On the subject of medical care 4,000 EU pensioners riding the NHS in the UK, 144,000 riding the Spanish health care system on the Costas. All the talk of health tourism shows it cuts both ways

Don't know why you runners-up keep on carping on about this.We will see how much of a drain on the Spanish economy the British portion of the Costa pensioners are when the negotiations start.If the Spanish ask for them all to be re-patriated,then we will bow to your wisdom.If they don't,will you admit to being a whinger?

I assumed he was just measuring the percentage of eligible voters who voted Leave.

I suppose there's a chance your vastly more complicated suggestion could be right though. Let's wait and see.

No no, he actually stated 'Theresa May is now aggressively pursuing a course of action that about 19% of the UK actually want', by that he is disqualifying each and every eligible voter that didnt vote as not wanting to vote leave and align themselves to Theresa May, even as a kindred spirit you dont want to use that particular statistic to back up your views, surely.

No it doesnt, although I accept it might be down to the absurd ineptitude of our departments to at least try and retrieve fee's, but we give to the EU £670m for healthcare abroad whilst claiming back just £50m from other EU countries even though there are significantly more EU citizens living in the UK than UK citizens living in the EU.

Nope. Not when everyone is factored in.

"everyone" is 46500001 registered voters, so the out vote was 37.4 if you want to count non-voters, which frankly you shouldn't. need to be 91m odd voters for your 19% to be valid.

Do you think you can define 'Eaton' and 'bufoon' then?

Eton College is an English independent boarding school for boys in Eton, Berkshire, near Windsor. It educates more than 1,300 pupils, aged 13 to 18 years. It was founded in 1440 by King Henry VI as "The King's College of Our Lady of Eton besides Wyndsor", making it the 18th oldest Headmasters' and Headmistresses' Conference (HMC) school.

Definition of buffoon: 1. a ludicrous figure, clown. 2. a gross and usually ill-educated or stupid person, acting like a ridiculous buffoon.

So do you think Johnson is fit for purpose?

You really don't get it, do you? I asked you about Eaton, not Eton. I know about Eton. I also asked you to define bufoon - you don't seem to have an answer for that either.

None of your business, and the question is of no interest to me anyway. I never made any comment about Johnson, so why you should think it appropriate to ask me for my opinion of him is beyond comprehension.
