    Brexit, for once some facts.

    You are talking idealogically. Try telling that to Jamaicans wanting Uk citizenship. Have you tried emigrating to Australia ? Tell the application board your thoughts. They would smile and ask you what it says on your passport. And its nothing to do with biology, biologically we are identical...

    Too right Daniel...had my parents had choice suspect they,d have said " he,s British" and put me on first boat " home ,which, to be fair, was a possibility prior to 1962 but unlikely, as it was process took rather longer. Jamaicans were British prior to gaining independence. After that...

    Its up to an individual to decide what they were or were not born and not to be told by somebody else. I was born Jamaican thanks Steb.

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    I found your need for repetition very amusing and telling. On a practical note. Some animal welfare group broke into a farm near us and released into the wild all the mink. ( Hundreds of them) They devastated local wildlife , killing young swans, taking over from the otters and generally being...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    Its always a clever ploy when making a poor argument to repeat it over and over again OG. Well done. On the animal welfare issue, you are doing exactly same as you,ve done throughout. You assume because somebody doesn't agree with this particular legislation then they must agree to bear...

    Both OG and Tom can now cut and paste their own cut and paste posts now, sort of re hashing re hash. I,m not sure if that makes it any more original...or less. Honestly Peter read OG,s post from first 20 pages....he,d said everything he had to say by then..just arguing with different posters.

    Although your post has the normal insultory, confrontational tone it is somewhat less condescending and patronising. So well done...it's a start. And by the way, the reply was for Peterl, as normal you reply. I just wonder what you would see as good news OG ? The promised investments must...
