"untold billions", obviously there are those that can make it up.

Contribution to the EU budge is 0.72% of income tax, compared to the 6% that as to be paid just for the interest on the National Debt.

The EU contribution may go south but the interest is going to head a lot further north.

You will be relieved that after we Brexited (as per the democratic referenda result) we can stimulate our economy like never before. New policies like lowering corporation taxes to zero to lure as many foreign businesses and investors as we want. We could get our economy roaring like the innards of a nuclear power reactor. All at the expense of the EU. They will be spitting feathers in Brussels, what a shame!

I suppose you need to cling on to something as austerity phase 2 kicks in, reality is the pot of gold is always just out of reach.

will lawmakers be happy spoiling the weekend?

 

what do they bookies say?

UK in EU or not on 1st Nov?

 

 

just a quick look 2/3... the bookies may be right but certainly not a certainty.

 

But more interestingly:

"Boris Johnson to lead the Conservatives at next General election" 1/14

"Boris Johnson to be the shortest serving PM ever (under 119 days)" 5/6

He wouldn't, but you should declare the credentials of people you quote. Against forum rules to post the extreme right wing racist nonsense that you continually post without declaring the true scource.

I would be mightily relieved if it were in any way true. Unfortunately, pure fiction. Even your analogy is fiction. The innards of a nuclear power reactor don't roar, completely silent actually.

The treaty is terrible. It’s 95% the same as May’s treaty which was a record defeat.

 

I am surprised people predict it will pass the House of Commons. It pleases nobody except the EU.

 

I am equally disappointed that the likes of Mogg are supporting and promoting it. Hopefully the majority of the ERG and the DUP will reject it out of sight.

 

It seems people are getting worn down and will accept any old <deleted> now. That’s weak. Personally I would accept at least 5 more years of this <deleted>sh0w to get a clean break. Long term it will be worth it and I hope others will not just get beat down by the Machiavellian Parliamentary BS and give up. 
 

It should be an interesting couple of weeks.????????

 

 

Maybe JRM and the smarter ERG membership have sussed out that after May got her ass serially handed back with her deals, this 'worse' deal that Bojo has pushed through indicates that there's not a snowball's chance in hell of getting anything remotely 'better' from the EU.

 

The DUP have been summarily dismissed and marginalized at last and Bojo has finally got rid of that albatross he inherited through May's fustercluck of a snap election.

Big companies have many staff and workers. They will still pay personal income tax. But mainly for eg. Unilever has approx 150,000 staff. Each will consume fresh produce, each will pay indirect taxes for example alcohol duties etc etc. Each will need somewhere to live. So even if the company tax on Unilever was 0% the benefit to the UK would be immense if companies of this scale moved en masse to our fair shores.

 If you want to see the benefit of such policies just look at the likes of Jersey and Guernsey. The chief industry of potato farming went downhill since the 70s so they tempted the titans of industry to move there by negligible taxes which is why the islands are so rich, and all islanders benefit from this. The opposite of your tax them to the pips socialism.

An absolutely horrible specimen of humanity typically found on the sole of one's shoe in the environs of Battersea.

 

This is much, much better and she probably has (irrelevant, fat, white, English, daddy) dragons for breakfast.

That is not how it works.

 

Big corporations will move their "tax seats" to the UK, and will produce in poor countries, with very few employees in the UK.

Furthermore, do you expect the EU to just let this happen without reprisals?

And since you're at it, why not furter diminish workers' rights and privatise the NHS?

Win win no? Huge tax windfalls to fund the lifestyles of the newly rich and famous indolent wannabe's AND fund welfare for those that missed the bus. Nothing at all wrong with cheap, foreign labour... as long as they stay cheap and foreign.

They'll be far, far too busy pumping superglue into the Iberian 'Catalan crack' and keeping Italy and Greece from slipping off under the Med. That and pushing for full Moldovan membership of the EU. You know, the really important stuff.

That might not be such a bad idea after all. Maybe the NHS workers will happier working for a real boss instead of seeing their funding being squandered by ineffective, faceless management boards and trusts.
