I agree that the way the EU went about the Lisbon Treaty was poor.

But I think a country that has been able to build its economy on the basis of being able to attract massive companies to base there because it's in the single market, is better off in the EU than outside.

Like Google, Amazon and I am sure you knopw of the other obliging companies. But for me you ignore the ever increasing control Brussels is exercising over member states. Your thinking is to narrow.

 

[Toffeelover]

No? I'll tell you then.

Money doesn't go as far, people find themselves with less disposable income.

People spending less causes a downturn.

Two consecutive quarters and you've got a...?

Clearly from your posts you voted to remain part of the EU - Why?

Paw Patrol

They done an episode where the dogs guarded the channel tunnel. A bit hardcore for such a young audience imo.

Nope, I wanted us to stay in and reform massively, but reform or not, the Irish have been able to attract the backbone of their economy because of their status in the EU.

I'd be the first to demand democratic reform within the EU.

The BBC did not mention money as a sweetener wrong again they gave sanarios no mention of an actual cash insentive th e word may was used the were many other reasons too you forgot to post as usual as it's great news!

Itv news no sweetener was used just our growing economy in the future outside the EU!

Which programmes?

 

[Toffeelover]

Nissan is good news. BBC News pointing out that it took a bit sweetener.

I hope they can afford it for all car manufacturers and other business.

Surely a bit of a sweetner as you claim is better than saying goodbye to the thousands of jobs

Rubbish, Eire sets it's business tax well lower than the rest of the EU states hence Google etc use that as their base fro tax avoidance.

I wonder if we dropped out CT to 12% would you say we have been able to attract the backbone of our economy?

Sweeteners happen in almost all business deals to some degree. They happened before brexit and they'll happen after brexit.

I support brexit myself but I've decided it's best to wait it out and see tangible successes it brings. People will be won round in time I've no doubt.

 

[Joey66]

And in the real world

It is the real world outside the reigns of the EU!

Then one could also say the tax rates of Eire, Luxembourg are sweetners?

Don't be daft all these Remoaners want their cake and eat itlol

Of course. But ROI is bust. And the UK will bring down business taxes to similar levels. I'm all in favour of a low tax society.

There are plenty of countries with low tax rates. Why not Cayman? Iceland? Macedonia? Uzbekistan? Qatar?

What has Ireland got..?
