No smoke without fire Hudswell and it wasn't from one of those leftie socialist, communist type rags either.
I see they've just arrested the guy who produced the "Brexit the Movie" for fraud; he's another offshore hedge fund manager.

Wales voted Brexit, despite receiving huge EU funding - in all areas. As did the North of England - same. Regrets, I have a few .....

The latest (large) poll completed for Channel 4 for last nights programme, shows 55%/45% in favour of remain. This is massive for a poll of this kind.

I, as a fervent remainer, still cannot understand it even being that close. It is too close, at present, to have a second referendum - but I think when it moves to 60/40 - as I think it will - then we will see a Peoples Vote on any deal.

In the asme polls, a slight majority now favour Independence in Scotland and most people in the UK don't care if NI rejoins the republic.

It appears a lot better in Euro World than it does in UK World.
I see Bombardier just announced 5,000 redundancies.

I am quoting facts, there are 5,000 redundancies but it's how you interpret them, just like you're interpreting the UK employment facts to suit your argument. We've had this discussion before about massaging the figures and zero hour contracts; a bit like having the military sat at home off pay until we have a war but classing them as fully employed.
