Thought Id start this one going because its rather dead on this board at the moment and I suppose all my usual muckers are either at the Stella tennis event watching Dim Tim (lose again) or at Henly Regatta eating cucumber sandwiches (they wish,...NOT).

Anyway please feel free to just talk to yourself blast away and let it go on any company or subject you wish. Just wish Id thought of this one before.

cheers GF.

i was not talking solely about economic policy, but about more far-reaching political implications

Referendum date officially June 23

It is interesting to look back at the comments on this thread over the last couple of years. A very common statement from several posters here was that Cameron was lying and he would never hold a referendum. It was especially said by UKIP supporters.

Several of us including Hilary said that the only way to get a referendum was to vote Conservative.

I must admit I didn't think he would chance it.

But perhaps the fix is in already?

perhaps that article is b4 the event .......
Martin Schultz launched an astounding attack on the Prime Minister, as the vital summit in Brussels kicked off in explosive style.

It might have been c, but he hasn't withdrawn the threat.

In any case, it highlights the problems in dealing with the tower of babble.

babel!
as far as i can see, it was all empty words as the agreement was ultimately unanimous

Await the reactions!

Watched it all last night and today . What made me laugh is just how stupid Corbyn was when interviewed ,didn't give any answers just kept saying how the Tory party was split .
Idiot , all parties will be split over this ,it's not about parties it's about individuals opinions from all parties .
Now i can see where Fred and Stan get their won't / can't answer a simple question from.

Astonishing hypocrisy from Cornyn. He has been listing reasons for staying in the EU, when he is opposed to it. He agreed to support staying in as the price of Hilary Benn staying on as Shadow Foreign Secretary. Corbyn wanted to campaign for out.

Cornyn sees the EU as the embodiment of Capitalism, especially in their treatment of Greece. He is also upset at the EU's attempts to crush emerging left wing governments such as Portugal, Spain and Greece. Then there is the rise of the right wing in places like Poland and Hungary.

and assorted bankrupt eastern european entities who fancy the juicy handouts

The EU is very unstable with plenty of members as unhappy as the UK. If we leave it may degenerate to the point where it harms us. As we trade so heavily with the EU, we have an I retest in it being successful whether we are in or out. We are currently suffering due to very poor growth in the EU. It could be even worse without us.
