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

    I'm aware of the irony of reviving this thread with what I'm about to write... I'm getting a bit fed up now on my FB page with some friends sharing memes and articles supporting their opinions on the referendum 3 or 4 times a day. I'm aware of what you think; I figured that out after the first...

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

    I'm happy to discuss this. Let's start with trade with the EU. We can still trade with the EU - but there would be a 10% import tariff (which would also be levied on goods imported from the EU). For sure, imports would reduce but the tariff would still result in revenue for the country. If...

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

    Certainly agree with this about all voting. Many become 'fans' of one side or another and repeat the rhetoric and veneer-thin arguments of their party. This includes the politicians themselves; I recall the first time I heard one discussing a matter that I know much about and realising that...

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

    I don't recall Cameron ever being pro-leave - and certainly not in the last few months. He postured and threatened that the UK might leave before his negotiations - is that what you meant?

    Euro 2016 big thread

    I thought he played better than I've seen him for a long time. However his second shot was also very close to the keeper. If he'd put it even within a foot of the corner the keeper would have had no chance. Playing in midfield is no excuse for those two shots.

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

    The EU is not a dictatorship because more than one person controls it. It's also benign. However it's not a democracy either. I think the EU is something we've never seen before: an attempt at combining socialist and capitalist philosophies together. It is working for a wider distribution of...

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

    Immigrants are not to blame for anything. Each one is exercising their right to travel in the world and work wherever they want. There may be some bad people who immigrate here but there are bad people everywhere. England made Peter Sutcliffe & Fred West. What is a problem however is...

    Rooney Rule

    I thought the Rooney Rule was that you always had to pick at least one player for the England side on his performance from years ago rather than current ability.

    Leon Clarke!

    The article seems to rule it out. 1) They already turned down two offers of cash 2) The only way we could afford him is if Bury paid off his contract and we took him on a free. How's that going to happen then? Are Bury stupid?
