nauseus Posted May 30, 2019 Share Posted May 30, 2019 8 hours ago, Nigel Garvie said: Wow 100 M a week is not a big deal, how many hospitals and schools does that add up to a year. Anyway this talk about 250 M is way off the mark, as we get a large amount back in direct subsidies. Also the trade benefit of having tariff free access to the largest market in the world is vast compared with what we pay in. Why do you think Germany, France etc etc were keen to expand the EU, it meant a bigger market for everyone's goods. Trade is the greatest contributor to world prosperity - and if I might quote Molesworth "As evry ful kno". No we don't. We get about 4B rebate and 4B subsidies, with much of the latter going to rich landowners or allocated for mainly useless cash boosts to credit the EU. The bizarre thing is that these grants are also from our own money anyway! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A suggestion more than a promise. Leavers can filter this stuff out as they are aware that promises like this are only able to be fulfilled by people in power, as Boris was not at the time of the referendum campaign. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If politicians could seriously be jailed for lying then Farage would be on a life sentence by now. As for Trump... well the key would have been thrown away years ago! But politicians and lying go hand in hand. In the past if a politician was found to be lying he would have fallen on his/her sword and resigned. If that happened these days the Houses of Parliament would be empty. And it all get's absorbed into a continual cycle of spin. As Penny Mordaunt said today, "Policy has given way to presentation". Watch out for Ms Mordaunt, she may just be biding her time before throwing her hat in the ring and if she does then she could stir things up a bit. What lies has Farage told? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn't mind betting that there is some very strong lobbying (on both sides) to make sure that this case appears before the "right-minded" judge. Personally, I think it is a very dangerous precedent for the courts to get involved in rulings on political campaigning, particularly in cases launched by crowdfunded private prosecutions, when the Police and CPS have decided that it does not merit prosecution. I hope (and rather expect) that the higher courts will take the same view. Edited May 31, 2019 by JAG 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
