Thought I'd start a new thread as this is going to be a major talking point this year...have not made up my mind yet...(unlike bucksfizz)....but thinking of voting for an exit as Europe is not doing Britain any good at all it seems....

Oh, the convenience of the edit facility.
Pity the poor EU "ambassador" to the US. He has been put at the back of the queue or should that be line? The US regards the EU as an institution, not a country. At the recent funeral of George HW Bush, he was seated last, after the head of FIFA presumably.
He might have got a clue as to why when Mike Pompeo asked in Brussels whether the EU is ensuring the interests of its member countries and their citizens are placed before the bureaucrats here? Or whether the more bureaucrats we have, the better the job gets done? Well we all know the answer to that.
Interesting how the so called socialists pooh-pooh the disgraceful levels of youth unemployment in the EU. Little wonder when they have the shining examples of the soviet era, Cuba and Venezuela to showcase how it should be done. Loonies.

Regarding the EIB, the UK, together with Italy, France and Germany, hold about 65% of the capital in the bank, in equal proportions. After Brexit, which will go ahead at the end of March despite the remainiacs throwing their toys out of the pram, the UK will be entitled to have its money returned although likely over some time. That should make up for all the scare tactics of the losers about possibly losing the facility as if that would be a disaster.

Before the days of Roll-on/Roll-off lorries were only there to pick up loads - no need to cross the Channel - Just more container ships needed, and in view of the drop in imports from China there should be plenty around at good rates.

not everything can or does move in containers
one of the major problems with uk has always been the massive cost of moving anything in/out of the country, which is one reason why we do very little biz in uk

Iturama & Dilbert,
I haven't edited either of the aforementioned posts. If ever I edit a post for any reason other than a spelling or grammar correction, I always clearly point out the edit.
If you are unable to clearly read my writing, then I suggest you either go to Specsavers or back to school!

Oh, and Grieve has another amendment lined up today which, hopefully, the Speaker will allow a vote upon. If that goes through, then Maggie Dismay will effectively become Parliament's Bitch at the end of next week, having no authority of her own on Brexit, and forced to take orders from others.
And the really funny thing is that the Tories can't get rid of her for another 11 months, and Corbyn is extremely unlikely to be able to get a vote of no confidence through.
Let them reap what they've sown!
:o)
