  1. The problem remain had was a lot of their supporters had spent years pretending they were euro sceptical. Cameron’s laughable suggestion that had he not got significant treaty change he’d recommend leaving, is a case in point. He lied, plain and simple, and people saw through it. People like Ken Clarke were extremely rare on the pro side, somebody who told it like it was, how it was going to be, and fuck the consequences to his career (had he bullshitted like major & Cameron he’d have led the party). The remain establishment had 40 years to sell us the vision, but they never did. They always criticised The EU, always saying it needed reform or change. Their argument was The EU’s shit, but being outside is even shittier. That’s no way to win hearts and minds and no way to win a referendum. Vote leave we’re pushing at an open door, a door left ajar by people pretending they were euro sceptic until it mattered. It was too late by then. The narrative was its shit, but do we make things better by leaving or staying in and reforming it?
  2. She’d be turning in her grave at your lack of knowledge. The CU was formed in 1968 prior to our membership. It was the Single Market.
  3. The mixer? It’s called, the “non second third profitable zone” nowadays. Or the nstpz as it’s better known.
  4. Is warrior suggesting fracking or is he just throwing pony around again?
  5. I did yes. Based on your halfwitted posts, I’d imagine most people understood more than you did.
  6. If we get rid of the sweaties & there’s a United Ireland, that’s an upside.
  7. Anyone who thinks Armstrong is better than Ings is certified insane.
  8. I thought you said there was no upside to Brexit.
  9. Is that unrated Ryan Bertrand who by the time we signed him had won international caps at,under 17, 18,19,20, 21’ & senior level, represented GB at the Olympics, and won the champions league. That one?
  10. No, but his PS4 stats are shite.
  11. That’s how free markets function, so he’s right about that. Whether there should be a market in energy is open to debate, but once there is, suppliers will go bust. What’s moronic is Government policy bankrupting viable businesses.
  12. Government policy has turned this from a short term crisis into a long term disaster, and we’ll be paying for this for years to come. It’s another example of “so called” Tories interfering with the market with unintended consequences. The Government imposed rate cap is now forcing suppliers to sell energy at a loss. If this continues only the big companies will have the reserves to weather the storm. Capitalism relies on poor businesses going bust, but setting an artificial tariff below cost price means smaller viable ones will go as well. The upshot of this is when the wholesale rate falls, the cap will still be high (as it reflects previous wholesale prices) but lack of competition (as the disrupters have gone tits up) mean the big boys will have no need to offer particularly competitive prices. We’ll be back where we were when everybody was screaming about cartels and the big 6 companies stitching things up. If the was no rate cap, prices would be higher now, but I bet over a 5 year period they’ll be a damn sight lower than they will be. Competition lowers prices, not Government imposed rates. If it was Corbyn or Milliband I could understand it, but this lot are meant to understand how markets work.
  13. Fucking hell, forget the NHS getting a Brexit dividend, what about putting some extra into education.
  14. Of course it’s way too early to judge him a failure, but it’s also way too early to claim we did “pretty good” recruiting Tino, Broja, perraud & Armstrong. None have played more than a handful of games and none have won a league game yet.
  15. Blackmore needs to go as well.
  16. FFS, does it really matter. You sound like a right nod.
  17. Fuck me, his CA in FM22 is unbelievable. I was t expecting that, what’s his RLM figures? I suspect the PAB will be in hot water with the BBB over that one.
  18. Martin Lewis was specially asked this question on 5 live last week, and confirmed the new supplier didn’t have to honour a previous supplier deal, making the point that the reason they went bust was probably because their tariffs were unsustainable anyway . His website says this. “When a new supplier's appointed, you'll likely be moved to a new deal – which may cost more. Ofgem says it's likely your current deal will end and you'll be moved to a special 'deemed' contract (a tariff you won't have chosen). These tend to be pricey, so it's possible your bills will go up.” Why would any new supplier honour a contract they didn’t negotiate and managed to bankrupt the previous one? Ofgem says it’s “likely” your deal will end, I’d say it’s pretty fucking certain.
  19. They will have identified him. But just like VvD at Celtic, they’ll let us road test him, and will move on him when he’s proved himself.
  20. Good lad…. “When I was staying in the hotel, I would go with him to his house to play FIFA. He was very important for me. I play as Barcelona. Yan plays as Real [Madrid] or Paris [Saint-Germain]” Forget Big Mal, Mooreo & Venables pepper pots in an East End cafe, FIFA’s where it’s at. #hipsters
  21. It’s fixed unless your supplier goes bust. The new supplier doesn’t need to honour that agreement, just offer you it’s standard tariff.
  22. You need to read “The hipsters guide to football”. I read it before match day 4 and learnt all about low blocks, Xg’s & against the ball.
  23. They always switch it to the present season after a handful of games.
