Encourage Montenegro, Bosnia, Kosovo and other places to join the EU and then say "Yes now we definitely have to leave unless we want hordes of people from Montenegro, Bosnia, Kosovo and other places coming here." 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wee-Bey Posted May 14, 2018 Share Posted May 14, 2018 I long ago came to the conclusion that Brendan O'Neill doesn't actually believe in anything he writes and is just churning out this shite for a particular audience. Because quite frankly I refuse to believe that anyone could be this much of a contrarian, hypocritical c**t. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NotThePars Posted May 14, 2018 Share Posted May 14, 2018 Helen Lewis, of “coffee is middle class” fame with the galaxy brain take that “calling people ‘gammon’ is classist”. The same Helen Lewis who doesn’t know anybody working class and had to refer to her friend who went undercover on the dole when discussing unemployment. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not all Scottish fisherfolk in favour of brexit. Quote “Hard borders would be a disaster for us. Most of our prawns are sent right away to Europe in lorries filled with salt water tanks so they stay alive. That’s why we get more money for our product and even a short delay means fishermen don’t get paid,” he explains. “Any tariffs would hurt our margins and profitability. It would also dismantle 20 years of perfecting the current system — overnight.” Sinclair worries that officials are paying more attention to the louder Brexiteer voices in the fishing industry — notably east coast trawlermen who prioritize regaining access to waters — and have forgotten about smaller, more lucrative parts of the industry. “The way Brexit is looking, our future could be wiped out by a signature,” he says. https://www.politico.eu/article/brexit-scotland-fishing-industry-divide/ 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Inanimate Carbon Rod Posted May 15, 2018 Share Posted May 15, 2018 https://www.politico.eu/article/brexit-scotland-fishing-industry-divide/ No sympathy for the industry in general, those voices of sanity let the xenophobic morons speak for the industry and did nothing to counter their argument until things started to look bad for fishing. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The US is one country. The EU is not. After you have successfully applied for (and paid for) your ETIAS document, you must enter the Schengen area via the country to which you applied. You can of course move around once there but if you return home , then wish to go directly to another country (let's say to watch a football match or go on a stag do ) , you have to re-apply for (and pay for) another ETIAS document. No more spontaneous EU travel for Brits. Also Quote However, just because you have the ETIAS does not necessarily guarantee you entry into the EU countries. This is at the discretion of the border authorities. Source :- https://www.schengenvisainfo.com/etias/ 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Remember that global bank crisis? and the only time mortgages were any cheaper than they are now was before we were in the EU. Ok so we got our mortgage in May 2016 -£900 p/m, in the aftermath of the banking crisis, go to remortgage at the end of fixed term £1000 p/m for the same mortgage, no significant change in interest rates, ask mortgage advisor why, response - ‘lenders are predicting cost of living rise due to impact of brexit and are being stricter with mortgages’. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
