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.

Vicky and JB.

I live with an immigrant, who probably is more fluent in English than either of you will ever be.

Are both of you frightened of ghosts as well as immigrants?

Ps,

Do you have black shirts in your bottom drawers?

EU referendum: Households 'worse off' after Brexit
18 March 2016


If the UK leaves the European Union, British households could be on average as much as £1,700 a year worse off, a think tank has said.

In the longer term, the average cost to households could be up to £6,400, according to the Centre for Economic Performance.


It says a decline in trade would cost the economy "far more" than would be gained from lower EU contributions.

But Vote Leave described the claims as "ridiculous" and lacking "credibility".


The Centre for Economic Performance (CEP) is a think tank based at the London School of Economics.

In reaching its conclusions, the CEP starts from the standpoint that about half of the UK's trade is with the EU and that as a member of the EU the UK benefits from there
being fewer barriers to trade.

It says post-Brexit the UK would do less trade with the EU because there would be higher tariffs on goods. But also there would be other non-tariff barriers to trade, such as British exporters to the EU having to prove their goods were made in the UK.

Also in the longer term the UK would get less benefit from future market integration within the EU.

Best case scenario

According to the researchers, in the best case scenario the UK negotiates a deal with the EU similar to Norway's.

Norway is a member of the European Economic Area and has a free trade agreement with the EU, so there are no tariffs on trade between the two.

However, there are some non-tariff barriers to trade. After deducting the savings that would be made by the UK no longer having to make contributions to the EU budget, the researchers say there would be a fall in UK income of 1.3% - which equates to £850 a year per household.

Fred - Pile of Shite the first time! Repeating it won't make it anymore feasible. Vote Out!

chris - apart from the fact that all this belongs on the referendum thread, fred's c+p is no less valid than would be the counter from the exit camp
the only real fact is that no one actually knows what the effects of leaving might be, but that is not a good reason for staying in either

It is becoming clear that both sides will claim that they are right about their interpretation of in or out but the public will be no clearer come the referendum. It will come down to which choice the public fears the most. I will vote out but my choice is more to do with what the EU will become rather than our relationship with it.

hay you are forgetting the in campaign under the liar scumbag Cameron is just that lies lies lies the public are not stupid we now find out that the gov have with held the migrant numbers by over 1.3 m more in the uk
Cameron the dishonest pm no one believes anything he says he is a lame dog
has a right wing tory I want him gone he has destroyed the party for is own ends

vote out even M KING THE EU IS BANKRUPT king says if we do stay in the uk will be just apart of a failed system run by unelected nobodies

the reason we have so many immigrants who have come to the uk and still millions wanting to come is simple the eu is bankrupt no jobs no money no hope

Joke of the day!

Cameron 'absolutely' has confidence in Osborne - spokeswoman

That's Ozzy's swan song then!

Your most lucid post in a long time Tanker. Too many youngsters in the EU have little hope of a job. Too many older folk, Germany apart, want more from health and social services than they ever paid into.
A recipe for disaster and the more successful the UK is, the more it has to pay into the broken system.

"NHS" and "Social Services" are for the majority forms of "insurances" and can be evaluated in that manner.

Cancer sufferers who have been told that the NHS cannot provide the drugs they need due to the costs involved must be really pleased to see that the NHS has spent six figure sums on individual illegal immigrants.

Without "immigrants" working at various levels in the NHS and paying their taxes you wouldn't have an NHS.

Check the numbers of "immigrants" working in the NHS.

Your next surgical procedure may be carried out by an immigrant.

Vicky,

You are drawing conclusions by association.

A dangerous method of working.
