All i can say is that wellmpaid jobs were much thicker on the ground 15-20 years ago.
In order to compare apples with apples: was that for jobs that could be performed (maybe even better) by a local? Or was that for jobs requiring specific expertise or experience that’s scarce locally? You can still get well paid jobs here if you’re in demand.

No, he didn’t. Do people actually read an article before they reply? Someone else said to him that it’s almost as though nature is rebuking.

All you had to say was "No more extensions" and we would have left a lot sooner
But you didn’t want to leave. Otherwise you hadn’t asked for extension after extension.

I can imagine the scams/scares that could be created with this system. Give a false address and and an innocent person gets a positive HIV report!!
If anything, that person would get a test kit that he doesn’t want/need, so it would be just a waste of money.

How? I could as well go to the Thai Red Cross Anonymous Clinic and fill-in someone else’s name there. How is this service less secure than any clinic or Organisation that’s using IT systems?

Expect in two days an article reading “UK and EU keen to get a deal, but time is running out”
Then two days later “We want a deal, say EU and UK, but not at any price”
This starts to feel like that Bill Murray movie. And it will probably go on like this for a while, even after 1 Jan 21.

we do know the Scots wish because they told us.
Wrong. You know what was the wish of the Scots in 2014. The electorate today is not the one of 2014, and their wish may have changed. So you don’t what their wish is. You’re living in the past.
QuoteThe UK has not blocked any referendum, they were granted one in 2014.
Again, you’re living in the past. According to your own PM, it is or would be blocking one. Good if not. Let’s see.
QuoteWhy would the Brexiteers throw any abusive language
Because they knew their only realistic chance to win the referendum was by doing it the Trump way, lies, disinformation, verbal abuse. Had Brexiteers been decent democratic people, no one would feel Schadenfreude; people would probably have wished you well (including me). But had Brexiteers been decent democratic people, they wouldn’t have won the referendum in the first place.

Why are you so supportive of Scottish independence ?
I’m not. It’s up to them. As I wrote before.
1 hour ago, CorpusChristie said:Do you see it as some king of revenge on England/UK , because we decided to leave you ?
I don’t have an issue with England/UK. I also don’t mind if those who insult and lie reap what they sowed.
1 hour ago, CorpusChristie said:We left you , you try to break us up .
Who do you mean when you say “you”? You neither left me nor do I have any leverage to break you up. If you mean the EU, the same applies.

Like , have a Scottish referendum asking the Scottish people whether they should have a referendum or not ?
If you want to overly complicate it. Though I think the Scottish people have elected a government and parliament to handle such matters for them.

So basically you are saying the only facts we have is that the Scots wish to remain in the UK.
Nope, the facts you have is that the Scots voted (past tense) to remain in the UK, and that they may (vote to) leave the UK. You don’t know what “the Scots wish”, and you won’t know if you (UK) keep blocking a referendum.
37 minutes ago, vogie said:You are not going to believe this but there are many on here Euros as well as homegrown Brits who because they lost in the EU referendum, they would like to see the UK split up just out of spite, now I'm sure if you knew somebody like that, it is hoped that you would severely rebuke them.
You are not going to believe this but I’m not one of those. I wouldn’t mind to see the UK split up because I think those who throw abusive language and lies (Brexiteers) deserve it.

Nope, you voted to remain. You kept moaning about it. You got a second vote. That turned out to be leave.
35 minutes ago, JonnyF said:For Indyref, the majority who voted wanted to Remain. You remained. No second vote. That's Democracy in action.
Up to the Scottish to decide whether to have another vote or not. Their fate ain’t your business. That’s democracy.

37 minutes ago, vogie said:Somebody needs to tell them what to do, have you seen the decline of Scotland since the SNP have taken over. But the main point here without you twisting everything that anyone says is that the Scots have chosen to remain within our union, yes or no?
You’re living in the past. The world has moved on. You gotta catch up with what’s happening now rather than clinging to what was. The Scots had chosen to remain in the UK. They might now decide to leave. We will see.

32 minutes ago, CorpusChristie said:Scotland is part of Westminster (Parliament)
Among three other countries that get a say in this. Imagine it had been up to the EU parliament (of which the UK was a part of) to give permission to hold a referendum and/or to leave the EU. The same people who now insist that England should have a say in Scottish matters would have cried big foul.

Didn’t they need permission to hold a referendum from the UK? Isn’t that what this article here is all about?
1 minute ago, vogie said:the Scots themselves have chosen to stay within the UK, those are the facts
And it seems they could now decide to leave the UK.
1 minute ago, vogie said:I'm sorry if it hurts you so much to face them.
Quite contrary, it’s highly entertaining to see irony of Brexit unfolding.

7 minutes ago, Laughing Gravy said:No your understanding is wrong again. They had once in a generation referendum that voted to stay part of the UK in 2014. it is only foreigners and the Scottish nationalist on here that keep bleating the same nonsense ,in the belief people may believe them..
I remember the UK had a once in a lifetime referendum in 1975 that voted to stay part of the EU. Still English nationalists kept bleating.
In the end, you’ll have to accept that the Scottish will do what they want to do. Democracy isn’t some Englishmen telling another country whether and when and how often it may vote on whatever they want to vote. ????

33 minutes ago, Baerboxer said:Do you understand the difference between what the EU actually is? And what its member states actually are?
I understand that the Scotland is member of union that it doesn’t want to be a member of anymore, same as was the case with the UK in the EU. I understand whereas the EU let’s it’s member states free decide whether and when to leave, the UK doesn’t. So, the difference is that EU member states are sovereign, whereas U.K. member states are not. Was that your point?
33 minutes ago, Baerboxer said:Just like a few Catalonian politicians can't unilaterally decide to leave Spain; or Corsica France; or Wallonia Belgium; Sturgeon can't decide to leave the UK.
Just like Boris can break laws and agreements, so could Scotland. And I’m sure they could also come up with some bloomy sovereignty romantic about how it’s up to their parliament to decide domestic issues. Of course, they won’t do that; not everyone is like your Boris.

They could just hold a referendum and leave without asking the UK for permission. Same as the UK did with the EU. And since Boris established the precedent that he is fine with breaking international law and agreements, I’m sure he would be fine with it here as well.

That's not the case the EU didn't want UK to leave in the first place.
Even if that was true, it is up to each member state itself to leave or not.
24 minutes ago, Kwasaki said:Four years on and still not free of EU doesn't that say at lest something to you to be fair.
You are not an EU member anymore. You could have had it earlier. You could even have had it without the transition period. If anything, it says something about the UK. But certainly not that you’re “still not free”.

So again the EU do hold the power on referendums.
Would you mind showing me the specific law according to which a member state cannot hold a referendum without EU approval? Truth is, member states don’t even need a referendum for it. They can just trigger article 50 without one. It’s totally up to them as sovereign states: Any Member State may decide to withdraw from the Union in accordance with its own constitutional requirements.
You obviously didn’t do your homework, as so often is the case with brexiteers.
QuoteGo and ask the likes of Gina Mller.
Gina Miller isn’t the EU. In fact, she’s one of yours.

That’s what I was thinking. Supply and demand change. As the country got more developed (and its people more educated), of course the (high paying) jobs for foreigners became less.
