Current Affairs EU In or Out

[Joey66]

Holy smoke Joey. For the billionth time, WE NEVER JOINED THE EURO. WE NEVER WILL,

And Greece grabbed the opportunity to do so like a sailor on leave. No one forced them.

Really we negotiated an easy leave deal with the EU - oh wait........if they overturn the UK referendum that will be about 7 referendums they have overturned..
Just looking Greenland in 1982 had a in/out referendum out won by 53 % they just left no messing......

Would it surprise you if they were?

It surprises me that they can hijack their own demonstration.

WTF has that got to do with Greece and the Euro?

Sodium chlorate and sodium chloride (common salt) are not the same thing. Sodium chlorate has the formula NaClO3. Sodium chloride is NaCl. They have totally different properties. One is labelled as hazardous (sodium chlorate), the other (sodium chloride) is not.The hazards associated with sodium chlorate are: may cause fire or explosion, strong oxidiser, harmful if swallowed, causes eye irritation, toxic to aquatic life. The hazards associated with sodium chloride are: none.

Also, hazard classification of chemicals has now been harmonised across the world, so anything labelled as corrosive in Europe will also be labelled as corrosive in the USA, for example. In the same way, sodium chlorate will have the same classification in the USA as it does in the UK or elsewhere in Europe.

So mine unpurified rock salt pure mined salt on our roads in winter that eventually washes down our road drains has more chance of hitting our waterways than in horticulture on garden paths etc... urm.......

Where do you even begin with it? Trying his best to cause hysteria - as usual.

Salt is not hazardous to the environment in the same way that Sodium Chlorate is.

This is getting to the point of genuine idiot levels now, they aren't the same thing.

 

[Ruairi77]

you could ask exactly the same about the remainers.

probably not much politicians
though I've been liking what I hear from Heseltine (never thought I'd say that)
respected public figures,
JK Rowling
Steve Coogan
Gary Lineker
Patrick Stewart
Idris Elba
The late Stephen Hawking

Obviously this is subjective.

Not sure who he is. But his point was absurd.

If he was half intelligent, he could have framed his point far better, in a way that would actually make sense, and lend more weight to his point.

Bur he didnt. It was absurd.

The Greece that was a basket case of an economy that was about to go bankrupt before the EU moved in
The Greece that was getting it’s social welfare system abused by an Island where 90% of the residents ( including bus and taxi drivers ) were legally blind
Is that the Greece you refer to

What a load of twaddle.

There is no problem with salt. There is with sodium chlorate, which is a totally different chemical. It is not the same thing. Salt being washed into our waterways from roads is not a problem. If sodium chlorate was being washed into the waterways it would be a problem. You started this by confusing sodium chlorate with salt and thinking they were the same thing when they aren't.

I'm surprised he isn't at Parliament Square with the rest of the mutants.
