"I'm implacably against Brexit, and usually quite like Mark Steel. I don't think banging on about chimney sweeps etc helps the "cause" much though - it's easily dismissed. Serious, hard facts and evidence are much harder to dismiss. " Whole heartily agree, albeit for the leave point of view. The only thing I know for certain is that whoever is proved right once the dust has settled the "losers" won't accept it gracefully and hold their hands and say sorry, we were wrong. | |||

"A double dip recession, coal mines have gone, steels almost gone, nhs failing, construction not what it used to be, more food banks than ever All while we've been in the EU Yea let's stay in " Sounds like a classic causation by correlation error.

As the old phrase goes, if nothing changes, it will stay the same. And I believe leaving the EU is the change Britain needs to stop us all slowly going down the pan" Not really. There are a great many issues within the eu but since I was 18 Ive found myself dissatisfied with the vast majority of british politicians and their lack of pragmatism and foresight. The fact is our government could have easily put in legislation to ensure that companies have to provide technical traineeships for nationals, like just about every other memberstate has, the political will just wasnt there. As for steel and coal, this is largely down to the prior being outcompeted in the country by larger internation companies (outsourcing) and the latter is now more cost than its worth. (Dangerous job, high cost to set up vs too cheap export, then you have carbon tax, and the cost to the taxpayer in the form of eventual environmental damage and air quality decline offset schemes.) | |||

"Disclamer: this is directly copied from the independent website and is the work of Mark Steel written 07.09.17. "Proper British jobs such as knight, chimney sweep, coming 26th in Eurovision and weeing in a foreign fountain will be reserved for BRITISH workers They don’t know how it’s going to work or when it will start or who will be allowed here, but the leaked Brexit papers show at last they’re going to STOP THE IMMIGRANTS from doing all those jobs they do. So we can walk past a field in Hereford with tons of rotting apples no one has picked and be PROUD because we’ll be certain no Pole has been picking them off trees, so they can lie on the ground rotting like PROPER BRITISH apples full of BRITISH MAGGOTS because we’ve GOT OUR COUNTRY BACK. And half the staff in London restaurants are from the EU, but now we can look forward to going out to eat, fetching an empty plate from the kitchen and enjoying an ENGLISH meal, that isn’t cooked or prepared and doesn’t consist of any food so we can look out of the window for an hour and then leave because we’ve got SOVEREIGNTY. We can lie on hospital trolleys singing the National Anthem between screams, enjoying the freedom of knowing none of our taxes are going towards foreign nurses so we can stick a Union Jack in our open wound as it turns septic, shedding tears of happiness because we’re in charge of our affairs again. This is the boost the low-paid have been waiting for, because poor wages are caused by immigration. For example, the nurses have gone several years without a rise, because of a pay cap imposed by Bulgarians. The Prime Minister tried her best to give them more money, but Bulgarians took her guinea pig hostage and threatened to squirt carpet cleaner in its eye unless she kept them poor, so what could she do? The staff at McDonalds went on strike this week against dreadful pay, because Ronald McDonald is a Romanian – the tight-fisted foreign clown, coming over here and setting up burger chains that pay £7 an hour. Luckily, once we’re out of the EU, we’ll rely on investment from America, where I’m sure their burger chains treat staff with far more kindness. The slogan the Government seems keen to adopt is British jobs for British workers. This may involve a bit of thought, as it’s hard to be sure what a British job is. Making pie and mash is a solid British job – though obviously not the bit involving pastry because that’s French. Spitfire Pilot is a highly British job – except that one-fifth of them were Polish, and being Jacob Rees-Mogg sounds British but has a whiff of medieval Italian Pope. But PROPER British jobs such as knight, chimney sweep, coming 26th in Eurovision and pissing in a foreign fountain will be reserved for BRITISH workers. The new system will be fair, because foreigners will be entitled to stay here for two years before they’re replaced. This won’t put them off in any way, because all of us, when choosing where to move to, like to select somewhere that’s going to kick us out two years later. After all, the first questions we ask an estate agent before deciding to relocate are “What are the schools like?”, “Are there nice parks nearby?” and “Do they have a rule that we’ll be kicked out after two years, because we don’t want to become institutionalised?” This seems only fair, because the 300,000 British who live in Spain are all critical to the local economy. Many of them are top-quality, high-grade criminals. We don’t just send them any local burglar: they get our finest bank robbers, hit men and plotters of major heists, to provide skills the Spanish are often short of. They also take many of our most talented and professional pensioners, who are so skilful they can live in a Spanish village for twenty years and still not have the slightest idea how to say “please” in anything but English. So it’s encouraging that the negotiations are going so smoothly. David Davis warned us: “No one said Brexit will be easy,” and this is true, as no one did – except his negotiating colleague Liam Fox, who said a Brexit deal “should be the easiest in history”, but it would be unfair to interpret this as suggesting it might be easy. In some ways the Conservatives are making it look easy, because they clearly haven’t got the slightest idea what they’re doing. It’s like if I was at a meeting of a Formula 1 team that were asking for ideas about how to improve an engine. I’d just sit there and look at diagrams, occasionally saying, “What’s this bit?” while reading a copy of Viz. This means some clauses are a slight surprise, such as the rule we have to pay £50bn to leave. Luckily we’re all prepared for this, as this bill was always mentioned throughout the referendum campaign, with complete honesty. Sometimes the exact figures were slightly off, so they came out as £350m every day would come TO us FROM the EU, which we could spend on the National Health Service, but that’s just a detail. Everyone accepted there would be lots of numbers and that’s the main thing. Because now we can stand in a market and know our beetroot can be triangular without being confiscated by the EU, should we so desire – that’s got to be worth £50bn. And to make it happen, we have the joy of the government having to introduce Henry VIII laws, so to get out of the outdated bureaucratic EU, we have to go forward into the sixteenth century. By 1 December they’ll introduce an Ethelred the Unready law, allowing the government to burn down a village and hand our womenfolk to the Danes, because it’s all going brilliantly and makes us PROUD. Credits: Mark Steel I had to share " Utter deluded opinioned shite. Should say, pay immigrants shit wages and exploit them, instead of paying a decent wage and give better conditions, so at the end of the week, when those have done a job YOU won't do, so you csn shovel a cheaper kebab or pizza down your gullet after swigging beer and spewing up on the street and a low paid 'slave' cleans your spew up, you can say your a proud European. Ive eorked in orchards, and driven tractors in all weather. And I know for a fact you haven't done anything like that, otherwise you wouldnt have copied and pasted that utter, ignorant shite. | |||

I certainly wouldn't do that to mine! or are you actually potentially asking people to be stay away parents?" Same here.

But thats because they can earn £25,000 per month over there, more than a junior doctor earns in a year in the UK. Whats so attractive about working for the NHS or Britain that people will choose that instead of Dubai where they earn a lot more money or the EU where they can stay with their families? Or are you just aiming to get the people who arent good enough to get jobs in either of these places? | |||

You answered your own question there, dubai for more money, or the eu, where the better economy for their families. The idea of it isn't exactly ideal, however; that doesn't mean it wont roll over into another and i can't see people with the skills needed being deported | |||

"I'm implacably against Brexit, and usually quite like Mark Steel. I don't think banging on about chimney sweeps etc helps the "cause" much though - it's easily dismissed. Serious, hard facts and evidence are much harder to dismiss. " Exactly. I voted leave based on sensible debate. I don't agree with you but i respect your decision because it's based on sensible reasoning | |||

"When all is said and done It was still the right decision to leave and time will tell it was the right decision for the uk, I have absolutely no doubt about that for many many reasons. " No doubt at all? How about a drop of 96% of nurses from the EU registering to work in the UK. Does that worry you? | |||

"And brexit is the cause of food banks is it?" No, but brexit is a part of the same political sickness that has led British voters to vote against their own self interest for the last 30 odd years and for many to demand even more radical right wing policies when those are the very things that are harming them. | |||

It'll continue to worry me if our government continues shoving its thumbs up its arse, and doesnt increase training capacity, funding and courses. | |||

"The sad thing is brexit makes some sense in terms of risk reduction (distance from Eu IF*** it goes badly wrong, more strength in decision making etc. ) but the planning, approach and implementation couldn't be much worse and has become economic suicide and backed the UK into a corner of desperation and thus negotiation weakness *** a very low probability if but possible " I for one understand where you are coming from but think you are wrong. There is no probability (low or otherwise) that the EU will fail. There is a remote possibility that the USA will eventually launch an overt rather than continue its failed and failing covert economic war against the EU in an effort to maintain its global economic and fiscal dominance. But in my opinion this has already failed because the US corporations who have driven this covert war have already gutted US economic dominance and handed it to China in an attempt to destabilise the EU which, from where I am looking, is doing perfectly OK thank you. | |||

"Willwill you know better than most that all empires come to an end eventually.... I agree it's a very very very low chance in the next 10 years withstanding a world war or something It is "Imminent" to your typical think as a plank tabloid brexiter " Again I agree with what you say, but remember I am the one who voted leave because I believe we (the UK) are toxic to the EU and need to spend some time experiencing the realities of living in a country dominated by a pro US corporate culture government without the protecting umbrella of 'unelected' Brussels bureaucrats stopping elected representatives of the people sell us out in order to trousers the bribes of the big business billionaires. I accepted that I was voting myself into quick poverty, but now I realise that the tory fascists are attempting to change the rules so much I may have voted myself into slavery. Funny how many are still cheering... I am seriously beginning to think this country has lost its collective sanity. | |||

"Admirable I think you overestimate the capacity of people to learn their lesson. Look at the extreme cognitive dissonance from all the die hards as their world view crumbles by the minute " If our population are so obtuse they refuse to learn then we as a nation deserve to go the way of the Mayans and Carthaginians. In the same way if humanity is so greedy and short sighted that it refuses to believe the mounting evidence of the damage we are doing to spaceship earth then we too deserve the dame fate as the Dodo. | |||
