UTT: You will never hear the BBC talk the country up now that we're leaving. Won't do, can't do, not in their DNA to be patriotic...all they've been interested in is talking up remain.

Soon after the referendum, remainers tried to suggest that it didn't mean leaving the single market or the customs union, when that was squashed it was all about us needing a deal despite May's no deal is better than a bad deal, which was all the EU was ever going to offer. Now Boris is in a strong position and we're leaving on Friday in theory, the debate has shifted to whether or not we're diverging from EU rules and regulations or staying aligned. A not very subtle attempt by the remainers to keep us tied to the EU and scupper our free trade deal potential.

Brexiteers must be vigilant as the remainers will never give up. A few months down the line there will be more ploys and in time doubtless there will be attempts to get us to re-join even if the EU unravels. Remainers won't be able to stomach an independent successful UK even if they were able to recognise it as such.

£25,600 paid to UK external recruits will no doubt screw hard working public sector workers how will they live in London on that amount ? and workers up north will have to take a pay cut to compete ..

Chard I know it's difficult for you to comprehend but everyone except yourself (obviously) now recognises that the domestic battle has been comprehensively won by leave, what I'm saying is that the next phase 'the battle for europe' might be helped by broadcasters who have a platform in the EU.

Skilled migrants from outside the EU currently need to have a job offer with a minimum salary of £30,000.

But the Migration Advisory Committee (MAC) said it should fall to £25,600 for all workers to help recruit teachers and skilled NHS staff.


And, just as I predict.....


They are going to have to lower it even further in the future in all likelihood.


Gammons will learn their lesson.

" BBC world service for instance might be critical in tipping the balance in our favour."

Eh?

What are you on?

LOL

Good post 1carus, Cummings has managed to out flank the Remain despite them having the full support of the BBC. Let's hope the BBC can find it within themselves to support Johnson and the UK at this critical next stage where positive spin from the BBC world service for instance might be critical in tipping the balance in our favour.

[minerve 2] 28/1/2020 13:02

I have absolutely no idea.

Sorry Min, accidentally submitted that twice --- I was somewhat expecting a comment but not a couple of re-posts -- or is the site just playing up?

“Shop manager David Pearce, whose family were coal miners and traditional Labour voters, added: “People are just glad it’s over.”

Dave, mate, not sure how to break it to you, but it isn’t over. There will be years and years of uncertainty and trying to replicate/replace what was already sorted. It may not have felt like much, but let’s see how you feel about it in a couple of years once the factories have closed down. Putting your trust in Unwise Johnson is the fool following the clown. Pity.

Sorry to disappoint you David but it ain't over. In fact the job losses and spending cuts are just about to begin.

I think the EU are going to get told by 'The Industries of Europe' to back down. It is not in anybody's interest to force the UK towards WTO. Way too much at stake. Plus despite despising the EU the brexiteers have no issue between fair commerce between UK and Europe. Just not the underhand way the self elected corrupt idiots in the EU want to play it. All Boris has to do is see what their opener is, of course it will be one sided, but all he has to do is chip away at the bricks in the wall that are sensitive to certain countries or threaten to walk away -- you know that thing that remoaners tried to take off the table... that will cause dis-harmony and fighting from within. Hopefully other nations will see what an Animal Farm the EU has become. I like a good game of Brinkmanship .... Boris was looking down and out and being ridiculed by the plebs that hijacked democracy.... now who's laughing!

Oh what a sad loss, my heart bleeds!

No 1 for world inward investment ...by a mile...1300 plus european firms moving to London

nothing finely balanced at all. It is simply that the childish analysts are told to show both views regardless of reality.

This is why there will be a negative bias for some time yet.

It does not really matter what he has or has not achieved gnr. Look at him now. What else do you need to know.
