Nailed it on the first part. I'm not sure how anyone can possibly argue that the EU isn't massively beneficial to us in terms of attracting international companies.
They haven't literally lost most of these areas yet, but UKIP has made serious inroads. The problem is that said areas have a certain anti-immigrant sentiment among Labour support now: none of Kendall, Burnham or Cooper would've fixed that because the Labour party is pro-immigrant.
Reading comments from the guy from Sinn Fein this morning regarding unification of Northern Ireland and the ROI, is this something that could potentially spark problems over there again?
As long as they're not black or gay.

Ditto. Just want to see it debated in parliament as well.
I do wonder if we stand to benefit from all this in terms of some companies jumping ship and establishing European HQs here.
Wouldn't blame them if they fecked off this time.
That not a recovery. Price has just settled waiting for New York to take it down further.
Sinn Fein and Gerry Adams are a caricature of themselves at this stage and will use anything negative about the Uk to claim unification so I'd take that with a pinch of salt.
It they hold one (and I'm sure they will) they'll vote for independence by a staggering majority, probably similar to how they voted yesterday.
Go for Ningbo if you're not limited to a certain place. I travel up and down the coast a few times a year and I think Ningbo is like a Chinese version of Hamburg. There are over 100 small islands off the coast and it's not overrun by tourists.Id actually love to give China a try..........sell me on it mate
They voted to remain part of the UK the can't now throw their toys out of the pram because now a democratic vote didn't go the way they liked. They need to respect the UKs decision
That's pretty much the only benefit right now. Morgan-Stanley have already said they're going to move to Dublin and Frankfurt if the UK vote leave.
I don't really blame people that are not concerned by it but the professionals should know better, these rules are meant to make their lives easier. They need to think about the guy who is at Rungis (the biggest wholesale food market in the world) receiving their product, he can't reasonably receive +28 type of packaging that have not been checked by customs and it's also a nightmare in terms of storage, they can't have +28 types of shelves.
No they don't. Scotland voted to stay in the UK when the UK was a part of the EU. Given the implications of Brexit they absolutely have a right to call a referendum. Especially when they overwhelmingly voted to remain.
They largely voted that way because they were uncertain as to whether an independent Scotland would be able to join the EU.
Their referendum ended so damn close that the first thing we did to piss them off was always going to result in a fresh one. They'll call a new referendum, as is their right to do, and they'll win independence from the rest of the UK.
It'll be a while before that particular powder keg is neutralised but I'm amazed at how good it's been.
They absolutely can and will.
Would be kind of farcical if we do vote back in next month.Bollocks. The situation has changed in the UK in a big way and it has done so in a way that is against all of Scotland's wishes. They've every right to consider their options.
Corbyn was completely invisible throughout the referendum and is in favour of completely open borders!
Have you received the email from them yet? I signed it but it I got the maintenance screen after confirmed my email.
Yeah right. Who will in Whitehall will sanction this chaos?
Yea there's no doubt at all that he's failed to do anything approaching leading.
So Dublin will go full London in terms of nobody who isn't a highly paid professional being able to afford to live there, brilliant :S
A competent Labour leader would've likely just championed a multi-cultural Britain with current levels of immigration. That'd have still disillusioned Labour Brexit voters.
Are you listening are you listening to yourself?
Nah, not really, although one of my mates who is studying something computer related at uni has said that a Brexit just fecks his career plans.
Only problem is, based on that, if there is another referendum and it's, say 55% in and 45% out, on a 74% turnout, then we'd have to keep going until enough people voted. This could last years!
Pure delusion.
PM Boris - as he knows winning an election without any Scottish seats would be pretty easy
Alan Johnson was useless as well. I genuinely don't know where he has gone.
Meh, we were told to stay on the basis of promises which have almost all being reneged. With all just respect, I couldn't really give an utter feck about respecting the decision of a nation who I do not see myself as a part of, and who we have an extreme disconnect from. There's no place for us in a non-EU, Boris-Tory led nation.
