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

    Thats great Astute but its just a copy and paste from the FT. What is it you personally don't agree with that is in the EU's position paper?

    So what is it you don't agree with? That the UK should fulfil the budgetary commitments its made or we should contribute our share on pensions?

    The EU's position is not for ongoing payments, they want a single payment to cover budget commitment, termination of membership of all institutions and already committed payments to specific funds. The basis for the calculation is Again what specifically in the EU's published position do you...

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

    Reading the EU's position paper what they are asking doesn't seem unreasonable. The difficultly is we haven't published our own so its hard to compare and obviously its dealing with things that none of us are experts on. Don't really have a problem with them not giving a fixed figure given the...

    Budget 2018

    I'm going to take a wild guess it means more money to Birmingham and nothing for us.

    Ralph Little rips Jeremy Hunt on Twitter

    Brilliantly he's tried to respond to little and his evidence is a piece in the New York Times conveniently ignoring the fact they've since published three corrections after the article was shown to be totally inaccurate!

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

    That's an issue with the screening process. The UK, or any other country, are perfectly entitled to put a screening process in place. As I said we started bombing people with no plan in place. There should have been reception camps for those displaced immediately over the border with the...

    They are refusing to accept refugees. The point you made was about migrants posing as refugees, they have no entitlement to stay in the UK or any other EU country. Its a problem we have created by bombing countries such as Syria with no plan on what to do with innocent civilians displaced by...

    Exactly. In work benefits have gone through the roof in recent years as people in employment aren't earning enough to live on. That's while large corporations take huge profits. When the living wage, which is actually just the minimum wage rebranded and well below what was calculated as the...

    Jones Injury

    I'd be tempted to rest Kelly this weekend, with the FA Cup game the following week you could give him over 2 weeks to let it heal. Would rather do that than have him playing when not fully fit and possibly making it worse.

    But again they are people we have a legitimate reason not to allow entry to the country now so leaving the EU will make no difference.

    Oh Jeremy Corbyn

    IMO the party should have got behind Corbyn and lined up a more 'media friendly' replacement. They were never going to win the last election, would have required a huge swing. They could have had someone waiting in the wings to take over who was to the left but without the baggage. Reckon...

    Match Thread Stevenage - Coventry City Match Thread - Tuesday 21st Nov

    Assuming he's out for the weekend its the FA Cup game after that so he's get over 2 weeks until the next game. With a bit of luck that will be enough. Can't afford him to be out for any length of time, we've hardly scored any goals he hasn't either scored or had an assist.
