    Brexit, for once some facts.

    I'm not normally a fan of O'Leary but he is hugely successful at what he does. In this instance, I'm sure he's unlikely to be cutting off his nose to spite his face so I wouldn't want to call his bluff! Tom

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    I'm bound to say I think the 'Woosh' position in this interminable discussion is simply ridiculous. Whatever the rights and wrongs of tender processes, local businesses v foreign competition, and regardless of whether or not HMRC get to grips with illegal trading, eBay, Amazon and the Chinese...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    The man largely responsible for the mass migration of human traffic out of Africa and the middle-east, Tony B-liar, has entered the political fray over 'Brexit'. This creature is every bit as much a war criminal as Adolf Hitler, Biljana Plavsic, Radovan Karadžić or Slobodan Milošević yet he is...

    'The Canary' has an interesting piece today about funding issues surrounding the 'Brexit' campaign. Here's the link to the web page: http://www.thecanary.co/2017/02/16/looming-brexit-bombshell-make-many-people-angry/ Tom

    So much intrigue and secrecy!......all from a guy who seems unable to grasp the difference between free speech and libel.....or perhaps it's an honour thing? Maybe a written question to the EU could unravel this problem? Tom

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    You really seem to have misplaced any capacity you ever might have possessed for joined-up thinking with stupid questions like that. It doesn't really merit a response but I'll just say it certainly wasn't due to EU interference so perhaps you should check-out the tory government's policies on...

    Ok, you have now convinced me that you have really lost the plot. Not only that; you are now turning into Donald Rumsfeld..... ......."The message is that there are known knowns. There are things we know that we know. There are known unknowns. That is to say there are things that we now know...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    How will secession from the EU help improve this kind of tragic situation? Those who voted for 'Brexit', blaming all the ills of the UK on our EU membership because they were so thick they could not distinguish between socially-crippling, tory policies and EU membership benefits may well find...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    The 'Brexidiots' are deep in denial and can't bring themselves to admit that they have been 'done up like a kipper' by the lying cheats and shysters of the tory and UKIP parties. It's exactly the same as striding out across any central London thoroughfare junction when the little pedestrian...

    Intelligent people understand that! - unsurprisingly, those are the people who voted to remain in the EU and still believe that is the best future for the UK. Tom

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    Today's Guardian, amongst other news and fake-news providers, has this to say about the tory government's 'Brexit' plans and how they are likely to impact upon both UK ex-pats in the EU and EU citizens living here. I find this situation appalling and rather chilling...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    So, now the EU has ordered an inquiry into the 'gig economy' in the UK which causes a tax shortfall for the exchequer of billions of pounds each year. It seems that a number of self-employed workers pay little or no tax and the companies who provide them with work avoid NI contributions under...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    If anyone is so hard-hearted as not to care about the people who have fled the eternal war in the middle-east, perhaps you might be concerned about what this evil, fascist government is doing, right here, right now. If you value the freedoms we in the UK have enjoyed for centuries, then you...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    Once again, 'The Canary' has published something that will be conveniently overlooked in most of the mainstream media. It shames the British people that our government can eschew its humanitarian responsibility in regard to refugees while smaller nations have taken in tens of thousands more...

    It saddens me that we appear to no longer have the engineering ability to both design and build our own nuclear power stations. At the start of the 1970s, I was involved in the construction of Dungeness B station which, at that time, was the first of the new, British designed AGR stations. It...
