mogandave Posted November 8, 2018 Posted November 8, 2018 You have a very distorted view of essential. There are only 6 GPS systems worldwide, US,EU,China,Russia,Japan and India and you believe that it is essential that the UK creates a 7th, more important than peoples health and well being.While I generally agree, proponents argue national security. Does the state run the cell service? If not let the providers (i. e. users) pay for it .
kwilco Posted November 8, 2018 Posted November 8, 2018 There's been a lot of tosh posted about workers being exploited by the EU. The truth is after Brexit, workers rights, civil rights and consumer rights will be decimated It's like people voted deliberately to hand over power to the rich and powerful.here's a couple of daily examples... https://news.sky.com/video/two-legal-rights-that-will-disapear-after-brexit-11547482?fbclid=IwAR0ghcE_5GJaasVRCcNuIfd1bSfF6KKAJxsyOn_tkfehiy-cQTm8PD60Ebg 1 1

My father had the workmen move the Anderson shelter to the new house and it is still there to this day. There was also many of us in the same boat but there was unspoken segregation, not that anyone knew what the word meant in those days, the kids from 'snob hill' did not mix with the kids from the huts. As you know I also went in the RAF, my father effectively kicked me out when I left school as there were 3 of us in one bedroom. I did my interview at Cardington when I was 15 but they wouldn't let me join straight away and was deferred to Jan 64, I worked in the woods cutting firewood for the 6 months prior. Once in the service life became a whole lot better, but never financially, couple of messy divorces saw to that. Getting ripped off by a woman is not unique to Thailand, in fact probably better of now in general terms than I have ever been. Going back as a couple is not an option as my wife wouldn't want it, a couple of weeks is more than enough for her, so every chance I will end up scattered across the garden, probably just as well as the way things are going it is unlikely I could afford a funeral in the UK. Yes funeral about 3.5 k to 4 k for nothing fancy! Seems a lot for a couple of cars a chipboard box and a hot oven. But the UK is expensive! 1

I think it is fair to say that the majority of the electorate didn't vote to leave. 30% of the electorate didn't vote at all so we don't know how many would have opted to leave. Best to say the country was split and remains so today. The numbers are irrelevant now unless there was another referendum and that is highly unlikely. However with the current situation the peoples vote on the outcome of the negotiations is gaining a lot of ground. That appears to be with both sides warming to the idea. After all we are all being screwed here. 3

It's an interesting debate that gets to the heart of the 'peoples vote' (cringes) issue among others. I respect the intellect of both, but Hitchens has integrity and principles, something Lord Adonis quite clearly needs a lesson in. I know who I agree with too. Not sure I fully agree with PH about the Norway plan though. Thank you That was an excellent debate and addresses exactly the issues we should be discussing. These gents would be welcome in my carriage on the way to Brussels! Both would make excellent prime ministers! I urge all Brexiters here to listen to the discussion and think about it. 1
