It’s Ireland based on the data I’m looking at on the train now from the World Bank but that’s based on 2018. 8.2%.

Poland 5.1%, Malta 6.8%. The UK a dizzy 1.4 and these are all absolute rather than real figures.

Good news is Eritrea are number one in the world and a trade deal is moments away.

fair enough, at least you have the information rather than just making a totally bigoted comment

Rumania had a growth rate which was, on average, 3% for the years between 2010 and 2018. This is one of the most consistent averages in the EU. Ok. the starting base was a bit low - maybe like promotion from the Southern League to the Nationwide, but up is up, and this was only made possible by EU membership.

I’m actually going to Bucharest in a couple of weeks if anyone has any recommendations.

I think that judging a whole country based on a few pickpockets is like judging the whole of the UK based on the activities of some of their football fans Turkish. You will find that all that has happened is that a check list of 35 points has been agreed which makes the entry into the EU a more transparent and predictable process - it does not guarantee them entry. Actually if you live in a greenhouse you shouldn't throw stones, because these 35 criteria would probably bar the UK from re entry. Living in a country where you have just given a majority to a government which a) tried to close parliament illegally b) tried to bribe Brexit party candidates to stop them standing for office c) Brought the impartiality of the judiciary into question d) suppressed Russian reports until after the election (have they been published yet ?) and where e) press freedom has been restricted and where f) fake news is the norm, you are hardly in a position of being able to throw mud at other countries.

zzzzzz

The thing is the whole country was only worth 30p before.

The Rumanians are some of the most hospitable people on this planet Windsor. the only problem is that the older ones speak only Rumanian ! The fact that you do not understand will not hinder them from continuing to chatter to you ! The biggest problem in Rumania is that of stray dogs - there are an estimated 2 million of them in the country and Bucharest is the stray dog capital of Europe - a small minority of that number have gone fully feral and roam the countryside in packs. So relaxing strolls in the countrside can be full of adventure (always go armed with a bag of stones and a stick if you do this ).

Oh dear you still harping on about losing the referendum, losing the election and clutching at straws,
Well here’s a fact google it if you want a statistic released under the freedom of information act by the met police states the Romanian gangs are now responsible for over 90% of credit card related fraud in London's metropolitan area.
P.S. who’s bothered about the 35 point criteria for re-entry into you’re rotten corrupt 4th Reich, because unless you’ve noticed we’re leaving it and have no intention of rejoining it and if you like Fish you better ring reichsfuhrer Merkel and tell her to be nice or no pickled herrings for breakfast !!

The French fishermen have said if they don't get access to our waters, they will sink our fleet!
oh dear
Although on a serious note, Boris needs to be strong and protect the fishermen as they have supported him now it's his turn.

After looking that up I'm calling bullshit on it, the only articles that relate to this are from the Express in 2013 and 'fullfact.org'. Both articles were extremely vague and not using direct quotations from any reliable source. If there is detailed research out there from a reputable source, I'll look at it, but the express is for people that stand on the streets and shout at cars with foreign number plates.

Alex Salmond will be relieved - it takes some of the focus off the sex charges against him. What a rabble

Yay!!!!!

That'd be a one off would it? Bearing in mind we will no longer be bearing the net £8 or £9 billion we've been paying into the EU per annum

Do some more research, it’s easy don’t you know,
Detective Chief inspector Paul Barnard of the DCPCU ( Dedicated cheque and plastic Crime Unit ) told ITV 1’s fraud squad programme as far back as 2012 that
“The fact is 92% of all ATM fraud is committed by Romanian Nationals”
Look it up old chap.

I noticed Boris used one of my quotes to Ian Blackford yesterday... SNationalistP. They should play on that more. Crap party that always come unstuck when questioned. Rabble...I think they are rotten.

Not to mention in Slough they had problems with sex trafficking of young girls with as many as 20 living in a 4 bedroom house... which by they way wasn't theirs, they were squatters... had no toilets due to water being cut off so chucked all their s22t in the street which the council had to clear up. and for local residents to be threatened.
Let the EU have them and we need to get rid off the crap and bring in professionals.

Have looked it up old chap, found nothing to support your assertations.

No it won't, obviously figures will alter but the cost of leaving the EU will be felt for a long time. Have you seen the figure of how much this debacle has cost so far?

Oh dear it keeps getting better for John Bercow. HoC says it was ‘unacceptable’ for Bercow to publicly name house staff and confidential information in his autobiography. Where are all your remain friends now John?
