Yes indeed. History tells us the lower paid and average career joes do really well in a recession. No job losses that kind of thing.

Vote Brexit for recession! And help the man in the street.

Scaremongering nonsense.

No one knows what will happen.

OK so Boris is allowed to change his mind but Corbyn isn't.

Boris is allowed to use quasi racist phrases such as 'piccannini's with water melon smiles' in a speech and then later be mooted as a potential party leader, yet an anti semite smear campaign against Labour is allowed to gain traction.

Double standards me thinks.

Personally I think Corbyn is allowed to change his mind. I've changed mine god knows how many times over the last few months. My issue with Corbyn is I am not sure whether he has REALLY changed his mind. Up until the leadership election his position had always been perfectly clear, now even supporting remain it feels like he is a reluctant figurehead.

As for Boris and piccanninies it is totally unacceptable and a clearly racist term

I think it depends on what you mean by EU rules and deporting. I quite agree that the freedom of movement needs to 'go' and be replaced by a regulated and controlled form of immigration.

However, if you mean under Human Rights legislation, that was introduced by the UK into UK law. There are also EU regulations regarding where you can deport people.

Another case could be UK law on deportation being dressed up as EU laws, because that is how an appeal would be heard. For example, you can't deport someone to a country from which you granted them asylum. Whilst the appeal would be through human rights and the EU Court of human rights, the actual issue, is based in UK law - Which is that you've established their asylum status as someone who would be in unjust danger or persecution in that country.

Legally, it would be contradictory to then deport them in that scenario.

Plus if we leave, Sterling will weaken, which will mean a further influx of overseas buyers in the market keeping prices at the very least where they are now.

The property argument is probably the worst bit of scaremongering by the world champion scaremongerers.

Agreed. Funnily enough, a load of my mates (aged 23-27) weren't going to vote in this election, but now they've heard it might help them buy a house more easily, they're going to vote leave.

Nice one George, you fcking idiot.

It's pertinent to this discussion.
Did you read the transcript of the anti semitism hearing that I posted on the thread? What are your thoughts?(please post on the Labour anti - semite thread though as I fear it will detract from the subject of this one)

Edited by nickgusset (07 Jun 2016 9.47am)

I am allowed to mention matters when they are valid and in the context of posts made.

It's funny that you are doing all of this 'Level 2' nonsense, directed at me and only me. DEFLECTION springs to mind whenever I see it.

Majority of new voter registrations have been under 34. Probably not a good sign for the Leavers.

He probably is a reluctant figurehead. But he is following what the majority of his party want so as leader he is democratically representing his party. If only more MP's had the balls to follow the wishes of their constituency rather than what the whip says.

As for Boris. It seems no matter what he does he somehow gets away with it.

I mean your great leader Russell Brand has been talking about revolutions and all that, You finally get what you've all wanted & you all s*** your pants and decide to keep the status quo.

Strange bunch..

I'm in the out camp, and I'd say I'm pretty left wing.

When you take what Kermit said out of context it is. But it was actually in response to something along the lines that those at the top (high earners) will suffer the most and is historically accurate.

You would expect that, though, surely?

I assumed it was sarcasm. This is comrade kermit after all.

That would of course explain why we keep hearing how terrible it will be if we leave from certain institutions. Not that we need to it explaining.
