Re: Government & Post Election Discussion
But, but, but...
How can we blame the EU for non-EU migration steadily rising?

It’s fairly obvious that Spain and France are already making plans to use the backstop as a bargaining chip in future trade negotiations. I’d rather they didn’t have the chance.

We're way beyond logic I am afraid. We will blame whoever we're told to blame. It's worked for the last 40 years so no reason to change things.
The joke is of course the ones who control the agenda will continue to do so ...

Re: Government & Post Election Discussion
This is usually the level of incompetence and recklessness one would find in some Labour councils.

Quote:
Northamptonshire declared itself effectively bankrupt in February after it realised it could not balance its books. It declared insolvency again in July after a review revealed it had understated the extent of its financial problems. It must make good a £70m deficit by the end of March to avoid insolvency for a third time.

Quote:
Although the council has already set in train a draconian cuts programme for the current financial year to try to overturn the £70m budget shortfall, the commissioners said this alone would not be enough to prevent insolvency.

And as you can tell from his pronouncements in more recent times, he has been very sceptical of the EU project ever since.

There are quite a few hypocrites like James Dyson, Jacob Rees-Mogg , John Redwood and Lord Ashcroft all moving their investments abroad to escape the shock of a no-deal Brexit.
