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....

For those who haven't already read it, here is an interesting summary:

At a better bloody price than we've had with the EU for the past 40 odd years.

Fred , the pound goes down then it goes up and then it goes down and then it goes up etc etc.

Just the natural order of things.

Inflation is good, within reason.

ZIRP is killing everything, except the tossers who sunk the whole shooting match.

Dil,


"When my master adopted the Panglossian view of the universe I used no arguments that might cloud his serenity."

Spot on Dil. The pound is the lowest for 35 years, so 35 years ago the pound was lower than it is now, did the sky fall in then, no of course it didn't. The pound strengthened from there just as it will from wherever the low point is reached in this cycle.

We are powerless to harness nature!

May as well cop out.

certainly it has been shown that gov't intervention cannot stop currency fluctuations
by and large, exchange rates are driven more by sentiment and impetus than by logic

the recovery in oil prices similarly, as can be seen at the moment

Brexit regret:6% of Leavers regret vote + 4% are undecided.. Enough to have changed the outcome of the referendum.

No one asked me , polls again what a load of rubbish .

A bit like the recent referendum.

No that was democracy something you wouldn't understand ,we voted OUT !!! hooray .. I can't wait ..

Bullshit of the purest ray serene!


Supposedly a 28000 sample, but they don't say what the breakdown was (NW1)?

About time the B@stards for the EU ( especially "Tusk" ) stop interfering with the UK brexit and trying to destabilize the outcome

UK PM May rejects suggestion by EU's Tusk that Brexit may not happen - spokeswoman

LONDON, Oct 14 (Reuters) - Britain is committed to leaving the European Union, a spokeswoman for Prime Minister Theresa May said on Friday, slapping down a suggestion from European Council President Donald Tusk that the country might ultimately change its mind.

Tusk said on Thursday that Britain might ultimately decide not to leave the EU as it will not offer London any softer terms than a damaging "hard Brexit".

"The prime minister has been very clear ... that the British people have made their decision and we are now going to get on with that, with taking the UK out of the EU and on making the most of the opportunities ahead," the spokeswoman said.

She also said May planned to have held substantive bilateral meetings with the leaders of the other 27 European Union countries by the time she attends a European Council meeting in December.

QT last night was a hoot.

Emily Thornberry (who apparently is a Barrister) has certainly proven that intelligence is not necessarily aligned with common sense. She was utterly lambasted for her comments on Brexit. As one of the more (supposed) able members of the shadow cabinet it's no wonder that the Labour party is viewed as a 'dead man walking.'

She's very good at shouting people down...and it helps that Dimblebum is afraid of her (cant blame him there)

re - EU's Tusk that Brexit may not happen

Imagine how many Poles will move back home ( not push but unhappy to be out of EU) and the problems that this would cause for the economy and welfare.

The new one's will not able to stay like the old ones, therefor no income like now for the Country ( well know that they send the money ear here back home )

note : Tusk is a Polish citizen

Emily Thornberry brilliant viewing 3 minutes .
