the istanbul peninsula has been the bridge to europe since people started wiping their arses with paper.....the istanbul peninsula will continue to be so until the bridges are collapsed , which might not be long the way things are going ...you can be as liberal and whiffy as you like but if it looks , smells , sounds , walks and talks like a turd.....the fact is , it's obviously a turd.
wtf...scratch head ...uh uh uh ....what da faarrk.
What was wrong with that comment? How many people who didn't vote Tory voted UKIP? I don't think they were anti-Tory given they got their second best result.

Interesting post but I can't see how it relates to the post you were responding to.

in light of recent weeks i think there is a very tenuous grasp on the concept of politics in mainstream england........don't worry though because the indians and pakistanis are all over it..

IMF has slashed its growth forecast for the UK for next year by 0.9% due to the EU result, and says it could darken further if process to leave is more painful than expected. - Sky News report
I now wait the deluge of stop being negative, its only a temporary blip, its worth it anyway - The facts speak for themselves

if you're putting all your eggs in the IMF basket then good luck to you. They've been wrong so many times it's not even a joke.

Theresa 'Brexit means Brexit' May is now saying article 50 won't be triggered this year:

I wonder how long it will be until it is triggered, by the time it is we should probably need to have another referendum as so much time will have passed!

Delaying tactic whilst the West Lothian (and just about the rest of Scawtland) question is sorted out. If it can be.

THE referendum thread (others will be merged with this)
The laughable comment was not meant as a slur on Scotland more sturgeon who keeps peddling this ridiculous notion that a partial Brexit is possible we can all see what she is trying to force an agenda that independence is the only answer for Scotland to get their wish to remain.
In regards to a deal for Scotland I am struggling to see the EU bending over backwards for anyone. They are already going to have to push back on the UK trade terms to fend off other member states from considering an exit. If they treated Scotland favourably imagine the uproar from other member states. Whilst some organisations may choose to relocate operations (although let's not underestimate the financial pull of London) I would expect Edinburgh to be on equal footing with Dublin or indeed other European cities.
Overall we are taking a huge step into the dark leaving the EU if Scotland leave the UK and pursue direct EU membership that is a almighty leap into a black hole and who knows what that looks like on the other side.

Leavers don't believe in economics as a general rule, sadly.

Think we will end up with another vote but not necessarily an IN / OUT decision, lets face it we aren't going to get what we want.
Thankfully we have you to put us on the right track because we did not realise that the price of leaving the EU superstate and it's rules and regs and cost would mean a bit of hardship at first.

Keep telling yourself that. I personally prefer not to pigeonhole people who disagree with me, is divisive and false and ultimately only serves one purpose-to make you feel more secure in your own opinions.
The denigration of the entire economics profession, which put its predictive power and usefulness on a par with circus fortune tellers, was a staple of the Leave campaign. They simply didn't care what the OECD, IMF, Treasury, LSE and the BoE had to say. It's just guess work yeah?
