    The EU: In, out, shake it all about....

    Google Farage and you will see his interviews.. he has major airtime. Incredible for a non MP. His latest quotes about Tommy Robinson being made UKIP advisor got him more time. You may have heard of Tommy? I don’t know how you can avoid Farage. His leave means leave meeting got as much if not...

    The EU: In, out, shake it all about....

    Yea, me too. I try to sell or buy British products where I can. My LR Discovery will be built in Slovakia in the future and my Newcastle Brown Ale barrels now come from Holland, and my Strongbow Cider comes from Belgium, but I am told I don’t know what is going on because I don’t live in...

    The EU: In, out, shake it all about....

    A huge part of our income comes from the City where people can play with their money in relative safety, including people with dirty money of tax evaders. London having a reputation for that. So if you are using words such as „offenders“, please balance what you are saying with our financial...

    No They get assistance until their economy reaches a certain point. I said „membership fee“ because of the constant analogies to a „club“. It makes it easier for some people to understand. The net „fee“ was 8,1 bn from 814 bn total according to ONS. About 1%. You called it untold billions or...

    The EU: In, out, shake it all about....

    You mean people like you are in the minority? Maybe that’s why you deny that Farage is in the news and pretend that the answer to any fact based link is that there must be a pro Brexit one, but you cannot be bothered to find it. Just say things to the contrary of reported fact and that makes...

    The EU: In, out, shake it all about....

    Farage is on TV all the time. Over 30 times on QT. Millions of views on YouTube. On Twitter. On the Radio. On US TV. Articles in most papers. The Express in particular. And you claim not to notice him. Talk about playing with facts. Fish is more complex than you claim. There are constant...

    I don’t. I didn’t say I did, but I presume that the CBI employed some methodology as they will have published a report to back the figures up. Can’t be too difficult to google, but just say something against it because it doesn’t fit your view.... as with the fish, as with infrastructure being...

    The EU: In, out, shake it all about....

    Yes. Everyone is biased. All the so-called experts, the foreign press, the government’s own impact statements, the BoE, the haulier industry, the customs officials, the civil service, the port authorities etc... all of them remainers just trying to belittle the Brexit that honourable people like...

    The EU: In, out, shake it all about....

    How do you know how that was calculated? Maybe it was allowing for reduced trade because of higher tariffs or the cost of the extra bureaucracy required. Hard to say just looking at the answer without seeing the workings.

    I don’t think he cares and I am not sure if he is even working for the UK. He was hardly at the Brexit negotiations and he was straight over to the US agricultural ministry and giving talks to the Heritage Foundation. Obviously more important than Brexit negotiations.

    The EU: In, out, shake it all about....

    They actually referred to the UK as a proud nation. The fact that the UK is dragging itself down has nothing to do with you comparing modern Germany with hard right Germany of the past.

    The EU: In, out, shake it all about....

    Yes, they mention Bremerhaven here in Germany as being the most likely to benefit. I have bought Der Spiegel magazine today. Front page: Under the party finance scandal of the AfD ( illegal anonymous party donations from billionaires .... sound familiar? Brexit campaign? ), Great Britain -...

    The EU: In, out, shake it all about....

    Yes,that’s her, one of several people pointing out who owns the quotas, the concerns of food processing firms and the importance of tariff free salmon exports, not to mention the movement of fish owing to climate change. But, deny it if you want and see what happens when it comes to negotiations.

    The EU: In, out, shake it all about....

    I didn’t know that we weren’t allowed to catch fish for our markets and were forced to sell 70 to 80% to the EU. I doubt whether it’s that simple. Here’s an article that explains the complexities, including the fact that some of our fishermen sold their quotas to a handful of big companies and...

    The EU: In, out, shake it all about....

    If the UK GDP drops as a result of Brexit as most predict, do you think the government will support the regions more? The EU does try and support the regions that are struggling. You can argue that some projects are not effective enough, but there is no guarantee that the UK government will...

    The EU: In, out, shake it all about....

    When did you last succeed in that?Your last clip proved that our fishing depended on selling 70% of the catch to the EU. You then didn’t answer my question as to how much of UK GDP the fishing industry represented. You didn’t comment on my point about the uncertainty that Brexit was causing the...

    The EU: In, out, shake it all about....

    Whether I live in the UK or not, ordinary people outside of the wealthier parts have been left behind. Nothing to do with me living in Germany, France or England. I am well aware of what is going on in the UK, even if I don’t live there. I watch UK TV and read UK newspapers and I visit the UK.

    The EU: In, out, shake it all about....

    They may be right that they haven’t benefited. But, they got the reason wrong. The UK is London and the South East, and then the rest. A large part of the rest has been left behind- as confirmed by the latest UN report. They are therefore right to protest, but leaving the EU won’t change that...
