British Politics

Of course it does. Money is money, whoever it comes from. Businesses are thinking about their own profits, so will move accordingly. The EU isn't forcing anyone to do anything, those grants aren't aimed at ****ing over the UK, they're to support poorer countries in improving their economies.

Do you think all the companies should be in the UK and at the same time we restrict who can come here?

If 'No Deal' Brexit is such a good idea then why are they still trying to agree on a deal? Apart from Farage this is the most pro-Brexit government you could have had, do you not think it's a bit strange that they're still trying to negotiate a deal?

 

Of course it does. Money is money, whoever it comes from.
Are you saying that if a country uses a currency then that makes it a capitalist country?

"Do you think all the companies should be in the UK and at the same time we restrict who can come here?"
I think companies should be where they want to be without being given grants to relocate from one country to another.

Are you saying there shouldn't be any restrictions on who can come to the UK?

 

When did "No Deal" come into it? This is the first time you mentioned "No Deal" in this particular discussion.

I don't think there's anything wrong with a deal if it's a reasonable deal. I would prefer "No Deal" to an unreasonable deal.

Labour say there MUST be a deal but when they are asked if they will vote for a deal they say they will have to look at a deal first. This means they are saying that "No deal is better than a bad deal" even though they disagree with that statement.

 

Do you always behave like this when your ideas are shown to be wrong?

So let's get this straight. You blame the EU for companies moving their business out of Britain but all the British financial institutions who want to trade in the EU will need to be based there because you voted Brexit?

OK then!

 

There is 0 evidence that Brexit will benefit the common man. There is a lot of evidence that it will make a lot of money for rich people. JRM has been quiet recently, too busy building his Scrooge McDuck money pool from his Brexit bonanza.

 

'Unreasonable deal' is a meaningless term. A deal is struck between 2 parties with compromises, if one side considers it a 'win' then it's generally a 'loss' for the other side. That's how trade negotiations work.

The EU have the upper hand as they are a bigger market that we want access to + rely upon for our imports. Most Brexiters think we can give them a list of demands that they must accept, which is not how deal-brokering works.

 

No, I'm saying that businesses will move locations if they make more money from it. You're an accountant, surely that makes sense.

As I said earlier, do you think this only applies to companies in the UK or all over the EU? Also, these are mostly foreign companies, why do they owe us anything?

 

THEY ALL OWE US WE GAVE THE WORLD CHAS AND DAVE!!1

 

So why do you edit somebody else's post? I can see why anybody would think that is a sensible thing to do.

 

"No, I'm saying that businesses will move locations if they make more money from it. You're an accountant, surely that makes sense."
You seem to totally miss my point that a supranational organisation giving grants for companies to relocate is not capitalism.

 

The greatness of a man is not in how much wealth he acquires, but in his integrity and his ability to affect those around him positively.

"The EU have the upper hand as they are a bigger market that we want access to + rely upon for our imports."

We will have access to their market whether there is a deal or no deal.

If there is no deal then we can import from outside the EU without having to accept the high tariffs that the EU imposes.

 

Nope, let me spell it out for you; forget the economics, that means little to your average Nationalist. Creepy pete dislikes the EU because he doesn’t want Frogs and Woppos having a say in “his” country’s future. Just as you don’t like the U.K. because you don’t want Nigels having a say in “your” country’s future.

You and creepy pete are kindred spirits. Throwbacks, really, to the 19th Century. In the 21st, enlightened folk recognise that nationalism is utterly ******ed, and cooperation between nations benefits everyone.

 

You don’t have a ****ing clue about tariffs do you?

 

Are you against tax breaks for businesses to relocate?
