we can boast all we like but the harsh reality is that we have one of the lowest % of GDP invested in R&D of any country they have records for.
Undoubtedly this^ I have no desire to see the country go down the pan just so I can say "told you so". I do fear the worst, but like you I hope to be proven wrong, though I wonder if the Leavers will hold their hands up and apologise if it does all go pear-shaped? I still think there are things to do though, we could stop it getting worse by helping ensure that lunatics like Farage and Johnson get no more power than they already have.
well he wanted to leave EU so he is quite happy. Corbyn as leader of Labour is just a death wish for their electoral chances
lol What I'd like is for every Leave politician's bank details to be published, no chance they're putting their money where their mouth is in the UK
It's why I think it's vital that Labour remove Corbyn now. Likelihood is that Johnson will be next Tory leader...Although the Tories have a history of rejecting the Kingslayer.... There needs to be a viable Labour party listening to its voters so the Tories can rejected at the next election which I think will be sooner than 2020. Corbyn is a London centric that only appeals outside to uni students..he's a protestor not a leader.
I was thinking more of the voters than the politicians. They'll just blame everyone else, same as they always do.
Since he wanted to leave hopefully he has ideas beyond how much money it's going to make his mates in the next few years, before all packing to be diplomats and consultants in other countries
Michael Foot died years ago, a bit like Corbyn's chances of remaining Labour leader after yesterdays vote.
The abuse I've seen coming from "remain" voters is a disgrace. The votings finished and the decision cast. Respect it and move on!
If it all goes pear shaped after Brexit then the Tories will get the blame as they were in power when we had the referendum. To take advantage Labour need a stronger and more appealing leader than Corbyn whose ideals are rooted in the 60/70's and the world has moved on.
I'm not condoning abuse, but this isn't the EL final we're talking about. We say "Ah well, that's over - what shall we think of next? Sorry, nah.
I'm not saying you can't discuss it, I'm saying the abuse is uncalled for. WTF is moaning going to achieve?
I don't know who you're referring to, but you said "move on" which in my world means "forget it now because it's done and dusted". The reality is it's only just begun, and there'll probably be plenty of moaning going on, and it might well be justified. If you're not sufficiently engaged to contribute then fine, but plenty of others are.
"Move on" from who voted for what. And I wasn't referring to anyone on here. If you can't contribute without being abusive then don't bother.
