tzijlstra Posted March 24, 2016 Share Posted March 24, 2016 Googled it . By the way it says one would need 96 days to just read the ****e that these bandwagoners in the EU have come up with regarding these laws. Your scientific approach to life is overwhelmingly impressive I have to say. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WalkleyIan Posted March 30, 2016 Share Posted March 30, 2016 Just come through at work... public debate about the EU Referendum. Wednesday 20 April 2016. St Mary's Church, Bramall Lane, Sheffield, S2 4QZ, 6-8pm. The United Kingdom faces a momentous decision, whether to leave or to remain in the European Union. As voters will soon be asked to settle the issue in a referendum, there is a need for more information and impartial analysis. At this event we will debate the main questions with the help of academic specialists, and representatives from the voluntary and business sectors. Members of the audience will be given the chance to pose questions to the panel and discuss the effects for Sheffield and the region. The panel includes Chair Dr Matthew Wood, Crick Centre, University of Sheffield; Susan White, CEO of Voluntary Action Sheffield and member of the European Strategic investment Fund Board; Gary Bell Volunteer Advocate at ASSIST; Julie Kenny, Chair and CEO of Pyronix (Rotherham) and member of the Local Economic Partnership; Professor Simon Bulmer, University of Sheffield; and Professor Michael Keating, University of Aberdeen.

tzijlstra Posted March 31, 2016 Share Posted March 31, 2016 What are the panels views? Exit/not? No interest in a fixed pro-remain chat. You mean that you don't accept that if members of the public ask questions there are going to be both views represented? Or do you mean you can't abide the thought of actual debate?

WalkleyIan Posted March 31, 2016 Share Posted March 31, 2016 What are the panels views? Exit/not? No interest in a fixed pro-remain chat. Google them...that's what I did. Then make your own mind up on where each one might stand but the announcement says. "there is a need for more information and impartial analysis" That implies to me that they will be taking a neutral view for the purpose of the debate if nothing else. Anyway I've signed up. What harm can some rational debate do? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jgharston Posted March 31, 2016 Share Posted March 31, 2016 Interestingly, the poll on this forum is completely the opposite to two other forums I'm a member of - a highway engineering forum and an election anoraks forum. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
user2016 Posted March 31, 2016 Share Posted March 31, 2016 What bothers me isn't so much what the EU is today,its what it will be in 10 years. Im out.............. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted March 31, 2016 Share Posted March 31, 2016 It seems the truth about privatisation of nationalised industries(and starving steel and coal industries of public money) over the past 40 odd years, and the creeping privatisation of the NHS and schools, was/is to conform to the EU rules against state subsidy. The fact that it fits in with Tory ideology is purely coincidental, it happened under Labour too. And even if this rule is relatively recent the ruling establishment of this country, from both parties, saw it coming and implemented it anyway.

That doesn't surprise me, have you ever seen a political poll on here ever prove correct? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thatcher killed off coal well before the EU declared state-subsidy was ignorant. I can't trace it back to the precise declaration, but I know for a fact that the UK has always been a very conservative capitalist voice in the EU, even when Tony Blair was in charge. It is so easy to ignore that the UK had a very formative role in what the EU stands for, particularly at a time when the Brits all of a sudden decided the EU are potentially evil.
