    About time he got on with polluting oceans or whatever it is he does. And kept his nose out of politics.

    Big companies now think they are above the law.

      They have an agenda that has nothing to do with Freedom!!!, cough, economic independence or something like that.

        In some area they are thanks to international agreements that have had no scrutiny from participanting countries parliaments
        Socialism is inseparably interwoven with totalitarianism and the abject worship of the state.

        No Socialist Government conducting the entire life and industry of the country could afford to allow free, sharp, or violently-worded expressions of public discontent.

          Many "arguments" on economic effects are about as valid as those on leaving the EU. The reality is that nobody really knows. I doubt either will make a darn bit of difference in the long term, the success of a country depends on its own people.

            I thought the whole point of having the bloody vote was because there were "uncertainties"?
            Whilst my own feeling would be that we should just stick with the status quo, I can't see what difference it will make to BP.
            Regardless of the outcome, they will simply continue to make a tulipload of money out of bringing oil ashore and selling it to the highest bidders.

              Wow, uncertainty. Well that's worrying.

              Obviously the status quo must be the best option then, because, that way, everyone is certain about everything economically in the UK for the next 10 years or so
