    Brexit, for once some facts.

    The world never ceases to amaze me. Daughter been saying they often get stones and eggs thrown at fire engines when they are on calls. I just dont understand it. Fire crew turn up to save lives often putting themselves at risk and get abuse from some. What on earth is that about???

    Its not at all. Flecc wouldnt have broached subject had he not been willing to answer questions. Its a fair question which Flecc and I sort of covered. Seems to me folk actually " enjoying" the time is not that important. Its how valueable the time is. People live in hope and "enjoy" things us...

    Did you speak to him about it flecc. How many of us would make that choice even knowing it would happen. People seem to have an inherent desire to stay here even in the most dire of circumstances. Saw it with my step father who battled and battled fron 90 to 97. He wanted to make 100...

    Again, the fact a no deal is the alternative adds pressure on MPs to vote hercdeal through. In effect next time its voted on the choices are no deal or Mays deal. Last time it wasnt. I suspect its bound to get through.

    That tho Danidl would almost guarantee a no deal. Uk are in more of a bargaining position than you assume. Besides, whats to be gained by saying no to a minor delay...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    No, I dont think anyone said anything of kind. Fact is we are living with smallest percentage of world population in poverty than any other time in modern history. And helped in no small measure by China raising its living standards to a point where bordering on a billion people have been taken...

    I have honestly not touched the above quote. (well I removed the surrounding linguistic diarrhea) Its random babble again OG. What are you doing. Its utter rubbish and sounds like the ravings of a mad person who has English as their 10th language. I think you wrote it and went back through...

    Well at least it proves you listened, read the link. However, the prescient aspect was not his criticism of IMF or banks (yes, probably right as you said but so what) it was his attack on EU. He hates it more than you hate leavers. Where does that leave your concept of Brexit is for...

    Not much wrong with yours either Danidl. I, ve had more than my fair share of seeing and trying to deal with social injustice. Brexit might or might not be significant in curing it or making it worse. Nobody really knows and we seem to be in an impossible position deciding when both extremes of...

    Jesus OG give it a rest. You really are losing it. Calm down for gods sake. You are sounding like a temperance minister from 20's. Whats next, fire and brimstone and wrath of god.. Workhouses will not be reopening in April, the world and UK are already an unfair place and our social saviour...

    Its nice when you can find so much good in the world OG.. Keep smiling. I like the Churchillian persona, if you must have visions of grandeur he, s the one to go for. Really clever.
