If that's the way you feel, I would strongly advocate voting for Baron Von Thunderclap - if enough people feel like you it will save his deposit. Saving him his deposit would at least in a small way be a positive outcome.
By a lot of people as I remember. In fact, pretty nearly everyone except a few divs who seemed to have trouble with words like 'international' and 'banking', let alone more difficult phrases like 'sub-prime'.
I'm sure some of them, if you'd told them that Freddy Mac and Fanny May were dangerous...
Indeed. But one little thought niggles at the back of my mind - if anyone was planning to vote BNP, would they actually come out and say so on NSC? We know the polls over the years have been distorted by the presence of 'shy tories'. If people are shy about voting Tory, how much more likely are...
I'd given up on this thread for tonight (see post #5874) but I have to respond to that - what you've just spouted is rubbish. House prices rocketed in the 80s, long before Blair got in. 250% rise from 1981 to 1990. I know, because I bought and sold on those dates - and it wasn't a council house...
Bloody hell! Much drink has been taken on board tonight, methinks! Blame and invective spiralling to a crescendo from both sides, increasingly vitriolic - and pointless. I suppose it's a good job this is a message board, not a pub, otherwise I'm sure that come closing time (which must be soon...
If you start on housing, neither side comes out of it very well. The Tories flogged off the council house stock on the cheap, didn't they. The happy purchasers then flogged them on at a huge profit, then every other house-seller expected to do the same. Whoosh went the prices.
No reason why it shouldn't.
Yes, up to five years for new incoming immigrants; nothing to do with existing EU nationals in the UK. Keeping the existing arrangements for people already in situ is actually very simple indeed. It's only anti-Brexiteers who want to make it more complicated; some...
Us making a very reasonable and sensible suggestion that would relieve the fears of thousands of EU citizens sounds like an offer, not a demand. Now, demanding a goodness knows how many £Billion payment to leave before negotiations proper can begin - now that is a demand.........

There are arrangements in place for healthcare. Retaining existing conditions for UK ex-pats and EU migrants in the UK can include the healthcare arrangements. Very straightforward indeed, except for Merkel and Tusk refusing to accept a reasonable offer.
