Current Affairs EU In or Out

[daza_1973]

That awkward moment when a remain campaigner assumes you voted for Brexit....

 

[ianefc]

I don't mate

It'll be carnage if the leave voters feel they've been "betrayed" and innocent people could get caught in the crossfire

If you're saying the movement of free people will be tough to stop, then who is it that's made the exit voters feel it won't be? They must be the ones to blame.

 

[bring the ghost on]

And remaining, letting the EU have control over our migration policy was the right solution?

It's not perfect, but as others have pointed out, free movement of peoples is a concession which is made even by Non-EU member states who want the free trade advantages.

 

[Whistlin' Dixie]

they're not facts, they're garbled Daily Express headlines.

Yeah, alright.

The clue was in the 40 romanians in one house, but you're not bright enough to get it; so I suppose I'll have to point out their exploitation, and how their exploitation affects the native lower classes.

Some socialist, you lad.

Is that a regular thing? 40 Romanians in one house? And it's having massive problems on the UK? You're a nut.

You're clearly an out of date left winger who doesn't realise the world has moved on

It shouldn't be a be-all and end-all.

That approach was not favourable to us. If it wasn't favourable and they were rigidly insisting on it, it's best we got out and renegotiated the terms as we were getting no joy when we were paying for the privelege.

Who they choose to blame will be important

They are going to be furious and it could get very ugly very quickly

Will they blame the people that misled them, or will they blame the immigrants themselves? Will it be both?

Oh, hang on, you must be one of those 'progressive' types that wanted to maintain the status quo within the EU.

Pfft.

 

[Groucho]

but you're not bright enough to get it

Come on mate, there's ways to say things and this isn't one of them.

 

[bring the ghost on]

So there are no people who can't get a job because they are being taken by parasitical agencies who employ exclusively from abroad, and are then getting their dole stopped by the PCS (DWP branch) union because they've committed the CRIME of being out of work?

Why do the agencies employ exclusively from abroad - are they breaking the law in paying less than the minimum (soon to be living) wage? Or are they using zero-hours contracts or utilising other loop-holes?

Again, we agree on the problems, but not the solutions. I don't see the answer as stopping immigration, it should be stopping those agencies, otherwise the situation will not improve - British people will still have awful job opportunities and be paid a poor wage.

If what you're saying comes true, it really will weed out those small minded bigots who voted for no reason other then to keep Migrants away. I hope they fume.

They can fume all they want

I just don't want them to tear the place apart

Sometimes you have to compromise - you can't choose your favourite fundamental pillars of the EU (free trade) without the ones you don't want (free movement of people).

Who will they fume at? I mean over 5 in every 10 people voted the same way as them, although I'm sensible enough (just) to assume the majority who voted out did so with the best of intentions, because when all said and done most people are good people.

They'll drive the UKIP vote up at the next election though..
