The £4300 per person and half million unemployed we were all threatened with, these represent "truth", do they? quite possibly. We don't have a crystal ball. But I wonder what was in the government's reports that they won't publish. Something so awful that Davis would rather be accused of Contempt of Parliament than tell us. What a **** up brexit is! TW |

Bearing in mind that Gore's bit of self-serving propaganda has been widely criticised and generally dismissed, your analogy is probably a lot more apt than you intended it to be. We'll all be driving electric cars soon. They need to be improved a huge amount before that is likely. However, we do appear to being forced to drive hybrids in future. I quite fancy an electric car when my existing diesel finally gives up. Probably have to get onto Economy 7 for the electricity first though. _Gove's_ propaganda? |

Plus, unless we stay in the customs union, we won't be able to have an open border with the ROI. Yes we will. We can simply choose not to create one.

You're really having to scrape the bottom of the barrel. The British people were well and truly lied to. The true net cost of membership is £100m a week = £5bn a year. Plus a lot of money directed where we don't necessarily want it to go. That's partly true. However, we have already promised the farmers (the main recipients) that they'll continue to get the same feather bedding they are used to. And the news that we have now offered to pay £50bn in exit costs. This is all ********? The Lisbon Treaty, so I read, defines the EU as a person - responsible for its own debts. Meaning we should not be paying anything. Brexiteers seem to be utterly detached from reality. Plus, our industries will struggle hugely once we are out of the EU, unless we stay in the customs union. Must be why they're all lining up to invest here. Last I heard, investment decisions amounting to £50bn had been put on hold. Plus, unless we stay in the customs union, we won't be able to have an open border with the ROI. Yes we will. We can simply choose not to create one. We won't be able to have any tariffs, because the goods will simply come across the border with the ROI. You need to stop the wishful thinking. |

There are other examples of open borders where in theory they should have full closed borders. And, of course, we'll be able to stay in the customs union and control our borders. Corse that possible. Britain currently controls its borders to the EU, just has to let any EUian who wants to move to Britain to do so. Britain outside the EU wont have to do that anymore. All that Brexit will achieve is misery. Even sillier than you usually manage, and thats saying something. It won't even satisfy the bigots by keeping out the immigrants. But will allow Britain to be selective about which immigrants it allows. |

I personally think there;s more india doctors than Polsih or romanain doctors. But what I don't understand is why trade and immigration has to be linked. It's what the Indians want. I didn't think india was in the EU. (sigh) They won't agree a good trade deal post-Brexit unless we allow more Indians to coem here. Lies! |

It never said the *ENTIRE* £350m should go to the NHS - it said let's fund the NHS instead of sending all that money to Brussels. That '£350 million' soon became many times that if everything leave suggested it could be used for was implemented. But Brexiteers have been shown to have the maths of a poor 5 year old. Still much better than Dianne Abbott or any other socialist! |

We'll all be driving electric cars soon. Project fear is the bollix spouted by brain dead remainers. So, it's ******** to suggest that the £350m per week bonus to the NHS was simply a lie? 1. Nobody promised £350m 2. It was a serving suggestion by Vote Leave, a cross-party referendum team. They aren't in Govt. 3. It never said the *ENTIRE* £350m should go to the NHS - it said let's fund the NHS instead of sending all that money to Brussels. So yes, your suggestion *is* ********. You're really having to scrape the bottom of the barrel. The British people were well and truly lied to. The true net cost of membership is £100m a week = £5bn a year. Plus a lot of money directed where we don't necessarily want it to go. That's partly true. However, we have already promised the farmers (the main recipients) that they'll continue to get the same feather bedding they are used to. And the news that we have now offered to pay £50bn in exit costs. This is all ********? The Lisbon Treaty, so I read, defines the EU as a person - responsible for its own debts. Meaning we should not be paying anything. Brexiteers seem to be utterly detached from reality. Plus, our industries will struggle hugely once we are out of the EU, unless we stay in the customs union. Must be why they're all lining up to invest here. Last I heard, investment decisions amounting to £50bn had been put on hold. Plus, unless we stay in the customs union, we won't be able to have an open border with the ROI. Yes we will. We can simply choose not to create one. We won't be able to have any tariffs, Bull****. And there arent that many tariffs left now anyway. because the goods will simply come across the border with the ROI. No one is going to bother with most of the high volume imports and it isnt even possible with many of them, they have to keep coming thru the existing ports and airports. You need to stop the wishful thinking. Pity about the other open borders. |

There is no other way with immigration from the EU, that something the EU imposes on all EU member countrys. Particularly as, once the dust has settled, we'll continue to have unlimited immigration. Even sillier than you usually manage, and thats saying something. What else does an open border with the ROI mean? That far fewer will bother to go that route than currently use the more convenient way they currently arrive. |
