According to Farage, if we exit there will only be white clouds in the UK. Non-white clouds will be sent back to where they came from.
Night time will also be reduced for the same reason.
We will also no longer have wind blowing from the South as that brings foreign air into our country from Europe. This air will be stopped at the borders.
So, Brexit will solve any climate problems.…Maybe we ain’t that young anymore -

Nope, big difference between "Anyone who supports a Britain outside of the EU" and "UKIP".
It's very possible to be a Brexiter without supporting Farage and his ilk.
Your inability to see that says more about you than it does about me.…Maybe we ain’t that young anymoreComment

"Pro-Remain / Don't believe in man-made climate change"
Assuming we're being serious for a minute: I ticked that but I have a problem with the word "believe". I'm sceptical about man made climate change as I don't believe the arguments are convincing, and I'm also sceptical about the EU. But I'm more sceptical about the Brexit case, being mostly built on things that I find dubious or that I can easily verify aren't true by doing 5 minutes of research. Being sceptical is intelligent; believing is dumb. The Brexit case seems to require a leap of faith, as does believing in climate change, and that's not enough for me.Will work inside IR35. Or for food.Comment

That a country that has a strong liberal democracy will find itself in deep economic and other trouble as opposed to being part of a superstate of which there is no historical precedent of any such group of nations pooling sovereignty except for the Soviet Union?Let us not forget EU open doors immigration benefits IT contractors more than anyoneComment

Originally posted by Old Greg View PostI'm interested in the correlation, not a 100% match. And I did expect some pro-Leavers might either pretend to believe in man-made climate change or be too cretinous to tick the right box.
But I'm intrigued to know the "right box". One of the Remain boxes, obviously, but could it be the "no man-made climate change?" and I'm doubly cretinous?Work in the public sector? Read the IR35 FAQ hereComment
