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....

The Scottish government’s North Sea revenues collapsed in 2015-16 to just £60m from £1.8bn a year earlier.
It is a far cry from the rewards reaped by Scotland in 2008-09, when North Sea revenues were £11.6bn.
The £60m revenue last year was the smallest on record since the Scottish parliament was convened in 1998-99. It represented a 78.5% share of North Sea revenues.
Well, let them go alone with that to spend. No doubt the wee one will blame it on Brexit and demand reparations from London...

don't worry; apparently the chinese already own most of the rigs, so they'll gallop to the rescue

Hear George's boys are still buying London?
Perhaps, they will become old fashioned landlords.

Corbyn is attempting to get into the Guineas Book of Records for the biggest ever defeat at a General Election
Should do it easily

It seems strange to me that Corbyn, who seems in the posted opinions of some is inconsequential, takes up so much effort time and attracts so many pejorative posts and derogatory comments.
Strange how a seemingly mild-mannered and quiet man, strikes so much fear in some.
I wonder what he has, that they haven't.

Interesting to see Trump is being supported by Farage.
Both rabble leaders.

corbyn assuredly doesn't, but his militant union backers and far left socialist creed certainly do
the only area of sympathy that i hold, though thank goodness i don't have to suffer from it, is the exorbitant fares and diabolical service offered by the rail companies
the dutch assuredly get screwed badly in other ways, but their rail service is excellent and very good value indeed - or so my experience of travelling from a'dam to r'dam shows

Dumbo,
Thank you for your explanation.
Did you understand it.

Manuel,
What are the Corbyn's policies you are allergic to?
Just interested.

PS.
Dumbo,
The UKIPPERS. Barmy right wingers and Brexities don't seem to have policies for the exit from the EU and can't even find the exit doors.
I am sure May will stitch them up.
Same as she has done with Boris, Davies, Fox and she will do the same with a few others.
Where have IDS, Redwood, Jenkins, Pat disappeared to?

On the other hand Holland has one of the highest tax rates in the world and most don't seem to mind. Perhaps the term "cheesehead" or "kaaskop" comes from their willingness to pay what is decreed.
For my sins, I had to attend company meetings in the Hague for a while. Cars in Holland are more expensive than in neighbouring Germany. Having just collected a 4x4 from Japan in Holland, I asked why they didn't just go across the border to buy but they wouldn't think of it. Maybe being so tall, they suffer from lack of oxygen to the brain or maybe they actually support the system.
