  1. If your going to quote figures from the ONS what don't you provide a link from the ONS In the winter of 2020 to 2021, most excess winter deaths were in hospitals in England (36,500) and Wales (2,100), with 54.7% and 39.1% more deaths occurring in the winter than the non-winter months in England and Wales respectively (Figure 7). In England, the excess winter mortality index (EWMI) for hospitals was significantly higher than other places of death, whereas in Wales there was no significant difference between hospitals and care homes. https://www.ons.gov.uk/peoplepopulationandcommunity/birthsdeathsandmarriages/deaths/bulletins/excesswintermortalityinenglandandwales/2020to2021provisionaland2019to2020final#:~:text=An estimated 63%2C000 excess winter,(December to March)." No mention of heating in the ONS report
  2. It would appear Priti Patel's claims were correct . Article 27 of Directive 2004/38 entitled ‘General principles’ and which is found in Chapter VI – Restrictions on the right of entry and the right of residence on grounds of public policy, public security or public health, provides: ‘1. Subject to the provisions of this Chapter, Member States may restrict the freedom of movement and residence of Union citizens … on grounds of public policy, public security or public health. These grounds shall not be invoked to serve economic ends. 2. Measures taken on grounds of public policy or public security shall comply with the principle of proportionality and shall be based exclusively on the personal conduct of the individual concerned. Previous criminal convictions shall not in themselves constitute grounds for taking such measures. The personal conduct of the individual concerned must represent a genuine, present and sufficiently serious threat affecting one of the fundamental interests of society. Justifications that are isolated from the particulars of the case or that rely on considerations of general prevention shall not be accepted. …’ https://eur-lex.europa.eu/legal-content/EN/TXT/?uri=CELEX%3A62007CC0033
  3. Asylum claimants found to have destroyed their documents can be prosecuted under a 2004 law passed by the Tony Blair government. However, Ministry of Justice data shows a dramatic decline in the number of prosecutions of this offence since 2005. One dataset even indicated that there were only two prosecutions in 2019 for being unable to produce an immigration document at an asylum or leave interview (a year when 1,840 are known to have crossed the Channel in boats). https://www.migrationwatchuk.org/news/2022/02/24/98-of-channel-boat-migrants-have-no-passport
  4. Any EU national that was refused entry before Brexit would be seeking to have that decsion overturned and made null and void using directive 2004/38/ec via the EU courts Likewise any country that refused entry would need to refer to directive 2004/38/ec
  5. Can someone with a criminal record travel to Europe? In comparison, European countries and especially the Schengen Area countries have far more relaxed rules surrounding entry for travellers with a criminal record. In general, visitors to the Schengen Area will not receive a European criminal conviction check at border control. https://www.etias.info/travel-to-europe-with-a-criminal-record/ It does state Travellers who have served 3 years in prison or more, or who have been convicted of illegal smuggling or drug offences with a 2-year prison term or more, are likely to be refused visa entry. Once again this only applies to Non EU nationals
  6. Reality Check: How many EU nationals have been refused entry to the UK? April 2016 Reality Check verdict: The UK refuses a tiny fraction of EU nationals who want to come here. It has to have very good grounds to do so. In the case of criminality, for example, a conviction even for a serious crime in not good enough - the individual must pose a current risk. https://www.bbc.com/news/uk-politics-eu-referendum-36101449
  7. That rule apply only to Non EU citizens attempting to enter Schengen zone Article 27 of Directive 2004/38 Measures taken on grounds of public policy or public security shall comply with the principle of proportionality and shall be based exclusively on the personal conduct of the individual concerned. Previous criminal convictions shall not in themselves constitute grounds for taking such measures. https://eur-lex.europa.eu/legal-content/EN/TXT/?uri=CELEX%3A62007CC0033
  8. If it was London spring and summer and Sunderland autum winter it might as I can't see the hoards of London lobbyist's doing 6 months in Sunderland
  9. So I assume that's a NO then the EU will not be sending food aid packages to the 6 million EU nationals living in the UK
  10. When the EU going to start sending food aid packages to the 6 million EU nationals living in the UK
  11. Central Government spends approximately £1 per head on R&D in the North East, while it spends £78 per head in the South East and £62 per head in the South West. document published in 2003 https://www.ippr.org/files/images/media/files/publication/2011/05/A_new_regional_policy_for_the_UK_1292.pdf Noticed as a result of the EU enlargement will mean that after 2006 the poorer UK regions will cease to receive the same degree of EU Structural Funds on which they currently rely so heavily;
  12. The article I quoted from stated the rot started since the 1980's Huge swathes of England outside of London voted to Leave the European Union, because of a feeling of exclusion that has been growing since Thatcher’s 1980s. Your link mentions the coalition (Conservative–Liberal Democrat coalition 2010-2015) Can only assume that Labour did nothing to reduce the North-South divide It would be interesting if the UK had a rotational parliament maybe London and Sunderland similar to the EU with Strasbourg and Brussels
  13. And the majority of people that voted remain still don't understand that they are the root cause of the Brexit vote The majority of funding went to London and area's where lobbyist's hadtheir pet projects the rest of the country received token crumb's from London's elite Britain’s EU Problem is a London Problem Huge swathes of England outside of London voted to Leave the European Union, because of a feeling of exclusion that has been growing since Thatcher’s 1980s. https://www.dissentmagazine.org/blog/britains-eu-problem-london-problem
  14. There was never a vote to join the EU as in 1975 the vote was do you want to stay Do you think that the United Kingdom should stay in the European Community (the Common Market)? and it was a yes/no choice As for leaving the single market and Customs Union Cameron, Osbourne and many others informed everyone that a leave vote would mean leaving the single market and custom union so everyone did know what a leave vote meant
  15. Don't you remember the voting slip where everyone voted to Join the single market and the Customs Union
  16. A poll conducted by Lord Ashcroft immediately after the referendum showed that EU membership was an important issue only for 12% of the Yes voters and 15% of the No voters https://www.theguardian.com/politics/2014/sep/20/scottish-independence-lord-ashcroft-poll If the results of this poll are correct EU membership was low down on the list for both Yes and No voters
  17. There was a paper Published by the Scottish Government, November 2013 Scotland in the European Union Which contains many reference to a referendum on the UK‟s membership of the EU including a clear reference on Page 27 section 7.4 7.4. As we head towards a referendum on the UK‟s membership of the EU there is a growing sense, both here and on mainland Europe, the UK‟s relationship with the EU is set to change fundamentally. Indeed it is far from inconceivable the UK will leave the EU before the end of this decade https://www.coleurope.eu/sites/default/files/uploads/event/scotland_in_the_eu_-_report.pdf
  18. 14th May 2013 David Cameron: EU referendum bill shows only Tories listen David Cameron has said only his party is offering a "clear choice" about the UK's future in Europe after the Tories published a draft bill outlining plans for a referendum by the end of 2017. https://www.bbc.com/news/uk-politics-22530655 Not much of a secret if the BBC published in 2013 before the 2014 referendum
  19. The Uk will have to go a long way to match the EU with 6.9 million unemployed and a whopping 108.5 million people economically inactive https://ec.europa.eu/eurostat/statistics-explained/index.php?title=Labour_market_flow_statistics_in_the_EU

  22. There are people that have sucessfully import household belongings here the problem you will find is timeline Most imported 10-15 years ago and the rules have changed since then if you ask the question has anyone imported household belongings recently you will find the answer is zero unless they were married to a Thai that had lived overseas and now returning back to Thailand or they had a work permit
  23. I think you will find EV cost will increase next year due to increased costs in material cost and in China the subsidy on EV ends in 2023 https://seekingalpha.com/news/3910805-chinese-ev-maker-byd-to-raise-prices-from-jan-1-on-higher-raw-material-cost-subsidy-end Will the EV prices remain at current pricing no one knows What we see at the moment is brands taking reservations for a limited number of vehicles then closing their reservations what we don't know will the current pricing remain the same or will there be a price increase when they re-open their reservations systems for the next batch of orders
