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....

T.May is making ALL the right noises, The Eu will have to realize that there
cannot be free movement, and it should be made a red line, and made now
so it has plenty of time for it to sink in to the gangsters in Brussels and the
remainer dreamers in the UK...

the idea of "licenced immigration" so that specific skill shortages can be met is eminently sensible

Sensible and €U is an oxywhatsit.

Years ago we had a system called work permits

Sums it up!

Theresa May vows to protect troops from 'legal witch hunt' by opting out of European human rights rules

British soldiers will never again face a legal witch hunt, Theresa May will pledge as she says that European human rights laws will no longer apply on the battlefield.

In a joint announcement with Sir Michael Fallon, the Defence Secretary, the Prime Minister will say that UK troops will be protected from the “industry of vexatious claims that has pursued those who served in previous conflicts”.

Mrs May and Sir Michael will say that in future conflicts Britain will opt out of the European Convention on Human Rights (ECHR), protecting our frontline forces from “spurious” legal claims.

Their intervention is a major victory for soldiers, MPs and senior military figures who have fought against the hounding of troops who served in Iraq and Afghanistan over allegations that date back as long ago as 2003.

The Telegraph has repeatedly highlighted the plight of British troops facing criminal and civil allegations of abuse in the aftermath of Iraq and Afghanistan.

I'm beginning to like her ,she's saying all the right things ,lets hope she's for real .

Choice has been made Fred and as grannyboy says it gives the EU a chance to come to terms with the fact that there will be no negotiations over freedom of movement. EU now need to come up with a plan re trade and we'll get back to them on it.

Our stance is likely to find a lot of support among many voters in France and Germany which will work in our favour.

End of the day if we end up being treated like the rest of the world by the EU then so be it.

No point telling Fred that ,he's the same as Corbyn , it's what they want not what the people want.

Not a bad start!

Fred will be having conniptions ... :-)

Nothing will be what Fred wants .

"Fallon: British troops to be protected from war crimes claims"

Will that apply to those jolly foreigners who commit crimes against UK soldiers and citizens?

"Truss: Recruitment drive to tackle prison violence and drugs"

Will that need higher recruitment of prison officers?

I await to see who is queuing up to do deals with the UK in preference to the EU.

The trades will have similar regulations and rules, except that the UK will have little to do with their negotiation of the rules or regulations.

Edited for Dil.

I see Fallon is opening recruitment offices for the Arm Forces in Eton and Harrow and Roedean School.

There may be room for Dumbos as cannon fodder.

Yes hopefully Fred it will protect terrorists who come here to blow us up , no wonder you like Corbyn and Mc Donnell !!

Fred , regardless of what Obama said the UK is likely to do a deal with the US quicker than the EU will even though it's been negotiating one for years imo.

I don't understand your second sentence , trades with who ?

Think it's because we are still part of the EU Fred but I'm sure preliminary talks are already taking place with a number of countries.

Diane James the new head of UKIP has resigned after 18 days.
