  1. Exactly, so how can you predict disaster if we leave? Don't forget, all the experts predicted doom and gloom from the moment the leave vote was to come in. Yes it's almost certain our economy would be worse off had we adopted the Euro as our currency. Here's a link giving a general outline on how negative joing the single currency would have been for us and also the other EU members. https://www.economicshelp.org/blog/6182/economics/if-the-uk-had-been-in-the-euro/
  2. It's just more of the same, project fear from the remainiacs.
  3. Are these the same world class economists who predicted the end of the world of brexit was voted for, or the same ones who said we'd be in trouble if we didn't adopt the Euro, or the same one who failed to see the financial crash of 2007?
  4. Simple, I want the one who is going to deliver brexit as voted for.
  5. I'd take a donkey right now if they'll deliver brexit in the spirit it was voted for, anyone would be better than a dictatorship that will not listen to the people.
  6. I think as a staunch remainer, she and her supporters never intended to deliver brexit, just look at the back stabbing that went on after Cameron left, the party insured they could insert someone who would do their bidding and therefore continue the status quo, I also believe May is in cohorts with the EU and the cheques "deal" was a stitch up between her and the EU, it was then rolled out and the plan was to make it look like she had to fight to get the EU to accept it so the UK would think she'd negotiated a tough deal, when in reality it would have been the EUs plan all along, luckily anyone who isn't a remainiac hasn't fallen for it, with even people who voted remain unhappy with the "deal" and yet she's still trying to push it through.
  7. Yes, Jacob Rees Mogg would be ideal in my opinion.
  8. That's what your up against I'm afraid.
  9. This is spot on, it's part of the reason I packed it in (the other being I wanted my life back). The other problem I think is that so many people simply look at price as their deciding factor, you can't compete with mass produced joinery and alot of people aren't bothered the quality isn't there.
  10. To my knowledge in some areas traps have proven more effective than shooting and most areas had failed to meet their targets for their cull zone so I suspect people are doing both in many areas.
  11. 1,2,3 & 4 are totally credible, if you don't believe that then you'll need to do your own internet searches in your own good time (with an open mind), zero point in me coming up with short snippets so you and a few others can have fun having a pop at. If you're interested the information is out there, it just needs COURAGE instead of smirk to look it up.
  12. 😂Give them a chance, it's only just happened.
  13. Agreed, but unlike our armed forces who also imo deserve the country's upmost respect, our often brave police officers seem to pick up alot of undeserved criticism for things they have no control over, I am of course generalising as there will always be rotten apples and when they are found they deserve every bit of criticism going.
  14. True policing is going to be a far safer job than say offshore fishing, or mining ever was on average, but I should imagine if your called to storm a building full of armed terrorists as they did in Paris a couple of years ago, the risk of that is up there with any other job in the world, anyone prepared to do that has my respect and it goes for unarmed bobbies on the beat to, look at some of the injurys sustained by that BTP cop who single handily tackled a load of knife weilding terrorists with his baton in London not so long back, nearly loosing his life in the process, if that's not bravery I don't know what is.
  15. I know the police many years ago were very corrupt and of course you'll always find a couple of rotten apples in any job, but I believe the average PC is doing their best to do a tough job without the resources. Of course your experience will taint your view of them and understandably so. That's the problem though, alot of issues these days, the police's hands are tied, I'm sure they'd love to sort the local criminals out, but without the resources or laws to allow them to they simply can't.
  16. Agreed, but that's why people should support them rather than knock them for issues outside of their control all the time, they get alot of negative comments towards them that they really don't deserve, just look at any thread on here. And just like you, the police must stay on the right side of the law, so when people slate them for criminals not respecting them anymore, or not coming to a crime because they're understaffed and are dealing with a higher priority incident,rather than slating the organisation, or worse, the individual officers, we should be slating the legislators who have caused the situations in the first place. I don't think alot of people realise just how limited the police are in the powers they have available to them at times.
  17. That's where I don't really understand your point, anybody who is doing their best to do a good and important job in the face of adversity should be respected if not supported. I'm sure you'd call them if you needed them.
  18. They are constantly blamed for not taking action, being soft on crime, not turning up when needed ect, those issues are almost always to do with government funding and policies, the police are that tied up in red tape these days it's a wonder they can move. I put myself in their shoes, they probably dislike criminals more than we do and would love to have them all locked up, but they have to operate within the law and if the politicians and public don't support them morally or with the funding and tools they need how are they supposed to win, it's no wonder criminals don't fear the long arm of the law any more and are going around acting with impunity. That's why I feel sorry for officers doing their best to do their job. I think your spot on, again though the blame for all that lies with the politicians who make the law and to an extent the ACPO ranks but they are tied by the stats and hoops they must jump through, the average PC is probably more cheesed off with the mess law and order in this country is in than we are.
  19. It's not my maths that's out though, have you ever made a typo? Particularly when your typing on a smart phone. My point stands, the trade market is far bigger outside of the EU.
  20. Spot on, it's just more remainiac hysteria.
  21. To put it into purspective, approximately 35% of the world's trade is done in the EU, which means 75% is done outside of it, you don't need to be a mathematition to realise that trading with the EU is not the be all and end all, which is why I laugh when the remainiacs accuse the leavers of having a little island mentality or similar, it is making the mistake of believing we must cling to the EUs apron strings for fear of being shut out of trade, the moment we leave the EU as a free sovereign nation, we gain the rest of the world to potentially trade with.
