I wonder if the Remain camp had a 10 point lead in the polls, instead of lagging behind, that the extension would have been granted?
I'd say the majority, Mrs C. The whole immigration bollocks for a start... "can you tell the difference between 81 and 82 people". Net immigration is increasing the population equivalent to a city the size of Coventry every year. Totally unsustainable. "Turkey nowhere nearing joining the EU", but in fact is being fast-tracked to have visa-free travel in Schengen, which in effect is an ...
A lot of that cut'n'paste job is opinion and utter bilge, just a comfort read for the Remainiacs.
A massive cut-and-paste of Remain propaganda. Doesn't wash with me, Mrs C, still voting out.
I fail to see what Brexit has to do with our military capability, we have no defence pact with the EU, we get that security from our membership of NATO and have done since 1949. Although, Germany is pressing for the creation of a single EU army, that is one of the many things which is being kept under wraps until after June 23rd. As for asking if "our friends in Europe" would come to our aid ...
A quite astonishing story how EU leaders have been muzzled, and the EU Commission has gone into virtual lockdown until after the referendum. WHY EU LEADERS AREN'T DEBATING BREXIT David Cameron has asked EU leaders to keep out of the Brexit debate as milions of British citizens prepare to vote on their future in the European Union. The muzzling has led to political paralysis in ...
So the black economy, which is totally tax free to its users, is included in GDP figures which results in law-abiding citizens having to pay yet even more tax. Have we fallen through the looking-glass?
The "unexpected" bill also took into account black earnings such as drug dealing and prostitution, how on earth are those kind of figures supposed to be reliably calculated? And what a wonderful club we belong to, that thinks they should be included. I expect they wanted to charge VAT on them too.
And don't forget the EU should have published details of its intended new budget at the end of May, but has deliberately held off until after the referendum, you have to ask yourself why it has done this. Should we vote to remain, it is impossible to project with any certainty what we will be paying into the EU over the next few years. Remember that surprise £1.7bn bill we were presented with ...
Mrs C has a long history on this forum, with so many different aliases it's hard to remember all of them now. And yes, the webmaster has booted her off at least twice, but she insists on coming back under yet another name, though is instantly recognisable whatever name is used.
