    Second referendum : am I missing something ?

    That can’t be true. Anytime you say people didn’t know what they voted for they go ape shit.

    Second referendum : am I missing something ?

    Corrected that for you. Brexit fundamentalists is what I believe Vince Cable is going to describe them as later. Which made me smile anyway.

    Second referendum : am I missing something ?

    Technically it would be a third one, the second one the EU was in 2016. Strangely I didn’t see it as an insult to democracy as democracy is the mechanism that allows us to change our mind. Not allowing people to change their minds when there’s a will to do so is an insult to democracy. Stop...

    In which case we really should ignore the referendum. It wasn’t due until 2025 using that logic.

    When was the last time an elected government did what they pledged to do in an election. Plus an election is every 4 years unless a government is dumb enough to call an ill advised early election. If you’re going to compare apples compare them with apples. Unless of course you’re saying that we...

    I can’t decide what’s sadder. The fact that he does it in the first place or the fact that he feels the need to brag about doing it.

    I blame senior management taking their eyes off the ball because they’re spending too much time on Internet forums;)

    Is a new Goalkeeper a priority

    Good keeper at this level. Agree with the comments about needing competition and OB going in January and genuine competition coming in.

    Chaplin Disallowed Goal

    Can’t really tell either way from that camera angle but whether on or off side it was a close call. Took his shot well though which bodes well moving forward.

    IMF chief highlights recession risk of no-deal Brexit Probably another biased loony frenchy but the IMF has just warned of a no deal brexit. Not that a smooth Brexit is going to be a bed of roses either according to the IMF.

    The Icelandic action happened over three decades so was forseen. We were fishing there less and less from the 50’s from the three so called Cod wars all of which Iceland won after threatening to pull out of NATO. The Cod wars was also settled by the mid 70’s so to say it wasn’t taken into...

    Still doesn’t make Astute right. Also a fact. He talking sound bites from the leave campaign on fishing clearly without fact checking. The facts still don’t look good on the CFP but they’re a million miles away from what Astute has taken as gospel and ran with. You don’t need to repeat half...

    Like you say originally fishing quotas were set on what was being fished and by who in EU waters in the 70’s. That system is changing ie the quotas are now based on science rather than history and the mental process of discarding is being phased out. Although the change for my liking has...

    SBT Veggie Society

    You would think so but apparently not. I was told that Guinness isn’t vegan. Apparently animal product can be used during the brewing process. Probably a cheaper ingredient than something plant derived to do the same job. Economics prevents a lot of things that could be vegan from being vegan...

    Any post Brexit tax cuts will be corporate and for higher rate earners. There may be a token raising of the threshold for what you start paying tax from but that’s always been disproportionately set compared to things like the rising cost of living so in real terms won’t be a tax cut at all for...

    We’ve all been saying the same thing. All you have to do is reply to one of us with some facts and it’s game over. Fact is the U.K. fleet lost more water to the Cod wars than any other factor. Because of this 90% of all Cod eaten in the U.K. is imported from non-EU sources. The sovereign...

    Ha ha ha ha ha. It quotes facts, timelines and events. All of which you can fact check for yourself. It’s hardly an opinion piece.
