Depends what period you measure it over. Over the whole of the 1940’s it was 16% as an average. That number of course fluctuated during the decade. At points it was higher and over 25% and at other points it was lower.

I note that you have ignored the multiple links I’ve posted for your benefit. Romania has an average family size of 2.7 per children per household which is currently also the same for Ireland currently. In Ireland for the period being discussed the average was nearer 4 per household.

No it isn’t. The discussion is about economic migration from Ireland. Astute is in denial that it ever happened despite it being a massive part of Irish history and indeed Irish culture over the last 100 years.

Irish families especially Catholic families are traditionally large, do you really need telling that. My mum was one of twelve. My mums youngest sibling and eldest niece were classmates and best friends at school and my gran still went on to have two more babies who were unfortunately still born.

Link up to population not emigration. There’s a very distinct difference.

Never used it myself but a couple of friends did and both had the issue of leaving from Coventry but on the return journey found out at the last moment that they would be returning to East Midlands instead as the return flight had been cancelled to Coventry. Seem to remember this happening a lot...

There’s a vegan thing happening at Ryton connection today I’ve just been informed if anyone is interested. On a separate note we tried Brooklyn Piza at Elliot’s Field in Rugby the other week and they were very good. They do a vegan cheese, garlic bread etc and when my wife was asking if...

I think you’re getting fixated on the wording EU VAT and thinking that this is an EU problem. It’s just VAT, it isn’t disappearing the moment we leave and given that the government could cut VAT now as a member state of the EU and choose not to is a pretty good indicator that it won’t even go...

You put a link up to population from the 1960’s onwards, I’ve already told you that the peak was the 1940’s into the 50’s so you’ve proved nothing. It’s also a graph of population. Its not an indicator of emigration or birth rates, in a country where they’ve traditionally bred like rabbits...

Go and read anything about Eamon De Valera and you will read all about mass emigration from Ireland under his rule. Go and read anything about the Anglo-Irish trade war and you will read all about the legacy of emigration caused by it (ironically it happened because of the divorce bill of Irish...

Auto correct. Your link tells you exactly what I’ve just told you. The fraud is happening within transactions in the U.K. it’s not happening in the transaction between France and the U.K. where it confirms no VAT is charged and it’s not happening in the transaction between the U.K. and Germany...

You don’t charge or pay VAT on goods traveling from within the EU so I’m not sure how you work that one out. A manifesto also isn’t an invoice. There are no values on a manifesto.

At times it was higher. It depends on what periods you look at. It happened over decades and as I’ve already told you the peak was in the 40’s and early 50’s. Like I said, go and educate yourself, you sorely need it. It was actually said that there was a comparison, which there is. Even Grendull...

No I never. I agreed with someone else when they stated quite correctly that there was mass economical migration from Ireland. You put two and two together and came up with potato famine which was 100 years out. Sickboy was clearly talking about Ireland under De Valera when people left in their...

What was false about my reply? What proof have you shown? What didn’t exist? Answer those three very simple questions and I’ll see if I can help you out.

It is a good reply. I answered your questions for a start which is more than you have, that’s how you have a debate. I’m interested in all news for the U.K. it’s hardly my fault that it’s all pretty much bad news. Ironically the few good news stories from brexit there has been have all been...

Minister Jo Johnson quits over Brexit

What dispute(s) have they been in? Except the Irish border issue. They kissed and made up last time after TM backtracked. The DUP’s gripe this time is that she’s backtracking on the backtrack. Considering that I live in the U.K. it’s not strange at all. You might enjoy the distraction of...

I said the honeymoon not the marriage.
