Popular Post malagateddy Posted March 30, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted March 30, 2019 C/h..I have had no time for the inglorious eu for over 20 years.I voted LEAVE as I saw my former home city going downhill..the influx of non legally working people from certain eu countries coupled with non legally working asians...the horrible organised crime networks set up by the aforementioned groups of people.Namely..massive increase of hard drugs..child prostitution..forced marriages..people trafficking etc etc.Call me what you like but I want people who immigrate to the UK to be a credit and an asset to the UK.My best mate in Glasgow's son who's 32 years old is an excellent example.He's a 1st class tele-communications engineer...working in Melbourne Australia on the massive tram upgrade.The young man is a credit to himself..his parents and to Australia.That's the calibre of immigrant that the UK should be getting..not the " trash " I have mentioned. The Brexit Leave campaign was funded by tax shy Billionaires, Multimillionaires and hedge fund managers (plus a large amount of unexplained foreign sourced money). Amongst Brexit backers the likes of Dyson with his ‘global’ manufacturing and ‘global’ tax evasion. Only last week the EU fined Google over a €Billion for breaching EU anti trust laws (laws that protect customers against abusive market rigging by big ‘global’ businesses). But please do trot out your canned ‘globalism/ist’ You are being played by a handful of the hyper wealthy, you may be happy to go along with their con, but please don’t expect the rest of us to be so easily taken in by conmen spouting populist promises they have no intention, or indeed means, to ever keep.Sent from my SM-G7102 using Thailand Forum - Thaivisa mobile app 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What an earth has this guy got to do with the Brexit march. Nothing. So Reuters continue to try and link far right people with brexiteers and show just how biased they are as a news organisation when it comes to the EU and referendum. They are as bad as the independent and guardian newspapers. Please get your facts right. Tommy Robinson is nothing to do with the far right. He left the EDL because of the infiltration of far right supporters. You slag off the media for fake news and twisting the facts and then believe them when it comes to Tommy. Also he has just as much to do with the march as everyone else there. He also wants to see justice for the people. Do some research on Tommy please.

Sent from my SM-G7102 using Thailand Forum - Thaivisa mobile app The tragedy in your argument is that you’ve made the correct observation wrt the growth in inequality ( the rich getting richer at the cost of everyone else). But you then attribute this to the wrong causes. By example, the EU is enacting the CCCTB a direct challenge to the globalist tax evasion that robs nations of taxes while enriching the hyper wealthy. And again I refer you to the many examples of the EU acting in favor of consumers/individuals to protect them from market rigging by big business. That’s without gettung into the EU’s support for worker rights and individual rights. Meanwhile Brexit promises - deregulation. You might wish to believe that is in the favor of ordinary working people, not all of us are so gullible.

His "mortgage fraud " conviction was the result of him introducing some potential house buyers to a mortgage broker who supplied fake payslips for them to obtain a mortgage to buy a house , (he also loaned thee people 40 000 GBP as a deposit) and onve ce the people had gotton the loan from the bank , they would have paid the money back to the bank . Although this is illegal (to supply false payslips) , it is generally overlooked or the mortgage is refused . Its very rare for people to get prosecuted for this and TR must be unique in being the only person ever to be prosecuted , simply for introducing a mortgage lender to a mortgage broker (who broke some rules) .

An uncle of mine to was evacuated at Dunkirk but luckily survived unlike his Brother who died on the beach and went on to serve the rest of the war in the ASR. My Father in the RN became totally deaf as a result of being underneath the allied bombardment on the 6th June 1944 at Juno Beach and I lost 2 Uncles as a result of Japanese atrocities. One could say that members of my own family to may well have had a need to permanently hold a grudge. But they never did and whilst proud to have served their country my comments are based on their and my own subsequent experiences and understanding that partisan and extremist views feed the dogs of war and the best learning experience possible is to learn from past mistakes.

The EU and remainers would be bricking it, at that thought.???? I think that JRM and the rest of the ERG are devious enough to say anything to get their way but to openly go back on their word and say they would be voting for May's deal just makes them look pathetic. But on Monday there will be more votes on possible outcomes. If only they had had those votes two years ago all this could have been avoided. Instead May ignored the concerns of the MP's and tried to blunder her way through with a doomed so called "deal". But worry not! Nigel believes if there is a second referendum then the leavers would win with a larger majority. Shall we test that theory then Nigel ????. I don't think another referendum is the answer. A softer Brexit wouldn't solve it but it would mean that the leavers got something. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
