Anyone remember a strip in Viz called Lenny leftie? Because we have a case of life imitating art.

It could be spread over a few years but the message would get out to the World. It is what I would like to see, the country become a low tax entity in the World.

Yeah, it's an interesting option you raise. I don't really see the point in massively handicapping ourselves by leaving the EU to do it though. I know some people don't see the benefit directly and are upset about the rules imposed, but the benefit of being within the single market agreement is really quite big both in direct GDP terms and also in the attractiveness of the country to be invested in by both domestic and foreign companies.

Yep, it is just the small print at the bottom that screw one.

Not quite mate. Look at the Steel works, it was the EU who was blocking our Government from stepping in with support. Look at BHS screwed by a couple of cheating thieving, oh you add the adjectives. I do now want to be banned.

Don't detract from the utter failings of this governmen when it comes to the steel industry. It had nothing to do with the EU. Do not let this government get away with the lives it has destroyed.

I don't think it's fair to show anger like that to some of the most vulnerable people in our society. They are who these comments are directed at, and language like 'scroats' and 'leaches' is purely demeaning and divisive.

We should be pointing out fingers to those at the top, not the bottom.

Being "vulnerable" is no excuse for choosing to raise children in a household that cannot provide what they need. It is selfish, irresponsible, and completely unfair to that child.

We're not getting into people's rights to have children. I like how you used inverted commas for the word vulnerable by the way. Shows your thinking on that matter.

Madame Allezlesbleus was in a shop near us today. A euro coin fell out of her purse from recent visit to Paris to see our youngest. When shop assistant saw it she said quite aggressively "take that rubbish out of here we don't want any of that in here"! When Madame Allezlesbleus pointed out in her standard English accent that it was from a visit to France to see daughter shop assistant nearly died of embarrassment, clearly surprised she was talking to and insulting an English woman.
We live in interesting times.

If someone has voted leave to rebell against a government they feel is failing them, that's fine, it doesn't make them uneducated or racist. They feel let down with their current predicament and have tried to change it. No issues. I have an issue with those who have gone in with the sole intention of stopping migrants coming to this country and in doing so have risked our financial stability.

What do you class as uneducated?

No mate, I quoted "vulnerable" because you chose to characterize the people making the decision to raise children they can't afford that way.

Don't say we aren't getting into it because you had a go at someone else calling those types of people scroats and leeches because you think they're "vulnerable", that's such a narrow view to take and doesn't accurately describe the type of people he was talking about.

I knew too many kids growing up in that situation and it wasn't because their parents were vulnerable it was because they were selfish scroats looking to increase their child benefit payments as that was their main source of income. Everyone who liked that other post had probably seen or experienced the same thing.

So no mate, get off your massive high horse here, having kids you can't afford is wrong. Simple as.

It's not a right, it's a responsibility.

As a 'Remain' supporter I am also furious with Juncker

For playing right into the leave side.

By threatening the UK.

He undermined his own position as head of the European Commission by threatening a net contributor to the EU budget.

The head of the commission should not be threatening a country that has paid it's dues!

That alcoholic moron should never of been appointed.

are you sure you were 'remain' lid!

Love Raheem (even though I'm a massive racist ). He's a funny guy.

We've had this discussion in depth once before, Bruce.

You're language throughout that post highlights your contempt towards people with children who struggle to provide for them.

My original point, before I picked up on the guy who mentioned the kids aspect, was aimed at the division of the working class in this country. Divide and conquer at its best, and what is being displayed in your post. We are told the problem lies with those living off benefits, having too many children, and the rest of it.

There is a reason for these things happening, and everybody is a product of their environment. I stand by what I said, the most vulnerable are being blamed for many of societies wrong doings.

That identical to what's happened here in terms of the 'uneducated vote'

They should of put an IQ test at the doors of the polling station, with targets to be reached before entry permitted.

The irony of the uneducated with a should of....

Get a grip ffs you're sounding more like a fascist than Farage. Who's next, the physically impaired?

Embarrassing.
