the reason the snp want to stay in the eu is we them become like the romanians,bulgarians.etc and plead poverty so that our paymasters in Brussels shower us with(bribes) money to keep us in their gang.

You mean shower Britain,Scotland is not in the EU,it comes under the UK.
As for bribes,are you saying Romania and Bulgaria give backhanders to Brussels,if so,have you any proof of it?

I couldn't give a toss about London, there are plenty of jobs outside of London.

IMO, only an idiot would want to move to London.

There is 1.84 million unemployed in the UK,last month there was 560k jobs available in England,most of them being in London,not everyone can afford to pack their bags and move there,more so as folk are moving out of the city because buying a house there costs a small fortune.

This is a genuine question, as I quite confused about the number of jobs available statistic.

Back in 2011, when unemployment was at a record level of 2.7 million, it was stated the that there were only around 500k jobs available, but since then the unemployment figures have dropped by nearly 900k, but there are still around 500k vacancies.

It can't just be stats fiddling, as the number of people employed is currently at it's highest figure of over 31 million.....

I liked living in London. There's always somewhere to go and something to do. Now I live in a village it's nice but sometimes it is boring and I yearn for the 24hour hustle and bustle of London.

My sister loved living in London but it simply became too expensive for her although she still goes back for daytrips when she can because there is so much to do and see up there she says.

My wife and daughter were at the Golden Jubilee at Buckie Palace in 2012,the day prior to that they went to the London Eye,it was ****ing down so they bought a rain mac each,in Edinburgh a few years earlier for the street festival parade,again it was ****ing down,again they bought rain macs,it was £1.00 in Edinburgh,it was £12.00 in London.

My uncle and his wife used to live in Ongar,London,then moved to Harlow,old mill,cracking places,though I heard Old Mill has changed a lot in the past few years.

IMHO it's not a simple YES or NO answer.

We need to be told in clear simple English the pros and cons of leaving.

Not written in gobbledegook that only 1% can understand.

Only then can I make a proper judgement.

I want us to leave the EU, so we can get rid of undesirable without all this human rights BS. Then terrorist suspects can't use us as a safe haven. Also stop those how come here just to claim our benefits.

The EU and the EU human rights courts are separate entities you don't have to accept one to be in the other

How many exactly of the 560k were positioned in London?

The latest vacancies figure I can find is 733k in April (down from 745k From March) - can't find a breakdown by region.

http://www.tradingeconomics.com/unit.../job-vacancies

Update - this is just under two years old, but shows a breakdown by region.

http://www.ons.gov.uk/ons/rel/bus-re...-industry.html

Of the 435k vacancies at that time, 135k were in London, 300k outside.....

re: [Update] The UK votes to leave the EU
 
So no answer then?

Except that there are 200k more jobs than posted. But no one can say how many are based within m25
