    Is right

    And exactly what our resident H&S expert agreed with when I asked him directly whether post Brexit it was likely to be worse.

    Without doubt was his answer....

    Nah, he offered his opinion for the future, which was only a tiny part of your argument, and not the whole point you were making. There are also others in that area of work that disagree.

    It falls over anyway, as even if it turns out to be right, it's also true that labour could bring it all back. If the EU dropped the standards, which is a real possibility, we have far less chance of changing it back. All in all, it points to the decision to leave being a benefit.

    You need a better risk assessment for your posts. I assume the ouch thing occurs when the pellets hit your foot,

    To be fair you and all of your ilk have to say that.

    The alternative would be to admit that you've ended up with a Remain PM who will negotiate a Brexit deal that may not sit well with the, ironically largely undefined, policies of the Brexit campaign you voted for.

    For people like SS Officers Saxton and Kustard, this is a disastrous outcome as the foreigners they are so scared of will still be allowed to come to the UK and steal their jobs and (Polish) women.

    The best thing about May's appointment as PM is that Farage will be ****ing livid!

    He deliberately edited the post when he quoted it to take that bit out. Manipulating and dishonest of him but he has the gaul to throw his dummy out at me <laugh>

    Brexit means Brexit

    There is no timeline for Brexit

    There is no definition of Brexit

    ---

    Two belong to Teresa, one belongs to Stan, all three are relevant.

    As victories go, it's just become incredibly hollow!

    Awful press conference tbh. Badly orchestrated and the delivery was woeful. If she's the best the Labour Party can come up with then it confirms my fear that the pool to choose from is far too shallow. I'm hoping David Milliband appears and adds some credibility to the whole thing.

    If you are not pissed then you are simply stupid.

    His first line was a direct comment to you being wrong about me, he went on to explain why. That was the key and specific element of his post to you. BobbyD then went on, by ending that first paragraph, to make a further, general aside about three others. You made a vitriolic comment (as usual) without naming who it was you was atacking; it was perfectly reasonable to believe you were referring to the single subject of the first paragraph who BobbyD specially defended and you contested.

    So, reading skills not a strong suit for you, either? <doh>

    Another early start, Treble. Yes, I did deliberately edit the post as the prime subject was in the first paragraph - anyone with an ounce of nous knows that, as BobbyD clearly structured his post for that reason.

    Nothing dishonest, just basic reading and writing skills, coupled with normal post conventions. Are you new to this? <doh>

    Now, you mentioned dishonesty; have you decided to tell the truth now and stop telling lies? When you have been caught red handed telling damaging lies it is probably best not to be thick enough to keep putting your dishonesty and stupidity under the spotlight. You really are a pathetic individual: grow up, ffs! :emoticon-0105-wink:

    The day I get to be as stupid and pig ignorant as you, maybe I will start drinking!

    It was plainly obvious to everybody else here who I was referring to. Only not you? So, any normal person, not including you of course, would just leave it there. But no, being the numbskull you are you have to carry on.

    The only speciality you have is the typical Hull & Yorkie one of being thick headed, pig ignorant, and a complete know it all - who actually knows **** all

    I've read a few comments from people claiming the leave vote limits the opportunities for our youth.

    I can't help thinking that they're unaware of the wider world that we're still very much a part of, but even just looking at Europe, I wonder where they think these opportunities are, given it's high youth unemployment in much of the EU that's a significant driver for them heading here and contributing to the reduction of opportunities for our youth.

    David Cameron to chair final cabinet as UK prime minister
    http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-politics-36769898
    Meanwhile, in the Labour Party ...
    Labour to decide on Corbyn ballot entry
    "A decision on whether Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn should automatically be included in the party's leadership race is set to be made by its ruling National Executive Committee.
    Labour-commissioned legal analysis states he needs nominations by 51 MPs and MEPs - just like any challenger - but unions say, as leader, he does not.
    Mr Corbyn has vowed to fight any exclusion from the ballot paper.
    Angela Eagle launched a challenge to Mr Corbyn's leadership on Monday.
    The former shadow business secretary said she could provide the leadership "in dark times for Labour" that Mr Corbyn could not.
    Mr Corbyn, who was elected leader in a vote of grassroots members last year, will speak at the Unite union's policy conference in Brighton later, as the party's NEC meets in London.
    "The subject matter - the internal rules of a Labour leadership contest - sounds dry," says BBC political correspondent Iain Watson.
    "But the decision Labour's national executive makes later today could be explosive.
    "If Jeremy Corbyn is forced to seek nominations from 50 fellow MPs, he could struggle to get on the ballot as only 40 of his party backed him on a motion of no confidence recently."
    More than 170 supported the motion, following a series of resignations from the shadow cabinet by MPs protesting at Mr Corbyn's leadership.
    The BBC has seen legal advice sent to Unite by solicitors that says: "The rules by which the Labour Party is governed are unambiguous: the leader does not require any signatures to be nominated in a leadership election where there is a potential challenger to the leadership."
    It is thought Mr Corbyn would struggle to amass 51 signatures because his support is concentrated in the party's wider membership.
    The solicitors make clear that legal action will be launched unless Mr Corbyn is automatically on the leadership ballot, and they would halt any leadership election by applying to the High Court for an injunction.
    Meanwhile, a YouGov poll for the Election Data website suggested that of 1,221 trade union members surveyed, 63% thought Mr Corbyn was doing badly as leader, compared with 33% who thought he was doing well."

    I've just replied to the relevant bit, again, as the rest is your usual brand of utter bollocks.

    All I saw was two remarks from the other, rather biased, fools, but if you want to appear even more desperate to be right then crack on....

    ... But you're not and folk know you're not. <ok>

    Mate, you are the only one who didn't seem to realise who I was referring to.

    The only person here determined to be right, even when they're patently wrong, is you.

    And you can put up all the smilies you like. They still won't make you right!....

    Spain and Portugal are set to incur the full wrath of Brussels for not meeting the EU deficit rules.

    The expectation is that they'll each get a letter asking them not to do it again.

    <laugh> ... the company I work for is one of the largest employers in the UK ... we have plenty of 'opportunities' ... but British youth isn't that interested in filling them ... surprise surprise ... hence whole shifts are more or less completely manned by European, African and Asian immigrants ... that is the reality ... the ease of welfare state support has led to generations of British gamer sloths that won't work for a living but will be ******** if they are going to share the same benefits with people from overseas ... because they are OUR benefits <laugh> ...

    There are a couple of things that it will be a shame to lose for our most educated youth. The ability to study within the EEA as if you are a national of that country has been used by many to avoid finishing degrees and having large student debts, the Erasmus exchange program has benefits for those looking to work in areas requiring European cooperation. Also our educated youth benefit from European cooperative research projects, something the EU are already refusing to fund if UK nationals are involved and research is expected to last more than 2 years.
    The youth unemployment is also not consistent across Europe, ours is 13%, Germany 7%, Netherlands 11% so while some may come here for jobs, our youth can also go abroad to take advantage of other markets. It is also the case that the southern european countries have seen significant drops in unemployment rates over the last 12 months.
