Did you miss these that I posted earlier. I am hurt ? I posted them just for you and you appear to have missed them Quote Siemens to open train factory in east Yorkshire German engineering company to invest £200m and create thousands of jobs at new plant in Goole https://www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2018/mar/02/siemens-to-set-up-train-factory-in-east-yorkshire Quote Siemens is to invest £27m into a new 3D printing factory for Worcester based Materials Solutions, a move that will create 55 new jobs. https://www.theengineer.co.uk/siemens-3d-printing/ 7 minutes ago, tebee said: Be interesting too to see how many international companies start investor state disputes with the UK for changing the rules and causing them losses.

RuamRudy Posted June 22, 2018 Share Posted June 22, 2018 52 minutes ago, Eloquent pilgrim said: Well okay then, in that case, let's examine the stunningly informative tweet from the literary genius, James O’Brien, that you think puts it very succinctly He tweeted ***Yup. If you stop paying £20 for your pitch at the car boot sale where you make a profit of £200 every week, then you are obviously £20 a week better off *** So, to show how weak your position actually is, if you can't write something more edifying than this yourself, and have to resort to posting this drivel from somebody else, you really do have much more to worry about than Brexit You really are struggling here - my suggestion is that you accept that you have nothing constructive to add, and simply drop it. On the other hand, of course, feel free to continue to dig. Should you wish to do so, perhaps you can explain what is unedifying and uninformative about him making a pertinent, accessible analogy to demonstrate how ludicrous a position that Rees Mogg is taking? And drivel? Why do you consider it drivel? The definition of drivel is 'silly nonsense'. What aspect of his tweet is silly nonsense? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RuamRudy Posted June 22, 2018 Share Posted June 22, 2018 18 hours ago, Eloquent pilgrim said: I suggest you google ‘outrage’ because you don’t appear to understand the meaning of the word. I am not in the least bit outraged, you are the one displaying all the outrage. However, I agree that ‘faux’ is certainly the correct adjective to precede your outrage with. I can assure you that there is nothing faux about my outrage when it comes to racists, fascists and xenophobes. If you weren't outraged, you did wade in somewhat quickly to defend a clearly fascist politician and try to airbrush out his overtly racist proposals by trying to suggest he was persecuting only those who are in Italy illegally, rather than the truth of the matter, which is his stated intent to single out Roma in general.

We have already agreed to the severance payment and that NI will remain part of the CU and SM - we are still sorting out citizens rights though - the UK gov published a proposal today but it's still lacking in detail. There has been discussion on a trade deal - the EU has offered a offered a Canada or Ukraine type deal, with no ECJ strings attached - but this won't solve the problem for people like Airbus. The problem is the 2 year art 50 notice is nowhere near long enough to arrange a comprehensive a la carte trade deal, my moneys still on an art 50 extesion.

Well we certainly managed to lose much of our aerospace industry with little difficulty. Great result. Many Brexiters moaning about competition for jobs are really concerned about spud bashing jobs rather than engineering or technology jobs or those that require significant education. You are correct that we have insufficient people who are qualified for high tech jobs. No doubt you blame the EU for that rather than our burgeoning underclass of anti elitists.

All the British who used to go fruit picking, now claim welfare while Poles and Romanians do the work. There's probably more Brits suitable and available for 'spud bashing' than there are for 'aircraft manufacture' Most natives of any country seek menial low paid work. Once you take that away from them, their only choices are welfare, drugs and petty crime. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
