Fewer deaths, please.
Their terms and conditions are being changed, probably unilaterally. Thats the whole point.
As usual Pinko, you have your facts a bit muddled, did you get from the Daily Heil?
The report spans almost a decade of UK government policy decisions taken between 2001 and 2009. The lack of planning for the aftermath is arguably the most damning part of the whole affair.
P.S . I have only just bothered to read #746
I fear that as is almost always the case you are so wide of the mark on almost all counts when it comes to your transparent attempts to be offensive and, I guess, provoke a response.
Your comments on personal responsibility are particularly amusing.
Bye, Nige.
So at least I have one bit of good news today. I am sure others will disagree.
So I would guess the internal struggle that was due to see Carswell ousted has not worked in Farage’s favour. Is this the third time he has gone? Or was the last one so momentary it doesn’t count
oK i’ll bite
Can you imagine the OUTERS, if the result had gone against them indulging in the same thoroughly reprehensible behaviour? No. We would have accepted the result and got on with it – good or bad.
Actually I can imagine it, and worse, and as your sainted Nige said before the vote, ‘ 48% would be unfinished business’

I assume you meant all 16million who voted to stay? More ridiculous sterotyping
Seen any cuckoo’s amongst the clouds recently Pinko?
It appears that UKIP will soon be lacking in the MP department
Nige, it seems, is about to encourage UKIP to deselect Carswell
Call me what you like. I like a good laugh.
I think I’ll call you……………..John
The world is laughing……..at our expense at the turmoil, vacuum, call it what you will.
Just out of interest, when do you expect article 50 to be triggered?
Nige is however quite peripheral to any negotiations. Considering his boorish performance in the European parliament earlier in the week, which quite frankly made me ashamed to be British as many viewers abroad will have been disgusted by it reducing yet further our standing in the world, this is all to the good.
Not that article 50 has been invoked yet, so I suppose you could counter there are no negotiations anyway
If Mrs. May wins, it won’t happen till next year
Boris is playing the long game. He knows PM for the next few years is a poison chalice.
PM Gove would be a mistake, he has shown himself to be a ‘consummate politician’ which is of course short hand for a scheming two-faced backstabber and every time he tried to use an ‘expert’ opinion he’d get laughed out the house
To betray one friend might be considered unfortunate, but two………
Sadly in our post truth politics world maybe that doesn’t matter ?
Alternately it may all be part of the plan, from another website conspiracy theory #101
?..it’s plausible that there is a plot between Gove, his wife and Boris. They know someone needs to take the hit so engineering that an awkward email is ‘leaked’ (how exactly? Sent to a random member of the public who forwards it to Murdoch’s Sky news…) that puts a stick in BoJo’s spokes. Gove declares candidacy, takes the hit, BoJo returns to the fray untainted, Gove gets peerage down the road.
P.s. Anyone who Toby Young thinks is good PM material should be avoided.
Oh, just in case I hadn’t mentioned it before, I don’t think much of Pob
Re 741
Pinko, I’ll pass on your ‘Spineless children’ comments to my father, I’m sure he will find them quite as amusing as I do .
I think you may be unintentionally exaggerating the importance of sovereignty to a significant section of the leave voters. It is obviously very, very important to you but I would humbly suggest that you should not project your views on to all who made that choice.
The phrase ‘get my country back’ has different meanings to different parts of the electorate it would seem. A few it seems voted to get the ‘foreigners’ out.
In many parts of the country it seems that the far right and closet racists have taken the Leave vote to mean that 17 million people think it is now OK to say and act like this:

And of course I am saying that it is very clear that only a tiny fraction of those who voted to leave are far right or racist, and Boris to his credit has made his support for immigration and immigrants post the vote very plain but the campaign has seemed to encourage those to emerge from under the rocks they have been inhabiting.
my goodness, even Toby Jones seems to understand this now

Is it nonsense that S&P have dropped the UK’s rating by two ‘notches’? or that govt. Bonds have their worst ever yield?
On the issue of the ‘Plan’ an interesting comment by Nick Robinson
Last Thursday’s momentous vote was a vote to begin divorce proceedings. Or, if you like, to move out of the house we share with 27 other countries.
It did not, though, come with any plan – let alone an agreement – as to where we are moving next or what our relationship will be in future with those we used to share our life with.
No Plan B?
Asked a few days before the vote whether he had such a plan for the day after if the Leave campaign won Boris Johnson was brutally frank – in private at least. No was his answer.
He and other Leavers declared their hope that David Cameron would have one and would stay in office to implement it.
Yes Trekkie,
Liam Fox was very obviously referring to ‘Project Fear’.
How right he is.
No Pinko, he was not…….as you know full well
The UK has lost it’s AAA rating apparently
All the austerity, quantitive easing, fiscal tightening of belts since 2008 to maintain it.
One of the few countries in the world to do so.
Gone.
Government bonds are now running at 1 % yield making them deeply unattractive to investors.
Ah well, we have ‘control’ of our borders…so all is well
Actually your wrong…
Brexit will increase the risk of Europe descending into war, David Cameron will warn as he says that Britain will pay a high cost if “we turn our back” on the EU.
The Prime Minister will invoke Sir Winston Churchill and say that the foundation of the European Union has helped bring together countries that have been “at each others throats for decades”.
He will highlight the battles of Trafalgar, Blenheim, Waterloo and the two World Wars as evidence that Britain cannot pretend to be “immune from the consequences” of events in Europe.
Actually you are wrong, I specifically said the phrase “WWIII” which was a BoJoism
Pedants of the world unite
It was Boris who mentioned WWIII, not the Remain campaign. So actually that was another lie from him.
To Boris, Pob and Nige
I could not dig; I dared not rob:
Therefore I lied to please the mob.
Now all my lies are proved untrue
And I must face the men I slew.
What tale shall serve me here among
Mine angry and defrauded young?

And it sems they know it
Liam Fox
“A lot of things were said in advance of this referendum that we might want to think about again,” said the Conservative former Defence Minister Liam Fox.
