Very interesting discussion on Newnight now about UKIP. Which way will they go? (1) The Ex Tory route of lower taxes, smaller government ? (2) The working class route of grabbing ex labour voters, holding corporations to account for tax, keeping the NHS controlled by the state with plenty of public...

There needs to be an anyone but Leadsom campaign. I imagine this means splitting May's MPs with Crabb. None of them have any credentials to lead the Country it would be a disaster tbh, they should stand down if they care at all for the UK. They are deluded if they think the country voted for them a...

try Ireland has been down the whole Sinn Féin economic policy for the 30 odd years between 1930, and 1960, and it doesn't work. It leads to economic and cultural stagnation, and politically to the meanest type of petty nationalism there is. Cammy, protesting against nationalism... :lol: Bimbo in on...

Some kiwi who was in Britain for all of 2 minutes had a right to vote... leave. On such an important vote for the future of the country, I don't know why visitor permit carrying kiwis were allowed to have a vote. http://www.nzherald.co.nz/opinion/news/article.cfm?c_id=466&objectid=11668044#comment-...

That's the thing. As a contractor I get to leave at COB or near abouts. It's brilliant. What field of work? Finance Banking and Tax legal. Ah, yeah, you should be laughing then. Am hoping there will need to be a lot of tech work to go with it. I believe that world is going to be very rewarding.

From a professional perspective I am struggling to match up the reality of what is legally available in terms of passporting (if we don't accept freedom of movement etc) with what Leavers seem to think is achievable through negotiation. I hope that they are right and we get some sort of special dea...

No overtaking of team mates in the last 4-5 laps, (excluding mechanical Issues)

That'd make tyre strategy interesting ;

I think that, whilst it is not in the EU's interest either to lose the UK, or to see it fail, if, as seems more than likely, the former ship has sailed, then it will act for its own benefit above all. As noted, that doesn't necessarily mean that they will ensure the UK fails, but I can't see the re...

The whole publish your tax affairs thing could be about to trip Leadsom up. very strong rumours that she is directly involved in various offshore funds and derives a whole bunch of income from them Her issues with tax have long been in the media tbh. At least 24 hours. If you try and be clever and ...

I actually believe that the how much free movement vs trade equation. Should be put back to the country, many brexiters have told me immigration has nothing to do with their position is that more or less than 2%.

I am not familiar with how Switzerland finance operates with the EU, but I assume they have a financial 'passport' or some other advantages that have been negotiated for cash input to the EU. Britain might be well served to pay into the pot to retain some degrees of freedom, but sustain the value y...

Chuckles , the issue of mandate was the chubsters, I was replying to that. As for the rest, I'd easily argue that brexit were 13% short of a majority, stop being so silly.

So basically there's an even bigger shitfight around the corner as the question of which we prioritise, controlling immigration or access to the single market, takes centre stage.

I dont think Labour can function, its leader and MPs are a complete mismatch. The disparity between what Labour voters want and what their MPs want is massive.

According to Nico, he had the racing line (sort of true), was on the inside (true), and therefore was allowed to "dictate the corner" (not true).

Nico gets a 10 second penalty; doesn't impact the result, so he keeps 4th place. He also gets 2 penalty points on his super license Is he still going to claim its Hamiltons fault and the stewards were wrong. Mercedes need to talk to him and him alone. It looks like they sacrificed Hamilton today th...

Is the EU more like the Soviet Union or the USA? Really? Not in the slightest like either. Given the US is the more decentralised of the two it's more like this.
