Top Cats Hat Posted June 7, 2018 Share Posted June 7, 2018 Remaining in the EU and it's Thatcherite Single Market protects bosses profits and stops governments from implementing pro-worker policies. EU rules on opening up public services to 'competition' block the full nationalisation of services. You sound as though you spend too much time browsing crank, conspiracy theory websites and chatting with too many others who do the same. You need to get out more!

Car Boot Posted June 7, 2018 Share Posted June 7, 2018 German car maker Audi CEO Rupert Stadler has called for a tariff-free trade deal with the UK. Speaking at the Shenzhen motor show in China, he said "We don’t want tariffs. I’m a big fan of fair trade and free trade. Great Britain is a big market for Audi. It’s a very important market for us. We love to sell cars to Great Britain." Unfortunately, the out of touch EU Commission prefers to administer an economic punishment beating to the UK for daring to leave it's failing club. This will not only hurt the UK, but will cost jobs in EU member states where unemployment is already at high levels. The unemployment rate in the Eurozone was 8.5 per cent in April. The unemployment rate in the UK is currently 4.2 per cent. https://www.metro.news/audi-boss-we-must-have-tariff-free-trade-with-uk/1089842/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tzijlstra Posted June 7, 2018 Share Posted June 7, 2018 You do understand that there would be no mass immigration if the rich and powerful didn't greatly desire it? Surely nobody actually believes that it's the poorest in society who crave the importation of cheap migrant labour? Rather than a wealthy elite who see increased competition as one way to help maximise profits. Remaining in the EU and it's Thatcherite Single Market protects bosses profits and stops governments from implementing pro-worker policies. EU rules on opening up public services to 'competition' block the full nationalisation of services. Time to dump the single market and customs union. Time to dump the bosses front, the EU. Waffling again. Look up the figures on the countries with the greatest income disparity in the world. The UK is pretty damned high on that list, least disparity? Mostly countries in the EU. The rich and powerful will be able to run this country even more in the way they want without the EU. What papers were pro-Brexit again? The ones run by Rupert Murdoch? Thanks for understanding...

Top Cats Hat Posted June 7, 2018 Share Posted June 7, 2018 https://www.theguardian.com/politics/ng-interactive/2018/jan/26/guardian-icm-brexit-poll-full-results I know it's a couple of months out of date now but if you scroll down to the section titled Full Results, you can see a quite well laid out graphical analysis of where support and opposition to Brexit lies. No real surprises there but it does show quite clearly that if you are unemployed and in the 'lowest social class' (DE) you are more likely to support Brexit than if you are employed and in a 'higher' social class. This reinforces the widely held theory that voting Brexit for many, was a protest vote rather than a carefully thought out analysis of Britain's economic future. One thing that struck me as odd was if you are in part time work you were more likely to support remain than a full time worker. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It shows a clear difference for Social class! What can we get from that? Social class really means how rich are you, so those with assets voted remain, whilst the poor voted leave.

Top Cats Hat Posted June 7, 2018 Share Posted June 7, 2018 funnily enough London is the richest, so its not because of the EU, picking on the UK, its a local issue because of british politricks There's a very strong argument that some of those areas would be even worse off if it wasn't for EU intervention.

Litotes Posted June 7, 2018 Share Posted June 7, 2018 The unemployment rate in the Eurozone was 8.5 per cent in April. The unemployment rate in the UK is currently 4.2 per cent. And? You do realise that the unemployment rate is calculated differently in different countries in the EU don't you? Your Boris has just said "You've got to face the fact there may now be a meltdown. OK?" How are you going to deal with the meltdown? You still haven't answered the Irish question - the people in charge have just proposed pushing it into the (not so long) grass, but it is still a fundamental problem. What is your solution to that then? Or are you just going to remain silent again and keep posting inane drivel from the Express and the Mail?

Magilla Posted June 8, 2018 Share Posted June 8, 2018 Or are you just going to remain silent again and keep posting inane drivel from the Express and the Mail? Should be interesting to see the tack the Mail takes moving forward now Dacre is out and the new editor is a remainer (apparently). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
