    Still waiting for you to show a source stating the HQ in Ireland is closing and moving to UK. It isn't and you know it isn't

    The FB one is true but these are additional jobs, not a move from Ireland

    The only reason they were in Ireland was because of the tax dodge - The European Commission concluded in early August that Apple must pay the Irish government up to €13 billion (£11.1 billion; $14.5 billion) in back taxes. What do you think is going to happen? <laugh>

    No evidence of a single job moving as yet

    The Euro fine is a problem I agree but as of now - zilch

    Despite what you wrote earlier

    So you admit your dumb - thanks

    Why do you think Apple, Google, Amazon, Microsoft etc are in Ireland, and why do you think ALL of them are building massive offices in London?
    Deep breath and give us your answer ;)

    Now, on a separate point, when we become the new British Virgin Islands offshore money laundering centre, of course the US multinationals who prefer not to pay any tax will think about coming here

    It all depends if we win the race to the bottom on tax rates and turning blind eyes

    With the Torys we may well do so

    Not what you were saying though, was it? Nothing happened as yet, just people positioning themselves

    No - What I was saying was that Irelands economic growth only came about because of their Advanced Pricing Agreements with company's like Apple, Google and microsoft the European Commisiion has ruled that these Agreements undermine the single market therefore the lure of Ireland is no longer.
    As such, these big firms are now building big offices in London - we both know the reason ;)

    Eire didn't, but he does now <laugh>

    You are part of this tax avoiding scam system and therefore all your (ahem) facts should be viewed in that light.

    No - The embarrassing part is yourself and 20/20 can't name a valid reason for wanting to remain.
    Apart from 100 people in Wigan might lose their job.

    The present arangements are far better than anything that has so far been presented as part of the post brexit master plan.
    Whin i say plan. I am presuming there is a plan...
    There is a plan, isnt there?
    What is it?

    You must know cos you keep spouting how great its going to be!

    You tell me.
    Nothing as far as i can see, and thats pretty much the point.
    48% were broadly happy with the current arrangement. The 52% had any number of visions of what they wanted.
    Soft brexit, hard brexit, return to the stone age... You name it brexiteers were for it in various numbers.


    At the minute we are out with no plan and no vision. Aka up **** creek without a paddle. Hard brexit will mean the canoe also has a hole in it. As the picture clears this madcap idea will be unmasked as a right wing xenophobic right wing tory plot and be shelved. Thats why you wild eyed twats keep trying to shout down how ****ing mad brexit is.

    To clarify, you have not seen a plan therefore to claim that the present arrangements are better is ridiculous. The current arrangement is ****!!
    The free trade deal under the EU involves 55 countries with a combined GDP of £4.7 trillion - quite a figure eh?

    Until you look at countries trading outside of the EU remit

    By contrast, the total GDP of nations with which the mighty Chile has struck free trade agreements amounts to £40.9 trillion, with South Korea £28.6 trillion, with Switzerland £27.9 trillion and Singapore £27.2 trillion, including deals with some of the world’s biggest economies in each case.

    About 90% of the agreements of these four smaller countries include services, compared to 68% of those negotiated by the EU
    As the UK has a very strong service sector I think any deal will be much much better - so stop your fretting <ok>

    What you THINK is irrelevent.... The decision should have/ will be made on the reality......
    As there is no plan there is no basis to believe leaving is better.
    As I said 48% are happy as we are.
    48% wont be happy with either soft or hard brexit!
    Is it really so hard to understand. This is the argument in its simplest form... Even chesh should be able to grasp it if you explain it in words of three letters and less.
