1: The net contribution to the EU budget is £21 million a day, out of a daily UK government spend of £1,900 million a day. 2: What do you mean by ratification of the EU budget? 3: I can't vote out an MP from Scotland, Norfolk, Birmingham or Newcastle either, so what? 4:There is corruption in...

1: We don't pay £50million a day 2: The balance of trade is determined by 'us' as consumers, who choose not to buy goods manufactured in this country. It has nothing to do with the EU or UKIP. People like cunning fergus Buzzer and I don't agree on certain matters, although we do have a lot of...

Previously there had been statues of Hitler and Stalin in that square. I think it was acknowledgement of De Gaulle's involvement in resisting the Nazi's during WW2.

I thought it was because we bathed more than once a month.

I think that it's been successful as a free trade organisation, and like that it has stood up to globalisation and monopoly abuse from the likes of Microsoft and the US government. What I don't like is careerist politicians and bureaucrats who have tried to extend the powers of the EU beyond...

A further paradox is that if the EU is a failed institution, why do the economic models suggest that GDP and jobs would be higher if we remain in it?

Sorry Bushy I meant the North Stand!

I'm in the North! Would be good to meet up at last.

I accept that, but if there were fewer migrants these unscrupulous employers would employ indigenous individuals to the same effect. My son is 20, has physical and non-physical health problems, and was recently offered a job, which after deducting a 'on job training fee' paid 58 pence an hour...

You watch ITV2 as well do you bushy ? I bet you're as addicted to Real Hollywood Wives as I am. Having a snifter after the game tonight?

I agree entirely Lord B. Higher education, indeed all education, is an investment and the country as a whole benefits from a broader skill base, higher tax revenues and greater life expectancy.

I can assure you my employer is scrupulously fair in assessing international students in terms of their entry qualifications, as our courses are too complex for people with a poor educational background. Private sector colleges, which have been encouraged by the present government, are only...

For every £1 a student pays in fees they pay another £2 to the economy overall, so UKIP's policy is immediately costing about £4.5 billion a year in lost GDP. How will they ensure that people such as myself won't lose jobs as a result?

There are 125,000 EU and 300,000 non-EU students in UK higher education, out of a total student population of 2.3 million.

Foreign students and humanities students subsidise STEM students here in the UK, as foreign students pay an average of £15,000 a year and it costs far more than £9,000 a year to train a doctor, dentist or scientist, so you are incorrect.

I work in higher education, an industry which has a global reputation for a high quality service, and is one of the biggest exporters in the country, contributing £14bn a year to the economy. UKIP's policies would wipe out most of this benefit by preventing/discouraging overseas students from...

I quite like Farange, at least he's admitted that he's happy for lower economic growth, higher unemployment and higher prices as a result of EU withdrawal. If voters are also happy worth this then they shouldn't be condemned for voting UKIP.

I work all over the EU, does that mean I'm stealing the jobs of Poles, Germans, Cypriots and the French?

Given that there is minimum wage legislation, how can the Poles and Lithuanians work for less than the locals?
