  1. I've got Premier Sports player for the Pro 14 Rugby. £9.99 a month and good quality casting onto your TV.
  2. I'm comparing lemons with lemons - all Governments indulge in rule-bending when it suits them, so let's not call out only those in the EU. You can't compare QE which has basically had the effect of giving free money to the wealthy and something like nationalising the trains which would remove private profit.
  3. Well no. You are comparing apples and oranges. EU rules about private competition in public transport or utilities are in no way comparable to QE policies.
  4. A graph of house prices in newly built urbanisations full of British pensioners would be more relevant.
  5. Labour abstentions won't see it passed if Tories rebel. The government need votes not abstentions.
  6. The EU love QE nowadays so I doubt it's under any threat.
  7. Things are beginning to come clearer. Jess Phillips and Chukka have both parroted the line that this is only the withdrawal agreement and supporting it doesn't mean supporting Tory Brexit.
  8. And those who oppose the "state aid" restrictions limiting government intervention in markets.
  9. How much did your house depreciate in the three years?
  10. The status of NI isn't changing anything for the people who need to change from Yes to No. No one gives a f**k about NI in the scheme of things. The SNP will have to solve the currency problem and the English border issue before Indyref2.
  11. Reid into shore up the scrum. Toolis to target their dodgy line out. Skinner favoured in the backrow over Strauss. Peter Horne over Dunbar prioritising attack.
  12. https://www.channel4.com/news/major-new-brexit-poll-shows-voters-swinging-towards-remain A Channel 4 News report from last week. 36% is very significant.
  13. He is one of the few MPs who shares the views of a significant part of the country who want a Hard Brexit. The BBC have to represent the plurality of views on this issue. There is the government view, the opposition view, the pro remain view represented by Grieve, Chukka, Khan, Soubry and the fourth perspective is pro leave.
  14. That's down to the structure of Stormont. The power sharing arrangement has meant voters don't have much choice but to vote along unionist/nationalist lines ignoring other policies.
  15. I'm not so sure. If the DUP aren't onside we are heading for an election and a new PM, I doubt many cabinet ministers will be keen to go down in a blaze of glory with Theresa.
  16. Not even that. Only EU leaders and the UK PM and Brexit dept have the details at the moment.
  17. That's a bit arse backwards. Dublin can't have political control over Northern Ireland before the democratic issues are resolved.
  18. NI will have Dublin representing them in Brussels. This is great news.... About time. And how do they vote people out in Dublin?
  19. The point about NI being subject to EU rules with zero representation in Brussels is a valid one. If the DUP really are against this then we are surely heading for an election.
  20. It's going to be great seeing who abandons the principles they have been banging on about for the past year to get whatever the EU have given May through Parliament.
  21. https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/rugby-union/46182640 Red Tim Swinson unionising Scottish professional rugby.
  22. Mueller must have discovered that Putin personally invented and designed the branding of Brain Force to mind control Americans.
  23. There is zero chance the USA will let the EU take control of their own defence anyway so it's a moot point.
