Yes. Of course. But the reason I posted this was that I have been a Labour supporter.To be fair mate i think the last few years have revealed the Tories to have the same problem.
Now I only support Manchester United.

Agree totally.He is simply not strong or clever or able enough to lead his own party let alone our country.
His close supporters may love him but that just proves that they are a party happy to be in opposition but just don't have the intellectual thought processes to be in power.
And that is not good.
I have Corbynistas in my family so I am happy to pass on the answer to this question, which I myself have asked.Agree totally.
The Tories have been atrocious and May is a hopeless PM and has even lost a vote by 230 votes but somehow Corbyn looks even worse. How is this possible?
If Labour want to be in power they have to have a leader with some appeal and quality that extends further than their core base.
Can you ask them to summarize the substance?I have Corbynistas in my family so I am happy to pass on the answer to this question, which I myself have asked.
"It's the BBC's fault."
That's right folks. Its a media conspiracy, an establishment stitch up, to make Corbyn look like an incompetent plonker. In actual fact he is brimming with great ideas and is, in fact, playing a blinder, if only the media would report on all the awesome things he says and does.
"He's not perfect. Of course he isnt. But his problems are mainly style, not substance."
This is the world according to The Corbynista.
Before Brexit I'd never heard of him and other than snippets here and there about his past which I've no idea whether it is true or not.I have Corbynistas in my family so I am happy to pass on the answer to this question, which I myself have asked.

Heard on the Radio this morning that far right extremism is growing. 14 Islamic terrorist plots and 4 right wing extremist terrorist plots were foiled last year.Mogg now talking about closing down parlaiment in order to prevent elected MPs from passing amendments
They're going to get someone killed because the far right types will take this shit on board.

The substance is that he isnt a Tory. A Tory, or a Red Tory. He isnt Blairite, he isnt an establishment stooge, he is a conviction socialist, a candidate that offers actual change, rather than the kind of bullshit change-in-name-only that New Labour represented.Can you ask them to summarize the substance?
60k for 20 hours a year isn't half bad. Considering he has shown himself to know feck all he's done a good deal. What could possibly be in it for that company, though?Tweet

Amazing how all these intellectually challenged buffoons are given jobs as consultants.
Thanks for the advice Davis, now I know what not to do.
Oh i wasn't trying to paint you as a Tory mate, just pointing out we're no better off with the Tories in power. Brexit has shown them all to be as incompetent as each other.Yes. Of course. But the reason I posted this was that I have been a Labour supporter.

Lobbying. It's pure corruption, Davis is in a position to influence policies and Mr. Bamford is willing to pay for it.60k for 20 hours a year isn't half bad. Considering he has shown himself to know feck all he's done a good deal. What could possibly be in it for that company, though?

The job above it for the German company is bizarre, and he'll be "eligible for the management incentive plan"60k for 20 hours a year isn't half bad. Considering he has shown himself to know feck all he's done a good deal. What could possibly be in it for that company, though?

And that's only since the middle of December.Yes. Of course. But the reason I posted this was that I have been a Labour supporter.

I’m guessing exports. A weaker pound helps with that.60k for 20 hours a year isn't half bad. Considering he has shown himself to know feck all he's done a good deal. What could possibly be in it for that company, though?

This is honestly a disgrace considering James Dyson’s very public opinion on Brexit.But but but it’s project fear. Dyson the hypocrit just like other Brexiters who want other people to share the pain but not them.

Not at all.And that's only since the middle of December.
I was only jokingNot at all.
I have supported Manchester United since not long after the Munich disaster and have travelled up to OT many times.
I was elated when Jose was appointed and disappointed that things didn't turn out as hoped.
A true supporter follows their team through good and bad.
No offence taken I assure you.I was only joking
You support Bristol Rovers anyway![]()
They still get access to the single market in Singapore though I think as they recently signed a new trade deal with the EU?Was listening to a podcast this morning and they were saying that most of Dyson's productions has been outside of the UK since 2003 and that the UK is a base for R&D and will continue to be so, making the story look more cynical than it is. There is also a growing market in Asia, so there is some other context than Brexit.
And i'm guessing influence. There will be a lot of fine print to be sorted after the 29th of march (whichever way this goes) and they are positioning themselves. (Sorry, it was meant as a rhetorical question). They are also huge steel consumers so I'm not sure how much they'd really benefit from a lower pound (which also devalues all of their assets).I’m guessing exports. A weaker pound helps with that.
Edit:
75% of their production is exported.

They say here they’ve enjoyed and small benefit from the fall of the pound after Brexit and that they buy raw materials in foreign currency.And i'm guessing influence.

Isn't fear a natural reaction to something bad that is actually going to happen? Don't think it requires a project.
It makes a lot of sense. Though it begs the question, are all the politicians tearing their hair out and endlessly talking to journalists about their various plans simply going through the motions? Are they playing along, despite secretly understanding the whole thing is a sham because Brexit is literally undeliverable at this point - regardless of whether people can agree on a plan? Or are they so wrapped up in their own arguments that they havent thought through these logistical problems?https://www.mirror.co.uk/news/politics/brexit-already-been-cancelled-heres-13896286.amp
Really interesting article - for the mirror that is. Thoughts?
I’m guessing the latter. There seems to be an unassumption that someone, somewhere will sort out the technical stuff in some way. They seem oblivious to the fact the buck is squarely on them and there really isn’t anyone else they can pass it to.It makes a lot of sense.

Believe me this is no idle threat. Airbus has absolutely no devine need to manufacture in the UK. It does it because the UK is a technically good and profitable place to operate in.Airbus being very clear they could pull factories out of Britain in the event of no-deal Brexit.

Cant help but feel there is a vital piece of that argument missing from that article, for this very reason. I know MSM has its own agenda and doesnt always report everything it should, or can misrepresent the facts. But I trust other publications more than The Mirror.Though one would also have to criticise the media if that article is true - why on earth have none of the other highbrow or big newspapers drawn attention to it? Are they complicit too?
Why would Airbus give a single shit what their UK employees voted for you dumb bastard?!?! As for the rest of this drivel, just another Tory claiming they know how to run a highly technical global business better than the people who actually run it..Tom Enders has made threats such as this for some time. But he knows that a large proportion of his very loyal workforce in Broughton actually voted to leave the European Union ...
[Enders is] in an industry that is very fortunate in that there are no tariffs imposed on aircraft, and indeed on most aircraft components. So to that extent his industry does not have he problems of disruption that other industries might have.
Certainly, there might be some issue over border checks. But that is something that can be overcome, just as it is overcome at the moment for all those components that Airbus import from other parts of the world than the European Union.
Regardless of whether that article is right or not (I had a conversation with someone the other day who knows his beans who argued likewise; I find that the argument ignores the unprecedented incompetence that has got as us far as this stage), of course we should criticise the media.Though one would also have to criticise the media if that article is true - why on earth have none of the other highbrow or big newspapers drawn attention to it? Are they complicit too?
Take over the plants?
Is that not what a commie would do?
He also needs to check the list of shareholders and think carefully about the consequences.Take over the plants?
As in...
Seize the means of production?
