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....

I tried reading The Guardian once, too many smelling pistakes.

A Manu reading...well there's a surprise 😀

It was for the pictures really. Still feel pop-up versions would save printed editions.

Cheers,

Why don't he just promise students free education or summat , they'll flock over to Cons as they are intelligent sorts . ( or maybe just lie )

Urgent progress is needed on a Brexit transition period to prevent City firms implementing contingency plans that could put up to 75,000 UK financial services sector jobs at risk, a leading industry lobby group has warned. In a plea to negotiators ahead of the n meeting later this week, TheCityUK also said that the stakes are high for the remaining 27 EU nations, where jobs and inward investment will be at risk if a two-year transition period cannot be agreed quickly.

Watch the UK become a colony of the EU and China over the next 4years of Maybe government.

I await the budget!

So so sad .

This is them VIC ,miserable , part of the lets talk Britain down brigade , i'd have them strung up for treason .

Lefties are always miseries.

Another day closer to leaving.

Rejoice the march to suicide has started for some.

It will be good to begging for leftovers from the table without being able to read the menu.

Perpetual Melancholy .

The problem with that argument, Fred, is that, with 1/7th of the EU's total GDP and population, yet only a 1/28th of a say of what's written on the menu, the UK wasn't able to eat rosbif and had to make do with frogs' legs and sauerkraut instead.

Personally, I quite like frogs' legs and sauerkraut, but I can understand why Dilbert prefers his lamb. :o)

In other words Freda you've had your chips .

You mean frites?

Flaming hell hilary , you Europeans .

Hilary don't apply logic to Fred you know it confuses him.

I'm looking forward to when we've finally left the EU and can cut down on some of our stupid re-cycling bins.

Local councils are mostly driven by the EU to make us re-cycle more of our rubbish. The EU Commission wants much less rubbish to go to landfill and the Landfill Directive sets very tough targets for councils. To force these to be met the UK Government imposes heavy fines on councils for landfill use. This adds to council tax bills and encourages all these different bins.

I don't know about you but I am not too much against land fill because the site's 'hole' can always be earthed over and trees planted on it and which greatly adds to the character of the landscape in most instances too.

They've satisfactorily done this to quite a lot of sites of old collieries. ie just earthed them over and planted trees on the site.

Surely recycling is a good thing, Doc? Surely it's just a case of helping to make a better environment for our children and our childrens' children. And if the other 27 member states can meet their recycling targets, why can't the UK meet them too?

Or maybe you just don't like it because it's an EU law rather than a UK law?
