EU red tape is not simply a political soundbite. For British firms, particularly SMEs, it can be the difference between profit and loss, between job creation, and business prospering, or shutting down and innovation being smothered. Ill-thought-out regulations might just be a nuisance or the cost of doing business for larger firms used to spanning continents, but for others it can define their success or failure.
Nor are the costs involved small beer. The Regulatory Policy Committee, an independent government body, recently revealed that new EU rules have imposed £2.3 billion in net costs to businesses since 2013, wiping out the £2.2 billion the UK Government saved cutting domestic red tape during the same period. No wonder independent polling shows that business leaders want a looser, trading relationship with the EU rather than the increasingly regulated political union we are in today.

Re: Post-Brexit Thread
Brexit opinion surveys show huge swing to Remain in UK regions that voted Leave
Most people now want to remain in the European Union in parts of the UK that voted overwhelmingly for Brexit, according to opinion surveys by several different local newspapers.
The Wolverhampton-based Express and Star newspaper became the fourth outlet to publish results showing a complete u-turn in public opinion on Saturday, with 60 per cent of respondents saying they would now vote to stay in the EU. Three other regional publications in the north east and the West Midlands recorded similar findings.

Shame, they won't get another vote though so really it's immaterial.

Re: Post-Brexit Thread
"All the scientific polling that has been done at national level... has shown the overwhelming majority of people on both sides would vote pretty much exactly as they did before.

My guess is he didn't ban you for saying the 'B' word, but for actually talking bollocks

So, even now, the opinion polls are being quoted to try to give credibility to an untruth. I would take no notice of them, Andrew, as the manner in which they are carried out is flawed. Given that 52% voted in favout of Brexit when the opinion polls were confidently predicting 'remain', it just shows the degree of inaccuracy that occurs.

No because that's just not accurate. You really want to go over your infraction record here ? Ok. Good job we keep all details logged isn't it ?
Actually, you received 0 point infraction for Pushing your luck at a CF Team action / Decision : Which included the use of the word "bollocks". Btw... 0 point infraction does not ban you.
You received a subsequent infraction for abusing / sending offensive remarks via the Reputation System to another forum member, that got you 3 points. That would not ban you or even suspend you. Had you got 5 points that is a 1 day suspension of your posting privileges.
Therefore : No ban was issued as per our records. Now, if I was really bothered, I should escort you to the door for telling blatant lies, but I'm not.
