Lemmings :

David Cameron wanted the Great Britain to remain in the European Union, however, his frail campaign failed because he never informed the British voters of the biggest advantage of staying, which is EU’s new Anti Tax Avoidance Directive.

To convince the British people to vote remain, Mr Cameron had to remind them that by staying in the EU, his government would have had to implement EU’s Anti Tax Avoidance Directive by the year 2019, by enacting new laws and collecting taxes from everyone, including our tax-dodging billionaires.

However, throughout his political career, Mr Cameron wasn’t keen on ending extreme austerity measures by collecting taxes from the wealthy elite registered in tax havens.

Every time the EU undertook momentous actions to end tax-avoidance amongst its member states, Mr Cameron responded by issuing his momentous announcements regarding the British EU referendum.

In January of 2013, Brussels produced a concrete action plan for a new EU directive that would end tax-avoiding practices amongst its member states, and within a month, Mr Cameron confirmed that he favours an EU-referendum, stating:

“And I want us to be pushing to exempt Europe’s smallest entrepreneurial companies from more EU Directives.”



Within that year, Mr Cameron undertook his first push to exempt Europe’s smallest entrepreneurial companies from more EU Directives, by requesting from the President of the European Council to exclude offshore trusts from the EU’s new Anti Tax Avoidance Directive.

Practicals. Managed WTO

Lord Lilley is a former Secretary of State for Trade & Industy and for Social Security.

The highly unpopular provisions in the Prime Minister’s draft Withdrawal Agreement that could keep the UK indefinitely in the EU Customs Union are driven not just by a pointless attempt to avoid a hard border between the UK and EU in Ireland, but by fears that they will impose costs, cause delays, disrupt supply chains and undermine economic growth.

Those fears are unnecessary, for many of the problems ascribed to leaving the EU’s Customs Union are imaginary and most of the rest are exaggerated. ...

May be not a fix but a facilitated win!...

Stacey Dooley wins strictly.
I will accept that result.
..I've been multi tasking tonight.

It’s a fantastic advert for the EU that these people are ‘desperateR17; to leave France to get to England.

Patriotism is a powerful force that as easily exploited.
This is the danger here.

Nicola sturgeon tried to appeal to Scottish patriotism, but the last referendum failed because they feared there living standards would fall.

A question I would like to ask Brexiteers is hypothetical;

If Carney and Richard Branson are right and it will be economically bad for us and our families, would you still want to leave?

Amazing how many immigrants risk their lives to get to Britain. It would seem that poverty drives people to forget patriotism.

exl, it could well be Corbyn posting his real thoughts!

[1carus] 15/12/2018 20:12

Cateful you stats are simply wrong. Old people have died but there are now more old people than 2016. Who knows what way they will vote. I suspect as people get oldet they get more "Rule Britania"

[exlogicalad] 15/12/2018 20:08

corby3.......I hope there isn't an 'N' missing from the end of your handle.

Unfortunately it doesn't work like that, pity because we have been keeping the German car makers with fat profits and full employment for years.

All of the bashing from Remain never mentions the wobbly state Europe is in. Only Germany is doing well and that is all about to change.

I bought shares in Lloyds this year and read this bulletin board.

I have to admit that I have never posted on boards and I didn't vote in the referendum. But if there were to be another referendum, I would vote leave and so would many who never voted in 2016.

I am appalled at the way we are being spoken to and treated by people who are little more than Bureaucrats, unelected by the people and dictating to us.

The UK have contributed billions to the EU, are all of the things our money was invested worth nothing anymore, why are we paying these dictators.

If you contributed a large share into buying a house, your investment would grow, why are we being so soft here..they should be paying us our share of the assets we bought.

Careful your wish to stay will turn to a nightmare in a few years time, especially now you will not have a say.But I don't expect any better from remainers because they are brainwashed by Labour.

There was a programme on BBC 4 this week covering the Industrial Revolution and thinkers such as Matthew Bourton prior to that: with that inherited attitude and intelligence I am wondering why we people are afraid of no deal.

Oh, and with one single MP, the Green lobby are the architects of fuel poverty in the Uk.

Indeed the atitude of the EU Elite have reinforced LEAVE.

LEAVE and WTO

[robwt] 15/12/2018 19:23

I wasn't really concerned that Remain in would win the Referendum, in my heart I was Leave but thought that it would have gone to Remain.

So when I heard Caroline Lucas on Question Time the other night, it disturbed me that although she was careful with her words, she was dismissing it all under the illusion that Leave voters didn't know what they were doing.

With people like Lucas I despair, I haven't met one Leave voter yet who has changed their mind and after watching Barnier, Tusk and Juncker literally tell us all 'you are not going to leave this Mafia without being punished' who do you think you are you don't count.

What I do know now, that I didn't then, is that they are nothing more than power crazed dictators. Barnier a jumped up French politician, Tusk an ex PM of Poland and the corrupt Juncker a sozzled alcoholic.

I am now far more in favour of Leave than I was in 2016.

Unless we give them knives and swords, it could get interesting then :-)
