Current Affairs EU In or Out

[GrandOldTeam]

Really looking forward to celebrating independence day.

I hope we get an annual holiday for it.

I don't want to stop anyone, the current system favours white europeans

I'd like a more compassionate and open setup. With more freedom to move, more options for work, and amnesty for those here a long period of time, up until EU membership ends etc

If you want you can now campaign in UK for completely open border policy and we could do it

You seem to be a bit confused. Not long ago you were saying that (mostly non-white) refugees were causing mass youth unemployment, and now you say you want to stop free movement because all of Europe is apparently white and coming here to pick up benefits. It's hard to know where to start to be honest. And regarding your last point, that does appear to be Labour's policy (as per their conference at least), and if they actually campaigned on that, I would seriously consider backing them.

I can’t wait until the EU Army of Occupation leaves the country.

Itd liken it, given the common law that surrounds employment, to a sui generis status.

You'll get a more reasonable response from someone who doesn't hold them in such low esteem as I do

 

[Bruce Wayne]

There's nothing to stop us from still offering a safe haven. It's the ability to pick and chose who's allowed in that's key; those who genuinely seek refuge or those who seek to take us for all we've got.

Take us for all we've got? Who is this we you speak of? Are they the same 'we' who apparently have a better insight into someone's character, motivations and circumstances than the person themselves?

And please don't say it's about needed skills, as American companies have been begging for visa rules to allow them to recruit who they need for years to no avail, and only this week 40 of the leading business schools in the US wrote an open letter to Trump saying his immigration policy is strangling American growth. Is this the kind of 'we' you were thinking of?

You could hate traffic wardens for all I know. It doesn't have a bearing on their employment status.

......Johnson being lauded as a hero by his own. It’s as expected. For some reason the Conservative Party remind me of LFC.

The same thing happened with May when she got her deal. I remember one of the right wing tabloids having the headline "She's Done It!!!!" the following morning and treating her as the returning hero. After a couple of days the ERG etc. had circled the wagons and she was in traitor territory and it was the worst deal ever.

The EU aren't that bad mate.

Nope, but Boris, Farage, Robinson (Yaxley-Lennon) Gove and Rees-Mogg etc are, alongside being utter vermin

They don’t leave. They go from being an army that we’re part of, to an occupying enemy force.

I like traffic wardens.

 

[ToffeeTim]

Despite today, I still expect the deal to be rejected and an extension to be granted.

But everyone is just fed up.

Damn, I'd hate to think some tiny number of people were coming to Britain and abusing our crazily generous out of work benefits.

 

[Tubey]

Embarrassing. Just try the truth for a change instead of constantly misleading.

On Saturday, when it's voted down, a request will be asked for and given, because we won't have a deal to enforce.

Just lie after lie about Brexit.

 

[DowellsLeftPeg]

Free movement was part of the treaty of Rome in the 1950s. Do people really do so little research?

I know it's a founding pillar of EU, but it's also a cornerstone of European federalism

Other unions in history have had many trials and tribulations on route to becoming a country

Those who take the pi$$ out of the welfare state, we've got enough of our own who do that already.
