Boris cancels vote on his deal. Refused to instigate delay, blatantly breaking the law. He never said that he won't send the letter. He simply said the Benn act does not "compel" him to "negotiate" a delay to Brexit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What about those who dutifully pay for their medical costs but who prove too expensive for their private insurers (who you dont want to pay tax)when they grow older? Don't you like the NHS?

So he will send the letter asking for delay, next he will not negotiate about the delay, which means that the EU will set the terms of the delay? That wil give parliament the time to force a new referendum. Am I missing something? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Manufacturing corporations will not manufacture in high wage countries any more. They will only move their head quarters to where taxes are low. That creates a very limited number of (higly paid) jobs. Surely you must have heard of "globalisation" - it is one of the things brexiteers want to stop?

What are you talking about ? A brexiteer said that lowering taxes will attract corporations. He did not name any. How can I possibly say exactly which ones will not be attracted? I can only say that MANUFACTURING corporations will NOT be attracted (because of high wages) and that only tax head quarters will be attracted. How much manufacturing goes on in Panama or Virgin Islands? Yes, at those places some rich people get even more rich, but JOBS??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
