Surely you mean "exit."

He did, but then changed his mind.

So Brig loves "Euro" and also "exit."

Done in a few months, good terms and no one wanting to steal our fish or interfere with the running of our country in return. Shows up the EU for what it is, a lumbering parasite. There will be many more like this. Project fear disproved yet again.

Why do you think it happened quickly?

Maybe it's because 80% of the £15 billion increase in trade will be on the Japan side.

It also allows more access to Car industr

... an it's got the word "eurwo" in it an ' I wuv anyfin' wiv "eurwo" in it. Innit.

Fillyboy was trying to make the case that the Euro is weak
I countered that claim.

I notice you didn't make any comment about Fillyboy use of the word Euro, only mine

Why is that?

That's £15bn worth of trade over how long a period?
How long?
Well, the answer is, "we don't know!".

African beggars have been on the Greek Islands (and other Med coastal resorts) for many decades.

Must have got lucky on my hols to Kos and Crete then. No swarthy invaders to spoil my view of the Med as I enjoyed my retsina at a local taverna.

You haven't had a £10 Hugo Boss watch with a lifetime guarantee offered to you then?

We'll, I suppose if you vote Leave yet want to Remain, you can tell yourself you're right (at least some of the time)

In the last 6 weeks, I can count on one hand the number of days, the port authority have come over to collect their dues. it takes them 10 minutes to complete the paperwork to charge me around 6 Euro. No wonder they can't be arsed. Nobody cares about collecting or paying taxes, but they all want their pensions. Even the church is state funded. As far as I can work out their only purpose is to wake me up at 7AM with bell ringing.

The EU can't moan, they turned a blind eye when they let them and Italy join.

Do you know how many customs officers that regularly patrol the 'border areas' in the UK?

I bet you don't...

Funnily enough...

"The Independent submitted a freedom of information request asking the Border Force, which is part of the Home Office, to reveal the number of customs officers it employs in frontline roles, and to provide comparable figures for recent years.

The department said it did “not hold data on the numbers of staff who are currently detailed to perform customs roles” and that it would be too expensive to work out the number of officers, as doing so would require a “manual extensive check” of records at various fragmented facilities scattered across the UK."

People in glass houses and all that!

Yep, the knotted hankie and Speedo combination always works.

Not had to avoid the looky-lookies since a Paris trip many years ago.

And anyway, I couldn't justify spending of that magnitude on a new timepiece.

Italexit NEXT !
