Here goes:emoticon-0107-sweat:
I hope Labour lose their deposit in the new byelection. Then maybe Messrs. Abbott, McDonall etc will realise that with Jeremy at the helm they'll lose their seats at the next general election. I imagine a few other Labour MP's are job-hunting as well.

He is an utter, utter embarrassment. A bloke that can be drawn out so easily, is in charge of the largest nurclear warhead arsenal in the world.
 
Have there been any recent approval ratings/polls in the States?

Wouldn't be surprised if he's still polling well...
 
Hard Brexit is what I voted for, the Harder the better. <cheers>

I would go even further, and offer the 3m Eastern Europeans who have come here since 2004, a cash payment to return.
 
Pardon my ignorance - but what is there to celebrate yet? I can only speak from my experience, but invoicing is becoming a huge headache right now with conversion rates etc. (this is of corse seperate to my farming business.)

The unknown still scares me ****less personally. From current experience, being a start up business is seemingly carrying more challenges with this.
 
Out of interest, how much ? and is it restricted to just eastern Europeans?

I would restrict it to all the Eastern Europeans who have settled here since Labour's dishonest accession deal in 2004 - the one they hushed up. That would involve around 2m immigrants including 860,000 Poles.
The Govt should offer them £500 to return home - a lot of money in most of their homelands. This can easily be done once we have pulled out of the EU in 2019 and have proper control of our borders. We simply do not need that number of people and the pressure they are putting on our services. It is not fair to their own countries either - they need plumbers and latte makers in Latvia and Estonia as much as we do.
