Not sure they will have anyone to build a partition if they turf out all the hardworking Poles. paul wright, bordon, United Kingdom, less than a minute ago can someone start a partition to ask the english people if we would like scotland to leave the uk, i would be the first to vote for them to go and then they can join the eu. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

carpetmonster Posted September 11, 2019 Share Posted September 11, 2019 What? This lie, where the courts threw the complaint out? https://www.theguardian.com/politics/2019/jun/07/boris-johnson-wins-court-challenge-over-350m-brexit-claims I believe the £350m per week was a gross number and therefor misleading. £200-250m would have been the more accurate net figure. But whatever is the right number, it amounts to £10bn to £17bn pa. The UK state spends over £800bn pa. £10-£17bn is neither here nor there. The Brexit decision is one of principle - do you want to be part of an emerging United States of Europe? Or do you want to be a smaller more independent unit with closer trade links to the rest of the world and (largely) free from EU rules/laws. There are plusses and minuses on both sides of that decision. But surely to fck the decision didn't rest on 1-2% of UK government expenditure. Would you have voted differently if the number on the bus was £500m pa? Of course,not. Do you think any newly independent peoples -e.g. the Irish in the 1920s should have concluded actually they might be a few % points financially better off as part of the union with the bigger neighbouring state and therefor they shouldn't really want their independence. Of course not. It's a decision of principle, not pennies. btw, you need to come up with better insults than soup-related pish.And either way, if you believed Boris was going to give an extra two bob to the NHS then you're even dafter than evidence thus far suggests. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

According to the Guardian, Quote People returning from the EU would have the choice of continuing to purchase and bring home unlimited amounts of cigarettes and alcohol with duty paid – as is the case now – or to buy limited amounts at duty-free shops in EU countries instead. According to figures provided by the Treasury, someone buying two crates of beer would save £12. I always found it cheaper to buy booze locally in Spain than at the duty free in the airport. Was surprised at the gov forsaking all that duty but then realised it's obviously just another lie to suck in the suckers 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldbitterandgrumpy Posted September 11, 2019 Share Posted September 11, 2019 (edited) The Mail comments section never fails to entertain. Desperately misinformed opinions that look as if they've been typed by their 5 year old kids (whose spelling is on the same level as their parents).
