3500 job losses in Swindon. Electrical Trainee courses will be licking their lips. Still we’re British, we’ll dig for victory and fight them on the beaches. I’m off to buy some chickens and seed potatoes

Swindon job losses are due to MEPs voting to lift Jap import tariffs,nothing to do with Brexit,nice timing don't you think.
Swindon MEP/green party, was one of them and then had nerve to visit factory and say rubbish like "project fear is becoming project reality".
How many job losses were there when the same MEPs voted to give a grant to Ford to move from Southampton,to Turkey, a non EU country?

It's all about brexit,
When we come out of the customs union and single market we'll lose most of our car industry and although this is obvious to any who cared to think it through you'll still be saying it's nothing to do with brexit.

Nissan going 'nothing to do with brexit'
Ford going 'nothing to do with brexit'
Honda 'nothing to do with brexit'
Toyota 'nothing to do with brexit'
And on and on, other industries also.

Oh and the EU never gave Ford a 'grant' to go but it dosen't matter, you carry on believing the lies you've been told. It's all you've got left.

I’ve been watching this shambling nonsense brew itself into quite a malignant froth over the last couple of years. The Brexiteers thought they could just step off the plane but it turns out that nobody knew how to land the plane and so we would have to parachute. Except it then became clear they had forgotten to bring the parachutes. Now they are handing out cocktail umbrellas to manage the situation. My favourite joker is Chris Grayling. All that red tape has already overwhelmed all his senses. But even he has a silver lining, in the sense that he can only get better. Then there is that jester Nigel Farage. He is charging his supporters £50 to walk from Sunderland to London. Except he’s not walking the whole way himself but is getting onto busses. What would really make the Brexit fallacy more fun, is if the EU handed Europe over to us. Let us run the entire show for a while. After all, we got form in running an empire. It could be a big adventure in the new Garden of Eden.

The problem is to save face MPs will vote for the PMs deal. Wouldn’t you like another vote to stick with the deal we currently have? After all this whole farce is a result of unhappiness over austerity caused by the banking shambles and nothing to do with the EU.

 

[FatAlan]

Out of interest, who thinks that they have a competent MP who puts their constituents interests above party loyalty? My MP is Jeremy Hunt who I liken to a meerkat, he only puts his head above the parapet when he has to and the rest of the time tows the party line.

Still, if we go back to the days of the British Empire when people were exploited by huge private companies like the East India company, the rich were very rich and the poor were extremely poor with no rights, all will be fine and dandy..opps doesn’t that sound like the route the Brexiteers want to take! At present I think the Tory party are intrinsically corrupt with too many conflicts of interests linked to public private partnerships fleecing the public purse. Labour under Jeremy Corbyn , say no more... currently an insult to the working class .. if there is such a so called class any more!

I would call myself working class and I'm not insulted.

Do you support Corbyn though?

I do yes

Corbyn and Abbott are the reason labour ain’t in power....

?

Were they responsible for the Labour defeat of 2010 and 2015 or just 2017?

 

[SparkyChick]

Diane Abbot's been around for a very long time and is an absolute disgrace. A complete joke and I dread the day Corbyn and her get elected. It would be a sad day for the country.

 

[Baddegg]

Well I’m not a fan of either of the clowns Andy but I’d be hard pressed to blame them for 2015 that result belongs to milliband....another leader of the “labour” party that’s never laboured a day in their life!

Really?

I have yet to meet a single leaver that has mentioned austerity.
