Well if the head of the bank of England, most business people, politicians, political parties, multiple economists, the treasury and pretty much every scientist, engineer and university isn't enough then I'm not sure

Ain't these the same people who failed to predict the global recession a few years back?

Ain't these the same people who thought it was a good idea to lose the Pound and have the Euro?

If these same people are voting remain then clearly the leave party got it right.

Sorry for the intrusion by the way. I wondered if there was talk on the EU referendum over here as nothing on it our end and was interested on what people's thought's were. It's weird that I find myself in a strange place that I agree with the majority of you reds :)

Apparently despite being stable now and a remain vote hardly affecting anything an apocalypse will happen if we vote remain

What apocalypse?

The UK is not stable. It has enormous problems which remain have no answer to. Some of the problems like low wages and housing shortages these leaders you bang on about are in favour of. The head of the bank of England wants the UK in the EU so immigration keeps wages down.

Why would the bank of England want waged to remain low. Why don't we put up minimum wage if we are that concerned about low wages rather than ****flinging the blame at immigrants.

We are putting up the minimum wage, it's now called the living wage and it will attract hundreds of thousands of immigrants from
Poorer countries.

A typical bullshit excuse from the outers so they can pay people less money and create more profit for themselves

BHS and Woolworths should of listened to you then <laugh>

I think you will find that they tried running on lower profit margins and look at them now! I know it's nothing to do with the EU but you drifted it this way. But if you're a corporate company you've still got to return a healthy profit. No one is paying below the goverment set LIVING WAGE only dodgy back street companies set up by a big majority of immigration. You can't tell me the ones cleaning cars and all probably living in the same property are paying taxes or on minimum set wages.
I get the idea that you want us to go like the old communist states where you get paid for a role virtually the same regardless of if you've been trained in a sector or just a labourer.
Once you are qualified and possibly free lancing you will then learn about making a profit.

Once again you don't seem to have any understanding of the post and have responded in a manner that wasn't there in the reply.. Its no wonder you are unable to back up your posts if don't seem capable of understanding the posts.

Balanced with this.. when taken as a net contribution after rebates.


However, on a net basis, Britain was the second largest contributor to the EU budget last year. It put €10.8bn more into the EU pot last year than it took out. Only Germany paid more on a net basis

Perhaps if we used the money through using the funds available to part fund things such as infrastructure and development we'd have less of a deficit

Bhs went bankrupt because they failed to sell what they produced. I applied for a job there once and the conditions weren't exactly world class.

I think you are absolutely right O U T
with such weak frail comments and arguments do you think somebody is just winding up?

Perhaps if we didn't put the money in in the first place we would have 3 times as much to fund things.. The deficit you refer to was caused by the Labour government you love so much borrowing billions of pounds to 'invest' that we didn't have, they directly created the deficit with no infrastructure or development to show for it.!
