police from the proposed pension cuts that will apply to all other public sector workers. So I doubt the French elite would have any qualms about ‘dealing with’ any anti-EU movement if it started to get close to power. The interesting one might be the Netherlands. I suspect Verhofstadt is but a lone extremist in a country that has lots of EU sceptics and, if you recall, voted against the early ‘constitution’ that eventually turned into the Lisbon Treaty (you remember, that was the one on which John Major wouldn’t allow us a referendum). But, then, it’s their Empire. Leave ‘em to it, I say. |
Re: Referendum is a load of crap.!!
That is a very erudite synopsis of the current climate.
I think that what might influence the aquatics a little is that there are going to have to be some hefty hikes in contributions in the coming months and years....and I guess it will also depend on how those still in the bloc view the economic situation here. Once we get out properly and can forge ahead economically (for that is the hope) then maybe that will be a motivating feature. Poland won't jump ship...it gets far more out than it puts in. The EU talk about 'level playing fields' yet they do not practice what they preach. How can it make sense for a country to contribute 7 billion Euros, but take 11 billion from the pot(by the way, those figures were plucked from the ether, they are not what Poland pay....or at least I don't think so). |
Re: Referendum is a load of crap.!!
I have just looked at the figures of what Poland contributes(these are figures from 2014 and are the latest record)
Poland pays in 3.5 billion Euros per annum, but receives 17.37 billion Euros back. So where does this extra money come from eh?.....14 billion Euros are coming out of some other mugs pocket. |

Absolute classic on BBC’s allegedly ‘flagship’ radio programme ‘Today’, today!
And if anyone has any doubt about that programme’s past present and, no doubt, future bias against Brexit, this was it. Interviewing someone towards the end of the programme about a U.K. company’s new technology being installed on the International Space Station, the male interviewer asked the person whether leaving the EU will adversely affect future work. There was a very slight pause before the person said ‘no’, and then corrected this well-briefed and educated BBC interviewer by telling him that the European Space Agency had nothing to do with the EU. We rest our case: BBC Radio 4 is institutionally biased against the British electorate. |

If you’re even more time-stressed, there’s a great insight about this very issue between 18:25mins and 21:24mins which reveals just why the Brexit vote was so important for our hard fought democracy. |

For some politicians the current media hysteria over a new flu virus appears to be a godsend.
Macron has confined the French to their homes and got rid of those pesky gilet jeunes at a stroke of his pen while he destroys their pensions.

I think the EU cancelled the trade talks in the hope that it would defer the final leaving date....but this is enshrined in law.
The trade talks do not need the physical presence of the negotiators.....many businesses conduct their affairs by video conferencing....so why can't the EU. The answer is that for every month we are not completely out, we pay 1 billion quid into their coffers. I have said it many times, they do not want us, or value us...they just want our contributions. And if we leave with no trade deals then we should pay them not one penny piece. |

I read somewhere that the BBC now accepts that certain parts of the country(namely regions where support for Brexit was strongest) were under represented and largely ignored.
That they have said this as a sop to opinion is just pathetic....and it is too little and way, way too late. Every question time audience was filled with people who represented what was going on in the metropolitan bubble....there was very little dissent even in places wher support for Brexit was strong....so the Beeb must have been selecting their audiences the way they select their panellists.
