JRM is as bad as the rest of them.  A deal that was bad last week is still a bad deal this week, nothing has changed.  At least the DUP stick to their principles.

I love how the Remoaners accuse the Leave campaign of overspending and all other kinds of skullduggery, but conveniently forget the £9 million that Cameron spent on sending a leaflet to every home in the country imploring us to vote remain, and by some shenanigans he managed to avoid the spending limits imposed on the Remain campaign.  Don't lecture me about fair rules, Remoaners make me vomit.

In addition to all the fake signatures on this petition, we now learn that the originator has made threats against Theresa May's life, and even wrote about procuring a firearm.  Aren't these Remoaners a lovely bunch?

@Lynne Do you seriously think MPs pay any attention to petitions, online or otherwise.  I didn't realise you were so naive.

@S I'm glad you have acknowledged that the EU will have control over aspects of member states' taxation affairs, even if not all states agree with that.  You would be foolish to think there wouldn't be mission creep, and eventually income tax rates would come under the control of Brussels.  As it stands, the EU has to approve the national budget of states who are in that folly called the ...

And what effect do you think that petition will have?
