    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

      Yes very funny, UKIP is BNP and anyone who supports a Britain outside of the EU is basically a :nazi:

      Yawn. FOAD.

        Sorry to spoil your expected symmetry, but I voted "Pro-Leave / Believe in man-made climate change"

          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.

            I'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.

              "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.

                Put me in that camp - I think he's an opportunist c@ck. Still voting Leave though. Cheerio EUSSR...

                  What leap of faith is that?
                  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?

                    I'm 70% sure some degree of climate change is man-made, so no deceit there unless it is self-deceit.

                    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?
