That clip in unkind. Hoey is a fucking moron who should not be put through intellectual challenges.My god, I find myself agreeing with Ken. What has the world come to????!? ;-)
My life isn't shit but I don't want to live in a concrete jungle. Are you happy with the strain on public services, the cramped new build housing estates, squeezing onto public transport or being stuck for hours in traffic? We're reaching the country's limit of people IMO whilst keeping a reasonable standard of living. Staying in the EU could push us over that precipice.
Bearing in mind most of our monarchy and aristocracy came first from France and then from the Netherlands , Scotland or Germany I would suggest we were constantly being told where we could and couldn't fish etc.
Hell, a very large chunk of our monarchs or in Alberts case de facto monarchs didn't even bother to learn the language. Our head of state was speaking German less than 200 years ago.
We are the 5th biggest economy - a little over a century ago we were the biggest , 5th is a state of continued decline not a massive triumph . I can't wait to hear the Italian out voters citing their magnificence when the Romans ruled.
There is confidence but in a globalising world where increasing cooperation is going to be needed just to tax business and individuals , where borders are becoming less relevant some people believe in moving to the future rather than trying to bring back past glories and some Victorian idea of the nation state
I don't know why the Brexit campaign don't use Mervyn King more - if the remain camp's whole campaign is based on what Carney, Osbourne and the IMF are saying then they might as well fight fire with fire. I'm sure he'll be discredited somehow even though he was governor of the BOE since 2003 and chief economist since 1991 - let's see if the remain campaigners can convert his image to a degenerative crack head as well as the brexiters manage on figures on the oppposing side.
The result of this referendum will basically come down to who gets scared the most (Remain winning hands down) and how many of the 18-25 year olds can be arsed to make their way to a polling station. strange way to determine an important issue...
What a load of tosh. The monarchy hasn't been telling anyone in this country what to do for far more than the 200 years you refer to and who cares what language they spoke in any case?!
Really, so she meets the pm every week for a shag then?
Blow job more likely
