Shocker. David Cameron shows terrible dishonesty every time he opens his filthy lying fuccking mouth. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That will probably be the explanation but in reality there is no way to verify these numbers either way because nobody counts them in and then counts them out again. It's just guesswork. You would be as well going on anecdotal evidence like folk saying "There's an awfy lot of foreigners live doon ma street". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
exile Posted May 12, 2016 Share Posted May 12, 2016 Watching the news, where we are yet again being fed so much news of US internal politics. Yet we hardly hear anything at all on the European Parliament (or Commission, etc.). Here we are with an EU referendum almost upon us, and most people don't have an idea of how it actually works....

Agreed. It always appears, from what I hear down here, that England would rather be closer to the US than the rest of Europe, unfortunately.

I read that as an audience that was representative of UK opinion on the EU rather than Scottish opinion *but* it would be an audience of people who live in Scotland.

buckielugger Posted May 13, 2016 Share Posted May 13, 2016 Phone is fcked..can't type properly. ..leaflet is a manifestation of Cameron's continuing lies and lies and lies. I despise him totally Anyway a VOTE to leave will NOT result in UK ACTUALLY leaving. The government and the EU and the whole establishment will simply not allow it. Cameron can have Westminster parliament overrule any outcome of the referendum (as he could have done with Scotland if we had voted yes...) However a vote to leave will though cause plenty of chaos and that alone might make it worthwhile.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
girvanTA Posted May 14, 2016 Share Posted May 14, 2016 Its laughable with the amout of scaremongering going on from the remain camp. It reeks of the scottish referendum again. My question is what is the future of the eu within say the next 10 years? Turkey,bosnia and albania to join? If so the future within the eu is bleak Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bristolhibby Posted May 14, 2016 Share Posted May 14, 2016 Turkey will never be allowed to join the EU. Just sayin. Human rights abuse and the death penalty just to name a couple of reasons. Not to mention their economy and prous border. J Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most likely he's never been to Albania, Bosnia or Turkey to have an informed opinion on any of these countries or their credentials (or otherwise) for becoming Member States. More to the point, the amount of people on the thread who state they will vote leave because of the antics of the remain camp rather than after a considered view of the case for staying in is mind boggling. Are people really that suggestible? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The offensive statement was made by he who introduced Albanians, Bosnians and Turks to the thread when there had been no prior reference to them and therefore no need to refer to them.

thplinth Posted May 14, 2016 Share Posted May 14, 2016 Aye calling folk a racist for saying... "Turkey,bosnia and albania to join?
