The rest of the EU don't appear to want to wait around. The way the exit procedure works we're not really in the driving seat here, the EU can apply a lot of pressure in terms of the negotiations to push the UK to a swift exit.

I'm starting to have my doubts. We could really have done with one side or the other having a decisive victory. With it being so close and not a unanimous result across the four countries of the UK it seems to have brought about a situation that wasn't really considered, or at least the...

The vote might be done but I fear the turmoil now will not just be over how and when we exit the EU. Sturgeon has already said the SNP could block the UK leaving the EU, there's pressure mounting in Northern Island for similar. You've also got Scotland and NI potentially leaving the UK, or at...

Few years old now but if anything prices have gone down since this was produced. Edit: Seems that prices have indeed fallen since the above quote was written.

Indeed, and that's a big part of the 'problem'. Corbyn has already said he would stand for leader again so what is this coup going to achieve? There will be months of Labour infighting when they should be taking advantage of a leaderless Conservative party and then after all that Corbyn will be...

As poor as the management of the Ricoh was under CCC and Higgs ownership the one shining light was the praise the staff on the ground received, even winning awards for being the best in the country. That all seems to have changed. Had a tweet last night on my timeline talking about fights at...

The whole process of leaving the EU is designed to put the power in the hands of the EU and not the leaving country. We aren't in the driving seat here and its going to take some tough negotiating from Johnson and Gove.

Indeed but that is now irrelevant as we're leaving the EU. What I would like to know now is how we are going to achieve a significant reduction in EU migration.

Never underestimate the ability of people to shoot themselves in the foot. As much as Germany may rely on us that reliance may be exceeded by their desire to protect the EU and punish the UK for our decision.

So you've voted for something having no idea what the result of that vote will be? That's exactly what put me off voting leave, there appeared to be no plan as to what would happen next.

Lets hope he's right. Doesn't matter if you agree with the result or not we now need to be working to ensure we get the best deal possible and the best outcome is to get a better deal than we had before. Did she drill down on that? I assume she wasn't saying there would be changes to non-EU...

You might have to change that to the past tense! Will it not be a negative impact on your business if trade restrictions and tariffs are now put in place?

Democracy is only 0.2% of the population getting to vote on who the PM is? What exactly does it mean to say its democracy anyway? There's numerous voting systems, very few countries now use FPTP as it is considered to disenfranchise many voters who feel, correctly in my opinion, their vote...

I remember him being interview on Late Kick Off and he claimed he was promised a certain amount of money in each transfer window that never materialised. Putting the blame squarely on the owners of the club. That said I would guess he had the biggest budget of any manager under SISU and some of...

You've quoted the Telegraph quoting the mail who were quoting his speech at the LSE and cherry picked. If you look at the whole speech you will find he was saying the Euro should be dismantled if the EU weren't prepared to undertake the reforms required to boost investor confidence in it as a...

I presume you are referring to when he said the high level of refugees entering Europe following so soon after the crash could destabilise Europe in the short term. Are you suggesting that as a result of leaving the EU we will now refuse to take non-EU refugees? How is that going to work in...

He's the macroeconomics guy isn't he? Opponent of austerity who thinks the Euro needs to be reformed and possibly split into two regions along with more control passing to the ECB.

An economist who was given the Nobel Prize for Economic Science in 2015 for his work on consumption, poverty and welfare.

Indeed, 24.8% against 26.7%. Very close, comes down to 1.9% of the population.

Is Ruth Lea better informed on this subject than the likes of George Akerlof, Christopher Pissarides, Peter Diamond, Eric Maskin, Kenneth Arrow, Jean Tirol, Angus Deaton, James Heckman, James Mirrlees & Robert Solow?
