There is a price to be paid either way.. which one will be the worse (I know) soon we all find out .

.. why should brussels care what we do. Well if you don't understand the mentality of thinking and governing of the bureaucrats in Brussels by now I can't help you on this.

[ladeside] 22/2/2019 13:20

k38, why should brussels care what we do. We've opted to go it alone, so what we choose from here on in will be all our own doing and of no concern to them.

Prior to our exit they did indeed support the Union, as you should well know, during the Scottish referendums version of your "project fear"............

MERKEL CRISIS: Germany facing RECESSION risk ahead of crunch growth figures

GERMANY is bracing itself for a slide into recession ahead of Thursdays release

of vital economy growth figures, which could heap more pressure on Chancellor

Angela Merkel.


The countries Federal Statistics Office will publish the Gross Domestic Product

(GDP) numbers for the final quarter of 2018. This will answer the vital question

of whether the EUs biggest economy at £3.1trillion has just barely managed growth

or has recorded a decline for the second successive quarter. Germanys economy

shrunk 0.2 percent in the third quarter of last year, largely due to slumps in the

lucrative car sector, not helped by growing trade tensions between the US and

China.


Last week, Deutsche Bank - Germanys biggest lender - warned the countries economy

is dangerously close to sliding into recession, describing the start of 2019 as

a major disappointment.

Germanys biggest lender expects the economy to contract further during the

quarter, with new business surveys pointing towards souring moods at companies and

worsening expectations for new orders.

Economists, including Sebastian Becker, wrote in the report: The start of the

German economy into 2019 has been a major disappointment so far.

Tyg - I asked how old the teacher was because if they are young, they will not be very well off; where ever they live. If they reach middle management and contribute 35-40 years to pension they would have done quite well. Headteachers do very well. Teachers used to be able to retire between 55-60. Now it is 60-65. There is a deduction from pension for every year early they retire. Pension contributions are 7-11% of salary, depending on how far you have progressed. Not cheap, I would say.

Ace - see above. Plus, there is one rate of pay for teachers in London and another for outside. The figure I quoted for starting salary is £23.7k for all teachers outside of London, it is not an average.

I didn't expect much sympathy for teachers on here. Or indeed, any public sector workers. All of whom suffered disproportionately under austerity/ financial crisis. And very few of which were to blame for it.

The undemocratic few in Independent Labour

By JOHNREDWOOD | Published: FEBRUARY 22, 2019

The MPs that are defecting to the Independent group do not get on well with democracy. They all dislike the result of the People’s vote in 2016. They now wish to change their views on big issues, compared to the Labour and Conservative Manifesto platforms they stood on in 2017. If they are keen on democracy and a People’s vote, they should offer themselves for election in a series of by elections soon.

An MP who changes party allegiance is not obliged to resign to create a by election. Indeed, if an MP resigns from his or her party to be independent because he or she thinks their party is failing to carry out promises they jointly made at the last election there is not even a moral pressure to hold a by election. But if an MP wishes to change party, or to be a so called independent on a very different platform to the one they stood on for their original party, there is plenty of moral pressure to ask the electors their view.

When Douglas Carswell and Mark Reckless decided the Conservatives were not Eurosceptic enough they resigned to join UKIP. They did the decent thing, stood in by elections and won. It did not work out well for them personally, on the assumption they would have liked to carry on in Parliament. Mark lost his seat in the following General election, whilst Douglas ended up in substantial disagreement with the Leader of UKIP and also ceased to be an MP.

The media seem to think the Independent group will morph into a new party. As it does so there will be more pressure on its members to answer why they do not submit themselves to an electoral test of what they are doing. This is particularly apposite given the belief of many of them that the public should be offered another vote on the issue of the EU. Wasn’t the 2017 General election another vote on the EU? I remember the election being dominated by the Brexit issue. 82% of the public voted for the two main parties who both said they would implement the result of the referendum. The Lib Dems made the case for a second referendum and slumped to 10% support.

I would be interested in what name you think would be most appropriate for this new grouping? Would it be unkind to suggest the We know better than the voters party, or perhaps the Not the Labour party.

The four EU member states most affected by Brexit are Ireland, Netherlands, Belgium, and Germany.


………;……̷0;……R30;…that is most interesting. I would have thought it was the UK.

Do you offer investment advice too?

Another British company taken over by these pesky foreigners.

Yes, let's "take our country back" hee, hee, hee.



In other news it's great to see the Jewish people supporting Jeremy Corbyn and acknowledging that he and Labour are NOT the problem despite the rantings of some right wing infiltrators.

The four EU member states most affected by Brexit are Ireland, Netherlands, Belgium, and Germany. These countries export significantly more to the UK than they import from the UK, and Brexit would significantly increase the cost of trade between the UK and these countries. For Ireland, the re-introduction of the customs border would impose new costs and lost time to cross-border transactions. The Netherlands is the UK's second largest trading partner in terms of both volume and proportion of imports and exports. The UK is the most popular destination for Dutch investors, and the Netherlands is the second most popular destination for British investors. For Belgium, a large portion of its imports and exports are dependent on the UK. And lastly, Germany is the largest trading nation in the EU in terms of volume; Brexit would remove much of the benefits of the European Single Market for the Germany economy, especially for the automotive industry.
