Failure

Yep. Pay more peanuts and you get bigger monkeys.

I don't know why I bother.

Turdious in the extreme.

I won't bother contesting all of these but two stand out for me. I know the Harwich route very well and the EU directive affects all shipping in the channel and the North Sea and is a measure to improve the environment through the restriction on sulphur in marine diesel. DFDS closed this route because it was an old ship and the route was losing money. Brittany Ferries has upgraded all its ships operating in the Channel. To say that the EU closed this route is deliberately misleading. The bit about the auditors is absolute nonsense. 'Clean bill of health'? Nothing more than trivial discrepancies would be a more accurate description. It's this sort of absolute hogwash that really makes me angry and I despair, really despair for the future of Britain. I'm only surprised that there are enough gullible people out there that fall for this nonsense. Where on earth did you dig it up from? At the very least you should put a name to its source so that the rest of us can know who to heap the scorn upon. Anonymous drivel is easy to copy and paste.

No.

Not a problem. It creates room for the new manager to bring in someone who is his own choice. As for Vic I think he may struggle to fit in at Tottenham. The fans there tend to prefer players who can pass to their teammates.

One person from Schaffhausen did which is hardly the whole of Switzerland.

I've just noticed where that link originates. According to Wikipedia FWIW: 'RT has been called a propaganda outlet for the Russian government and its foreign policy by news reporters, including former RT reporters. RT has also been accused of spreading disinformation. The United Kingdom media regulator, Ofcom, has repeatedly found RT to have breached rules on impartiality, and of broadcasting "materially misleading" content. RT states that it offers a Russian perspective on global events.' Not that anything they say is untruthful or inaccurate, of course.

Yet interestingly Switzerland, Iceland and Norway are full members of the Schengen accord with all the movement of people that goes with it.

Anch'io. My French customer once said to me: "I like Italians. They're like a Frenchman but with a sense of humour".

Italia 90 is what got my daughter first interested in football at the age of 14. Then she wanted to go to a live game so I took her to Bournemouth which was near my in-laws. Then she wanted to go to a first division game so I took her to the Dell and we beat QPR 3-1 (I think). Then she wanted to go more often so eventually I got a couple of season tickets which was easy because Branfoot was in charge and there were plenty to choose from. The rest is history and we have two season tickets on the halfway line at St Mary's. p.s. I used to like Nessun Dorma before it was famous.

Hmm.. Australia, New Zealand, South Africa, India and of course Japan and a host of others, probably more than you would think. http://www.worldstandards.eu/cars/list-of-left-driving-countries/ When Japanese cars first started arriving in the UK in the sixties I was told that they could sell them cheaply to us because we drove on the left and there were no conversion costs..

Interesting body language. Hands crossed in front of the genitals suggests a feeling of vulnerability.

When I used to do a lot of business in Denmark they woould tell me that there cars were actually the cheapest in Europe before the government then stuck a registration tax of 180% on them. Last year this was reduced to 160%. I seem to remember that importing a 'used' car was cheaper, used meaning something like 10 years and 250,000km. Refurbished Mercedes taxis were quite popular among the businessmen.

Only in the context of dishonest politicians. As you rightly say, nothing to do with this debate whatsoever.

He's probably staying there before going off on a cruise today.

It says there that he is only on £3m at Everton. Where does the £7m come from? Another way of looking at things is that during his two years with us none of the academy players improved and the blame for that could be laid at his door.

That's fair enough. We would be leaving a market of 508 million. After we left the EU market would be 444 million. We trade with both, not exclusively one or the other. 444 million is still a hell of a lot and is a lot better than 'only' 64 million, but it would be 64m plus 444m so the argument still stands.

A great professional who we're lucky to have. I'm very pleased for him.

They have been very good, which is refreshing. Collina's influence, apparently. Some very good summaries on here. I'm surprised that Dier got off so lightly. Overhit everything he tried. Nerves perhaps.

But who's going to manage the Black Box?

Not true Another myth. It was the UK government that gave them the money and a large part of it was paid back after a complaint from ABP that at Southampton they had to pay for the terminals themselves. Nothing to do with the EU at all, another attempt to mythlead.

Calling it a revenge budget or a punishment budget is just being childish. If the people are misguided enough to take a wrong decision then we shall all have to deal with the consequences. There would not be any other option and it would all be the result of pig-headed stupidity.
