As a Tory voter and former member, I have gone from being pretty damn angry at the campaign being run by Cameron/Osborne to revoking my membership. Osborne is a fcking cnt. His threat today is an absolute joke.

Alternative budget if we Leave? George, I hate to break it to you, you thick fck, you will not be chancellor if we vote to leave. You shouldn't be fcking chanchellor anyway. Even if you are chancellor there's absolutely zero chance of you getting such a budget through parliament.

I will never, ever, ever again vote for a party that has him on the front bench.

With you all the way there,I to voted for them, but no way on earth would I do it while those two are anywhere near it.

I keep hearing about EU reform in the context of what we should be trying to achieve by remaining.

But is it a myth?

I'm afraid so.

If Cameron couldn't get anything meaningful with a pending in/out referendum at home, what chance will he have on the back of an IN vote?

"Please reform or, well, nothing really"

Lol

You are funny.

This is a desperate threat by Osbourne to scare people.

If I was on the fence or ever Remain I think this would make me vote BREXIT.

As far as what you told us.

You must be joking if you think anyone with a half a brain sees Labour as a better option.

Anyone who thinks we will not be financially worse off, and that some will suffer the knock-on effects from that, in the short to medium term, if not longer, if Brexit wins should never have been allowed to vote and should also be incarcerated in a Funny Farm.

Actually with the problems with Schengen, the euro, failing economies (and not just Greece) - we may well be better of outside this customs union.

I'd imagine the overwhelming majority acknowledge the implications and are will to accept the risks

I actually got to take part in the Chinese version of Question Time tonight discussing Brexit which was really random, yet very interesting.

It featured, an Italian diplomat who used to work in Thailand, a British TV anchor who works for state media in China called 'Big Cow' in Chinese (I kid you not), three Chinese political commentators and the Chinese ambassador to the UK.

All the panel were either neutral or for remain so I knew I had a bit of fight on. Sadly our host only wanted to talk about the economy as a reason for staying / leaving, but he did ask about whether or not other countries might want to leave in the event of a Brexit vote and what it might mean for Anglo-Chinese relations.

To sum up, lots of yelling just like our question time! The 'big cow' accused many in the leave camp of basking in a long gone days empire demanding special treatment. I manage to get my counter in about how Europeans think the world still revolves around them and its this arrogance which is causing the EU to break apart.

The Italian diplomat just kept saying that the EU was good and that non EU countries like Thailand (he kept using Thailand for some reason) had little to no influence.

The three Chinese commentators just stayed neutral on the issue, but interestingly enough the ambassador chipped in saying it didn't really matter if the UK was or wasn't in the EU, we would still do business and invest in one another as long as there was demand. He pointed out that the EU and Europe are not the same thing and that Chinese trade just as much with countries such as Switzerland, Norway and Russia as they do with France, Germany and the UK as much as the market and laws allow them to.

I tried to get the debate switched over to the democratic aspect but the host was having none of it, maybe because the EU and China have remarkably similar systems of government.

There is some doubt as to whether Rollo, the Scandinavian who took over Normandy and was William the Conqueror's great great great grandfather,was the same person as the Norweigian Ganger Hrolf.

Seems DNA tests are being carried out with Ganger Hrolf's tomb in Normandy having been opened for this purpose!


Interesting though,in any event, to see the HOL Hrolf naming himself after the dynastic founder of a lineage containing such a prominent early exponent of union between European countries, albeit union against the will of the "English"

There is a lot of doubt about a lot of history. Scandinavian history of that era is largely from legend.

There is no doubt however that your little jibes are as lame as a fat vikings horse.
