    ???? So the fact that everyone in Europe, regardless of creed, religion, nationality, sexuality, gender, ethnicity has the same rights and is open to the same Freedom of Movement (within certain parameters), but some have decided to move to this country and some haven't of their own free will is proof that this rule is discriminatory and exclusionary????

    I'm not the one that keeps trying to rewrite things.

    The general policy is discriminatory toward non-White countries.

    As a person I'd like to think that if I'm wrong I can accept it and I am wrong often (Mrs luv says so). Simply put your statement about the EU being racist was wrong, it's not perfect but it is not implemented with the intention of being racist. The points based system you would have could discriminate against people, not saying it's wrong but it will be problematic for some ethnic minorities because of a lack of education and/or money once again I don't think the system sets out to be racist but both have their problems and neither of them are intentionally racist. You were wrong so accept it and move on to the next point, perhaps this time you'll be right.

    Is it? It's an interesting concept, but not what I said.

    You use a lot of words to say I'm wrong because you say so, without actually addressing the point.

    Not all all, I have pointed out in many posts how you are wrong, you are chosing to ignore those points.

    I'll give you an example, I started mouthing off about a general election but it was pointed out by some that I was wrong and that the rules state that there should not be a GE. I still think it would be a good idea but on the point of there should be a GE I was wrong. See, not hard is it everyone is wrong now and then.

    Funny, all I remember being told was that the EU was costing us huge amounts of money that at least £350m a week would be spent on the NHS that is currently being spent on the EU, that we would be hugely more competitive outside of the EU, that the regions wouldn't miss a penny and the UK Gov would replace every single penny of EU funds. I also remember them saying that we'd have countries queuing up to do business with us and that 'we are Britain, the 5th biggest economy in the world (well we were the 5th biggest at that point) we'll prosper on our own'.

    I don't remember anyone saying - actually you know what? Post-Brexit our economy will shrink, France will overtake us, the value of the pound will plummet, there will be none of that fictional extra money we promised, indeed we'll need to raise taxes (on the poor) and have further spending cuts, while the pound and economy will take a hit - we don't know how much of a hit as the architects of this whole thing haven't actually got a single plan between them and are all going to race each other to quit so they don't have to clean up the mess!

    I must have missed that message pre-referendum...

    You made some points about a question I never asked and a position I don't hold.

    The simple fact is if you don't like the heat, get out of the kitchen.

    Obviously don't head straight into the other kitchen as Mrs Pete's got all the ovens on in that one as well.

    Too many cooks don't spoil the broth in Pete's house.

    Going round and round in circles and spiraling out of control.

    Easier to draw it tbh.

    That hasn't stopped Custard. Can you take him with you? Tell him there's a rally and that they'll be serving pie and mash.
