Dodgy Dave too frightened to take part in head-to-head TV debates. So then, with a thoroughly depressing disregard for both democracy and the British electorate, David Cameron refuses to take part in any of the head-to-head TV debates during the EU referendum campaign. His decision is not just cowardly. It is an abrogation of his prime ministerial duty, which is to face his opponents in ...
With Germany pushing for the creation of an EU army with them taking leadership (of course), I think it imperative that we leave the EU: “German security policy has relevance — also far beyond our country,” the paper states. “Germany is willing to join early, decisively and substantially as a driving force in international debates . . . to take responsibility and assume leadership”. ...
EU Chief Juncker Warns UK Over ‘Deserters’ European Commission boss Jean-Claude Juncker has warned the UK that “deserters won’t be welcomed back with open arms”. In hard-hitting comments, which have sparked accusations of intimidation among eurosceptics, he said the UK would “have to bear the consequences” if it voted to quit the 28-member bloc. Juncker goes on to say that ...
@Dil The reason people have a problem with this event is because it is being financed by the taxpayer (BBC & Council Tax), yet are being ripped off as though it is a normal commercial venture. It is not comparable to a concert at the O2.

I only caught the last half of the Paxman programme, but what I saw of it was excellent, must catch the whole thing on iPlayer. I'm just surprised the BBC put this on BBC1 during peak time.
Outside of politics, Cameron's only real job (if you can call it that) was as head of PR for a media company, and that is the extent of his "talents" - spin & BS.
If we vote to leave the EU then we negotiate our own arrangements to trade with the EU, which of course, do not have to be the same as the Norwegian model.
LOL!
It depends what you call "facts" of course. It wasn't so long ago Osborne was stating quite categorically every household would be £4300 worse off by 2030 if we left the EU. The Treasury can't even accurately predict our finances in the short term, but here we had Osborne peddling figures for 14 year hence and presenting them as something factual and believable. Is it any wonder people ...
