If we revoke then we keep these opt outs. Personally I have no problem with Schengen but we would need to introduce ID cards and start to enforce the already existing limits on the movement of EU citizens. I have always been in favour of the Euro and it would open up a new range of selling opportunities. I regard it as one big missed opportunity. We've got a good deal at the moment. I can't imagine a better one. Would I be in favour of joining under higher costs? Yes I would, but it should be remembered that there are valid reasons for our reduced contributions.

Don't you think that people will die in Northern Ireland?

Every man has his price and they don't come much cheaper than me

They were all conned and used for personal political ambitions. Nobody likes to admit to being conned or used so they pretend that this is what they wanted all along.

Friday night football is just awful and if it's Monday night my grandson can't come with me because it's school next day. -
You obviously didn't read what I wrote. Besides, more people voted in the 1992 General Election. Another Brexit myth demolished.

"Why not use the younger..." Because they're not as effective as Long in that role.

Thanks. I like Lighthouse and I hope that he (she?) Took it in the spirit that I intended.

Any hope that Stephens’s injury would keep him out for the season?

Not only selfish but ignorant too. Did you have a counter-argument or have you just run out of words?
-
True. And also not true. It wasn't actually a contest and she did hold a GE very soon after her takeover.

The leader of the party for whom you're voting is usually known at the time of the vote, along with the deputy leader. When was the last time that there was a leadership contest during a term in office?

Democracy means one man, one vote, once only doncha know.
-
That was nothing like democratic. For real democracy every voter has to have a similar interest in the result. For some voters the outcome won't make much noticeable difference. For others they lose their livelihoods and all that they've worked for over more than forty years. If you're retired with a guaranteed final salary pension and a nice lifestyle then you can afford to indulge your fantasies. Very selfish.

What an excellent judge of character
-
As I have said, nothing new then. Nothing that we haven't been able to do until now. Unless you can come up with something? You've had three years to think about it.
-
That's nothing to look forward to.
-
Indeed. There is no upside to Brexit and there never was. If there were we would have discovered it by now. After all, they've only had three years to come up with something. The only justification now for going ahead is that some group of people voted for it a few years ago. 1.5 million have dropped off the electoral register since then and a similar number have joined and its their future that's at stake.

I still do but I wish I didn't.

It’s pronounced ‘horsesh1t’

Jason Puncheon has been released at the end of his contract by Crystal Palace after six years. It doesn’t seem like yesterday.

I fell British and European in equal amounts. The British bit changes to English whenever the Scots start getting nationalistic.

The United Kingdom and the Death of Boris Johnson as we know it.

He deserves nothing. But I get your point. -

That’s unlikely. They would have known exactly which candidate you meant.
