The thing with jobs is not as it was. With the introduction of the Living wage those who wouldn't take these jobs in the past would be only too happy to take them now. This is the reason we have so many immigrants because they were brought over in the 60s to do these menial jobs. Here's an example. How many would flock to drive buses now - A task that was beneath them in the past? The predicted doom and gloom is just that.

China is a nuclear financial bomb waiting to explode. Who can tell how healthy their banking and economic system is when their whole system is so corrupt?
There are a lot of unknowns, but I believe there are a lot of unknowns by staying in the EU and I vote out.

I think the risks are higher staying in given the state of the Euro economy. The Euro WILL collapse eventually and they can't keep throwing cash at Greece forever, can they? This is more likely to trigger a global meltdown rather than leaving.

Indeed it does. When I was studying Modern Studies, out lecturer told us that the paper you read can say a lot about the type of person you are. It's a kind of status symbol.

Two months ago the Express said we were going to have the longest ever heatwave. Eight weeks into the cricket season we have so far played two games. I think thats about the limit of the Express forecasting.

Ah but, have you noticed Summer doesn't really get going until July these days. As a gardener, I can see this year after year. The winters are not as cod and some flowers that would be gone are still there in my garden. At this stage of the year the garden should be a wash of colour but it isn't. The Fox gloves are just blooming now - a month late. The Roses are not out yet but there are plenty buds on them and the Tomatoes are way behind. There could well be an 8 week heat wave right up to the end of September these days.

He would've been the one behind the headline!

This is a case where I wish more would 'jump on the bandwagon' and the leave result would be guaranteed.
