unbeliever Posted June 15, 2016 Share Posted June 15, 2016 (edited) Just watching mary Beards Ultimate Rome, the last episode about its fall, the similarities are astonishing, substitute EU for Rome and she could be talking about now. Righto. L00b: Stand by with the golden sickle. Time to brew up some magic potion. Obelix can hold them off until you're ready.

Shef1985 Posted June 15, 2016 Share Posted June 15, 2016 Well if they publish a week on Friday, I think you're going to own the UKIP conspiracy theorists an apology. I was being dramatic...I think UKIP are suggesting our contribution will increase and they don't want us to know. Yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They might ask for a budget increase. They always have before. I don't think they can do much about the rebate until 2020. There's nothing to stop them diverting spending on the UK to the poorer nations. That would actually increase the rebate, but still put up the gross and net UK contributions.

unbeliever Posted June 15, 2016 Share Posted June 15, 2016 Gove is even claiming his dad is a liar now. Just saw him on QT. Did nothing of the kind. His Dad is 79 years old and got called out of the blue by a Guardian journalist who manipulated him. He's already made himself clear to the BBC and is in complete support of Gove's accurate description of the events in question. Somebody needs to have words with that Journalist.

chalga Posted June 15, 2016 Share Posted June 15, 2016 Michael Gove has said in speeches and television interviews that his father’s firm “went to the wall” because of the EU’s fisheries policies, and that the common fisheries policy “destroyed” it. Ernest Gove told the Guardian that he did believe the industry in Scotland “more or less collapsed down” after the EU became involved in fisheries policy, but he said he sold his firm voluntarily, as a going concern. “It wasn’t any hardship or things like that. I just decided to call it a day and sold up my business and went on to work with someone else,” he said. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe we need some sort of thorough root and branch examination of press standards and ethics. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
