    Im confused? We were told by our resident experts on here that all the companies/banking would leave the UK and set up in Frankfurt <laugh> and the EU, remember? When I look at todays EU news it is full of gloom regarding it's not so bright future and decline. Remember the guy from Ryan air saying he would be off?
    What's happened resident experts?

    So the 2 establishments that went against the Tories (BBC and The Lords) are now being discussed as by the Tories as 2 things that need reforming. :emoticon-0100-smile I said payback would come.

    What do you need to fear? Unemployment is down again. The pound has moved up against the Euro and will continue too after we are free from 'The club'. The country is getting in record investment... especially in the city and the economy will get stronger.
    There has been no catastrophe that was predicted and life will go on.

    The House of Lords in an unelected bunch of old men (mostly) who bend rules and regulations to suit their political views... The Benn bill is the perfect example. It's is time that it was reformed.
    The BBC has been abusing taxpayers money for too long and needs to sort itself out. The biased stance on Brexit was not right. They were not impartial with news and debate and like the Lords abused this for political reasons.
    And whats worse is that the BBC is cancelling Ceefax (Teletext) at the end of the month! <yikes> (my personal gripe).

    Both establishments need to be looked at. This goes beyond Brexit

    So Jess <wah><wah><wah>Phillips<wah><wah><wah><wah> has pulled out? She would have got hasted at PMQ's anyway.
    Labour are so lost and out of touch with people... even today they had this TUC thing in London and the main fellow was some old northerner that sounded as if he was back in the 70's miner's strikes. I seriously cant believe how people vote for that lot... well obviously at the election they didn't.

    In other news that seemed to go under the radar (pun intended) for some unknown reason :emoticon-0127-lipss

    Airbus Pledges Expansion in the U.K. After Brexit
    Airbus SE signaled that it’s ready to move beyond a previously uneasy relationship with the U.K. over Brexit, saying the future of its British wing plants is secure and pledging to work with the government to expand a business that goes from helicopter maintenance to planetary rovers.

    Sir Keir is working class. There’s no candidate who isn’t going to be mocked a bit by our masses of ****ing moronic middle-aged Tory voters anyway.

    No. It’s the sort of stupid ****s who treat politics like football. Yes they’re ****ed- that’s the reason they’re having a leadership election? To find someone vaguely palatable to the sort of people who clap like seals when Boris Johnson says something inaccurate in Ancient Greek and blame Labour for their kid’s school being closed on a Friday. Even white van drivers named Terry have a strong opposition in their best interests.

    He's a grammar school boy. The sort of school he wants to abolish. No doubt the squealing wokies will reinvent him as an ex-factory worker

    Working class people can go to grammar schools. His parents did very normal jobs. How dare he pass some exams and better himself.
