EU referendum

[Tim of the Oak]

Tory MP Sarah Wollaston has quit the campaign to leave the EU and will vote for Remain instead, she told the BBC.
Dr Wollaston, who is chairman of the health select committee, said Vote Leave's claim that Brexit would free up £350m for the NHS "simply isn't true".

Mate....all this does is show your hatred for Cameron.....you do know this vote is about the EU? and he's going to be your leader whether we stay or go?

That whole £350m for the NHS is the most appallingly transparent vote winner in a long time. I suppose with a few weeks left, there's still time for improved cancer research funding and a Children in Need bumper bonus too.
Might as well bring back the death penalty too now we can afford a new set of gallows - but we wouldn't be buying a guillotine from France!

 

[yep]

Lol. Is it OK to pay in euros ;-)

As you are not a politician may I ask for adequate and SUFFICIENT reasons for your comment, please

Soon to be Lady Wollaston I guess.

Was it the Commissioner appointed by Call me Dave or was it call me Dave himself? He tells us he didn't veto the proposal... I just don't know who to believe?

I am sure knowing politicians it wasn't technically a veto , it was similar or it was a threat of one so he's telling the truth in fact but not in spirit - that seems the norm , I'd always trust a bureaucrats truth over a politicians one

Proof that the Brexiters have been telling a few porkies!

Wollaston's mum used to be my GP so they are definitely not immigrants! At least in the modern sense that is!

No sterling. Once we leave the euro will be saying;

I will have to check up on it, but I think he only have expressed a desire not to increase the tariff (but wasn't the only one to not want the tariff on the Chinese raised) - that might constitute it not being a veto per se, or it may not even have been voted on - will have to check. Regardless he was against the increased tariff. The Americans placed a sky high tariff on Chinese steel - if there's anything the Americans do well, it's protectionism. Doesn't always work, but they give it a bloody good go.

 

[EalingBlue2]

so you want to support the Brish PM who denies vetoing tarrifs on Chinese steel? A PM who denied he had done this? A PM who says he tried to get the EU to impose tarrifs but failed!

The only truth Cameron has ever told is that "we're all in this together". Yes, the EU and the British Givernment are in it together, they are all at best being duplicitous at worst are down right liars. Take your choice.

I wouldn't support Cameron or the EU, not in any circumstances!

I struggle supporting Cameron as I don't like opportunistic liars but when it comes to lying and opportunism he is positively child's play compared to Boris or Ids or Farage and his politics are less nasty (relative I know).

I have to say I despair that anyone would vote in a vote as important like this and make decisions like this on the basis of not liking or agreeing with an individual - that goes both ways.

Cameron is a turd but not worth losing your job or house over, he is a turd but not one worth a 4 trillion dollar deficit and another 2008, he is a turd but not worth supporting Johnson over etc

Investing in Sterling was always a bad idea.
He can't beat his man and his finishing is poor.

Always heart warming to see an MP sticking to their principles

Showing a picture of Cameron changing his statement on Turkey, 6years later...has nothing to do with the argument of voting stay or go? We all would agree he's not been doing a great job with the country but that is a separate issue completely....and Cameron/Conservatives are going to be running this country whether we leave or not, atleast until the next general elections...so all you are doing is questioning the guy in one hand but in the other trusting him to fight for your rights when we leave?...sort of contradicts the statement you trying to make...apologies if I'm reading the message in the wrong way...

 

[yep]

As much as I hate to say it things are in the EU:


Nearly $1 billion of European Union funds were given out to fraudulent claimants last year, with the biggest concentrations of suspected false claims in Romania, Bulgaria and Hungary, data from EU investigators shows.

In an annual report published on Tuesday, the European Anti-Fraud Office (OLAF) concluded that 888 million euros ($989 million) were probably disbursed to dishonest claimants in 2015, a slight decline from 901 million the previous year.

That's true. Arguably, bojo's natural instinct would be for Remain and Dave's Brexit!

The Guardian is clear on the UK blocking the Chinese Tariff increase - with Cameron confirming they blocked it (according the Guardian)

The UK benefit fraud was £1.6 billion POUNDS. By that reckoning the EU's doing a stellar job and should probably take over handling our benefits.
