Why would credit ratings of EU members drop and hurt them more? Which EU members are more like to default (they can't due to mechanisms in place), may want to back this point up. Sounds like it's pulled from your backside.
Clearly people did think the money would go on the NHS. Also, it's not even £350m.
Fingers crossed.This whole fudge up has got all the hallmarks of a truly British:-
Project Meh.
Those charged with seeing this through are going to end up compromising the arse out of every decision.
The 'wins' will end up as ambiguous as the 'loses'.
We'll end up with negligible changes, while the extremes on both side will scream that 'this is not what I voted for'.
How much would a new base, that realistically could only be built on the Cumbrian coast, as the warheads can't be stored in a populated area, plus the submarines need a deep water port, so dredging would be needed, cost on top of renewal?
Yes, she's an MSP, Leader of the largest political party in Scotland and First Minister of Scotland.
. Surprised that the £350 m for the NHS has been shamelessly abandoned after 24 hours... But hey... That's politic.
Yesterday I did, momentarily, try to find how much Brexit Wales gets from the EU, thinking they have to have been turkey's voting for Christmas:-I still feel sad that we did not properly try to lead in Europe and explain the benefits of membership. Lots of little perks from being in Europe are going to dry up now.

Through the EU Structural Funds, Wales has benefited from just over £4bn since 2000, supporting business, research and innovation, helping people into work, increasing skills, improving transport and digital networks, regenerating our communities, and enhancing our environment.
Since 2007, EU projects have created 11,925 enterprises and 36,970 (gross) jobs, assisted 72,700 people into work, 229,110 to gain qualifications, and 56,055 into further learning.
You'd think a population of 3+m would have noticed a £4bn spend over 16 years, and be grateful.
And which of those posts gives her any power to call another Scottish referendum?
Or maybe they realised the UK funds that, and will continue to fund that without the middle man taking a cut?
I have no idea. I'm not an expert because people in this country have had enough of experts.
I hate experts, going around knowing stuff about stuff. What sort of way is that to run a country. I will stick to blind faith and gut feeling thank you very much.
Was that right Rupert??
You mention exports but for some strange reason fail to mention that imports become more expensive that fuel costs rise.
Also for thw FTSE how many financial shares finished at 12 month lows yesterday.
Beware the one eyed monster
Project Fear, Project Reality, Project Fear and Fantasy, Project Hate.
It seems everyone loves a Project.
Two questions for you:
So you are saying that in the next 15 years Wales will get more than 4bn from the UK?
Do you have any evidence to back up your claim that the UK have given Wales more than 4bn in the last 15 years?
i only mentioned exports because such a significant point has been made of them for so long. are we supposed to be encouraging imports now? lots of financials hit lows, but most have plumped levels around this in the past year. my whole point is about avoiding the one sided "its all doom" view, buying opportunity for the banks and housbuilders imo, the fundementals havent changed.
This is incredible
