Brexit, by Deleted on Feb 18, 2019 21:19:27 GMT 1, I always thought most of the world's issues were down to a few greedy people that need more war/land/oil/resources etc..... not those that think the world would be better with less barriers and removing 'Us and them' mentalities. Sometimes I wish my worldview could be this simplistic. so do many on here !

Brexit, by Deleted on Feb 18, 2019 21:22:15 GMT 1, 6% is that it? We'll do that easily with all the investment we are putting into the country. Come on You Tories!! 6% give or take to replace with domestic demand. But stable per year for the next 10-15 year (so that one can slowly downsize). Reality check: in the last 50 years UK had growth above 6% only 3 times...
May will do it for us!
Dont worry!
You have to believe! If you believe then it will come true. Honest

My reply, WAITROSE! She's hardly poor mum.

Brexit, by cogitobcn on Feb 19, 2019 8:17:39 GMT 1, I heard that, has to be an android phone that's less than 2 years old with nfc (whatever that is). I think charging £65, and taking fingerprints and photos just felt like yet another kick in the proverbials.
In order to clarify some false rummors: 1. Can't be done with apple phones because the company doesn't allow 3rd developers to fiddle with iPhone hardware directly. 2. Android phones are more economical than iPhones, and I could do the process with one cheap Huawei 5 years old. 3. I know that British are too used to posh iPhones, but prioritizing the Android open technology is one of the few thing they did right.

Brexit, by moron on Feb 22, 2019 16:18:20 GMT 1, The World is full of an amazing diversity of people with very different cultures and beliefs, and the idea of continually trying to join countries together and making societies governance more distant is crazy. Surely full respect for individuals, communities, religions, countries, is best done as locally as possible to retain diversity. Much of the Worlds problems are being created by cultures going around judging other cultures and trying to make everything uniform, rather than enjoying and understanding the diversity. I always thought most of the world's issues were down to a few greedy people that need more war/land/oil/resources etc..... not those that think the world would be better with less barriers and removing 'Us and them' mentalities. Which issues?

Brexit, by moron on Feb 22, 2019 16:28:19 GMT 1, May has negotitaited and dealt with Brexit so farcically that businesses and people have no idea where they will stand after Brexit.
Corbyn has screwed up too and no MP's are leaving the Corbyn Momentum Labour party in droves. Corbyn doesn't realise that it's all down to his duplicity and stupidity, turning the Labour party into the Marxist party.
Terry Christian had a good idea. When the time comes that British companies start to lay people off, they should lay off the people who voted for Brexit first.
I'm sure Britain will pull through.
Latest advice from the British government.
It's all a bit "Passport to Pimlico"

Ah Dyson the brexiteer, what a wanker.
Still he is doing good job buying up land
whoownsengland.org/2017/09/19/why-is-james-dyson-hoovering-up-land/
Lastly, various commentators suggest that Dyson’s investment in land is a good way to avoid inheritance tax. Lancaster Guardian columnist Gary Rycroft opines that “what Sir James is doing is buying up a very handy tax shelter.” The Evening Standard’s Home & Property section, reporting on one of Dyson’s purchases, commented: “The savvy move may mean that his three children could avoid a substantial chunk of inheritance tax, as it is not incurred on farmland.” Farmers’ Weekly, in an article on Dyson’s investments, has stated: “Buying farmland is popular with many wealthy investors because it doesn’t incur inheritance tax. Some critics feel this unfairly bumps up land values, pricing ‘genuine’ farmers out of the market”.
Viewed from this angle, it all starts to make sense. Dyson’s vast investments in prime farmland, his political support for hard Brexit and turning Britain into low-tax Singapore, all share a common aim: maximise income, minimise outgoings.
I find a number of things about James Dyson admirable. His farm business at least talks the talk of sustainability and in some ways appears to be practising it. He’s clearly committed to encouraging engineering talent and his support for renewable energy and battery technology is much-needed. But Dyson’s vision of post-Brexit Britain as a tax haven for the rich where taxpayer subsidies nevertheless still flow to big landowners? Now that really sucks.

I tried one of his vacs one. I found that the suction was not very good.

To be fair, Terry Christian has always been a cûnt whether he’s a remainer or a leaver. Nice to see how he looks down on the poor people who frequent Wetherspoons. One bonus about going into one is that you won’t bump in to him and that for me is a massive plus

More than my weekly pay i'd wager.

Not sure where you’re from but Wetherspoons are one of the cheapest pub chains in the UK.Don’t think Terry Christian has the right to call all people that go into one poor though.

Brexit, by Daylight Robber on Mar 2, 2019 13:31:54 GMT 1, On which he’s got a hefty tax rebate. But that’s good social marketing nevertheless. 5 million minus tax rebate is still a lot of money to give away.
He's campaigned for a Brexit that will make the country poorer by billions, whilst moving his money out of the country to protect it. People are losing their jobs because of him and his ilk. But it's alright because he made a donation he could easily afford. He's a wanker of the highest order.

Brexit, by Schrödinger's Chat on Mar 3, 2019 12:48:14 GMT 1, Some Sunday morning fun: www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2019/mar/03/why-did-the-bbc-let-andrew-neil-combust
I particularly enjoyed this section:
Those who tremble at the prospect of shortages of vital supplies just need to think of creative solutions. If each one of the veritable tide of illegal migrants currently swamping British beaches was required to bring with them some plasters and a courgette, we could soon compensate for a ferry service optimistically expected to operate at 8% of the projected required capacity.

I checked out reviews of his vacs and products and most say they are crap. Expensive crap at that.

I checked out reviews of his vacs and products and most say they are crap. Expensive crap at that. 1. Contrary to the rumours, you can't 'buy' a knighthood although the general population love to think you can. But even if you could, you don't buy a knighthood by donating money to an art charity.
2. I find it hard to see how one becomes a millionaire by producing a product that everybody thinks is crap. How would that work exactly?
