    Brexit, for once some facts.

    Just a small point of etiquette, of which I am sure you are well aware. It will be Lord Farage, not Lord Nigel. Sir Nigel, as in Sir Nigel Farage is acceptable.

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    This is just a wild guess, but could that be because the Conservative party didn't have a candidate? I'm sorry Kudos, to say that there was a shift of 31% from Tory to Lib Dem when the Tory party didn't have a candidate is nonsense. Now that is more credible and could be an indicator. I'll...

    He's become a husband and his wife has had a baby during his F1 career. Each event costs 0.5 seconds per lap. He had no choice but to retire. I'm still surprised though.

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    flecc, I can't see how the airport made any difference. Both opposed it cancelling out the issue in terms of election advantage. That just left BREXIT, in or out of the EU. We already knew the mood in Richmond,

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    You know perfectly well what I meant. Prior to the referendum, the situation was predicted to be so bad, that in the event of a BREXIT win, the government would need to hold an emergency budget. That and many other "immediate" dire consequences have failed to materialise. In fact, the reverse...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    I note with a tinge of amusement that I have attracted a few "disagree" markers regarding my thoughts on the Richmond by-election. The remain camp seem to believe that because an anti BREXIT parliamentary candidate won, in an area which voted by over 70% in favour of remaining in the EU during...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    flecc, if you go into a room containing 10 people, 7 of whom don't want BREXIT, and ask them whether they would like BREXIT, or to remain in the EU, the majority will tell you that they want to remain in the EU. That is all that has happened in Richmond. If you ask all the people in all the...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    But by voting Lib Dem, they were voting against the airport, and against BREXIT. We know they hate BREXIT because over70% Voted against it in the referendum. Nothing new there. If they had voted for Goldsmith, they would not have been protesting against BREXIT. That was never going to happen, a...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    I don't know much about her or what she stands for. She and her team have clearly researched which noises she needs to make in order to get elected, but whether she actually believes in what she says remains to be seen. It's no surprise that an area which voted by over 70% to remain in the EU...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    "This is your decision. The government will implement what you decide." The words of the government prior to the referendum. Any leader going back on that will be haunted by it for a generation and will secure their party's place in opposition for a very long time. Richmond Park is in no way...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    Just watching a Labour MP on BBC News Room live trying to get a few RAF pilots and crews killed. They are advocating flying over Aleppo and dropping supplies. Where is the EU on this? If it's going to be done, shouldn't the EU be coordinating and supplying aircraft and crews from the member states?

    It's a schoolboy error to underestimate individuals & the public's mood. BREXIT Donald Trump The Conservative Party Adrian Edmondson is a really nice man. I have met him a few times and so have many of my colleagues. We all agree that he is kind and generous with his time. I don't know what...

    Following on from all of the excitement of, "the memo" we have all overlooked the appointment of Mr Paul Nuttall as the new United Kingdom Independence Party leader. I think that I speak for all contributors to this thread when I wish Mr Nuttall every success in his new role. Having single...
