And you are stuck in a 40+ year old time warp.

Four years ago or not, it is still valid.

You are using maths from around 6th century BC are you not?

Referendum result is 4 years old and you old farts are still stuck in the Little Englander time warp.

How is it going by-the-way?

LOL!

Time for Boris to show his true colours.

One of the reasons we are rich country is because have been the World's leading financial centre for centuries.

I do hope they strike a Brexit deal similar to the one that currently exists on finance.
The ultimate quid quo pro.

'you can catch our fish..we look after your money'.
..done, a tiny earner versus a huge one.

Boris is not that stupid, he will do a deal.Sad for the fish lobby.

Fk me the amount of immigrants Blair carried over the threshold youd expect to be able to buy a 70" telly for 20 quid.

Thanks for not providing the stats.

So we don't know how successful Trump has been in repatriating jobs. My opinion is: not very successful.

You were saying Trump was getting things done:

What else has he done?

Did you notice the recent offer by the Chinese to build HS2 at half the cost and half the timescale.

They really know how to do these things and have a track record of delivering.

We know our own construction companies will be years late at billions over budget.

We tell them to go away, but for how much longer can we retain a much higher standard of living than the Chinese or Indians?

'rather pay more for quality than less for dross from China.'
I think the problem is more serious than that.

'rather pay less for quality from China than more for dross from elsewhere'.

That is the heart of the problem.
We are being undercut by lower paid hard working Chinese who produce top quality goods.

There is no 'level plying field' on workers rights, the environment, subsidies in China so we cannot compete.
(The basis of our current argument with the EU.)
