phil752 Posted November 28, 2017 Share Posted November 28, 2017 Actually it isn’t. It’s actually very unrepresentative. -----How so? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
I1L2T3 Posted November 28, 2017 Share Posted November 28, 2017 -----How so? Are there Page Hall type issues in every town and city? Nope. Therefore unrepresentative. Next...... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magilla Posted November 29, 2017 Share Posted November 29, 2017 its just a good job the UK doesnt need the EU but the EU DOES need the UK eh? Well, 2 months ago it was €20bn on condition of a sweet deal. Now it's €100bn (that will *hopefully* end up around €50bn in a few decades) just to talk, with no guarantee of any deal at all. Only a few weeks left to solve/clarify the N.I border issue, or there won't be time to complete the trade deal at all since we're supposedly leaving no matter what in 2019. Comitting to that amount and then failing to secure a deal will be politically costly, so presumably lots of those "red line" issues will be quietly watered down/dropped. It seems like the government wasted a lot of time to look weak to the wider world and weaken their (and by extension our) negotiating position with the EU at the same time. A bit of an own goal I'm sure others will see things differently. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ENG601PM Posted November 29, 2017 Share Posted November 29, 2017 its the cold war all over again ---------- Post added 28-11-2017 at 21:00 ---------- its not nonsense, its mentioned here https://www.reuters.com/article/us-britain-eu-bill/uk-and-eu-agree-brexit-divorce-bill-uk-newspapers-idUSKBN1DS2G4 we pay 50 but i've even put it in bold for you You're one of those who doesn't understand the difference between debt and deficit either. No wonder that Marxist lecturers find it so easy to churn out so many easily led and feeling entitled graduates against such a lack of economic literacy at large. ---------- Post added 29-11-2017 at 06:15 ---------- https://www.irishtimes.com/business/economy/uk-bows-to-eu-demands-with-breakthrough-offer-on-brexit-bill-1.3308771 UK bows to EU demands with breakthrough offer on Brexit bill "Britain agrees to total liabilities worth €100bn but will aim to pay less than half" Anyone can get the currency wrong, you confused million with billion so I guess it's easy to do So, £89bn, but as mentioned is expected to be less after many decades of payments. Title says it all, UK caved, EU got what it asked for months ago. Concessions on ECJ next.... So.. bluster and deflection again, but no positive spin... ho hum. So sad for you And here's another one.

ENG601PM Posted November 29, 2017 Share Posted November 29, 2017 By the way Mel, I'm genuinely sorry to read about your current job situation and I hope that you get sorted out quickly. Please don't mistake our banter for a lack of empathy. Good luck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
I1L2T3 Posted November 29, 2017 Share Posted November 29, 2017 Are you sure about that? Yes of course I’m sure. Every town and city does not have a concentration of Roma like Page Hall does. If I’m wrong and they do then prove it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ez8004 Posted November 29, 2017 Share Posted November 29, 2017 You missed the point completely it seems. Make another thread about SMRs and Trident Making the point that your argument was rubbish. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davyboy Posted November 29, 2017 Share Posted November 29, 2017 This thread has become totally pointless with the same arguments time after time from the same posters. time to ignore it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
