It all had to do with Cameron trying to look after his buddies and dog whistling to try to put pressure on the EU. It backfired on him badly.So what does it have to do with immigration that both you and Ifwecouldjust... believed was a factor in swaying my decision to vote to leave?
Because it was things like this (albeit a relatively insignificant one but the bigger picture was soon made clear to us) that did.
I'm just telling you the truth mate. We were grateful for it as it benefited us but your reasons were far from altruistic and were in sterling's interests, not the euros.It obviously pains you so much to admit we helped bail you out?
It was no biggie, honest.
I’ve little doubt we will be there for you the next time as well.
Brexit doesn’t have to mean the end of our friendship and cooperation ;-)
Like me - you are hearing the sounds and anxiety of the proper rattled.I know it’s warm today and it’s been glorious a good end to a lovely day would be lancs smashing the yorkies this evening. However I think the swingometer has shifted and there are a few a bit annoyed on here
We now have an optimistic determined pm determined to deliver brexit
He has assembled a brexit cabinet who will support that aim
He has absolutely smashed Corbyn today at the despatch box
Corbyn and labour have formally come out as remain and they will split their vote with the Lib Dem’s in a GE.
Hardened labour leave voters will jump ship to Boris or bp.
His noises about no deal seem stronger and so hopefully the eu will take it seriously this time
There seems to be some noises around solutions to Ireland
I am for a long time quietly confident it could happen

Given Ireland's tax haven/evasion reward as the sixth wealthiest country on earth it's a bit rich to kick others for their attempts to follow that lucrative if disreputable path.That's the tax evasion one. He wanted to keep the Tories access to their offshore havens and wanted an out from the new legislation. He wasn't getting it. Nothing could ever have been ' forced' on the UK without their will anyway so most of it is nonsense.
It comes from being able to undertake thoughtful and objective anlysisIt’s odd that you’re speaking about the future in the past tense like it’s fact.
So if a person says that the EU's response to the reforms were what caused them to change their position on supporting the EU...It all had to do with Cameron trying to look after his buddies and dog whistling to try to put pressure on the EU. It backfired on him badly.
That's what you want, isn't it?We’ll be joining the Euro in 10 years if we leave with no-deal, so get used to it
Comparing Ireland to the likes of the Isle of Man and Cayman Islands is disingenuous.Given Ireland's tax haven/evasion reward as the sixth wealthiest country on earth it's a bit rich to kick others for their attempts to follow that lucrative if disreputable path.
You mean the response of "why don't you use the powers already available to you that are capable of doing exactly what you want"?So if a person says that the EU's response to the reforms were what caused them to change their position on supporting the EU...
The Irish don't just like they love Manx kippers and Jerk chicken - but to afford them in future you'll need follow us out of that disintegrating cartel.Comparing Ireland to the likes of the Isle of Man and Cayman Islands is disingenuous.
The referendum result is still important for many MPs who think Brexit is crap but the result should be respected (maybe fewer If they watch The Great Hack). But for more MPs that advisory referendum would not take precedence over saving the country from self-harm.I assume that as things currently stand the leave on 31 Oct is the default setting unless new legislation is passed? I don't claim to be an expert by any means on parliamentary process, but I very much doubt there is time for this or much else for that matter when one factors in the Westminster and EU summer recess.
I understand why the vote of Parliament should be considered more valid than the wish of the (unelected) PM, but by an extension of the same logic the decision of the 2016 referendum would of course take precedence over a few hundred souls in parliament. It seems Remainers are only happy to devolve power to the level at which their view wins.
Again, missing the point.You mean the response of "why don't you use the powers already available to you that are capable of doing exactly what you want"?
Mr Cameron got his explicit recognition that the EU has more than one currency.Precisely. So what did Cameron want in the reforms?
"An explicit recognition that the euro is not the only currency of the European Union, to ensure countries outside the eurozone are not materially disadvantaged. He also wanted safeguards that steps to further financial union cannot be imposed on non-eurozone members and the UK will not have to contribute to eurozone bailouts."
"Measures, the purpose of which is to further deepen the economic and monetary union, will be voluntary for member states whose currency is not the euro.
"Mutual respect between member states participating or not in the operation of the euro area will be ensured.
"Legal acts... [between eurozone countries] shall respect the internal market."
"But Mr Cameron ran into unexpectedly firm resistance from France on financial regulation. The French wanted to underline was that Britain would not win any "exceptions to the rules of the EU" - particularly in relation to regulation in the City - hence the addition of the "level playing field" line. Mr Cameron got his explicit recognition that the EU has more than one currency - but it does not go as far mandating "multiple currencies".
Now what about any of that says "immigration" to you?
You obviously don’t remember 1976.We are big enough to bail our own banks out mate if needed.
No running cap in hand from us.
You obviously don’t remember 1976.
I’d say it’s more related to a poor grasp of English grammar and reality.It comes from being able to undertake thoughtful and objective anlysis
