    You're one of the reasons why I think IQ tests should be made compulsory before granting a vote.
    Bring it on big boy!

    Btw, the rest of your post is bulltulip.

      Sasguru is right - for once. And sadly the solution to too much debt seems to be more debt. Still, as long as the plebs don't realize then the hedge funds can still make loads of money and blame any perceived issues on immigrants, then its all fine.

        There is another solution, but you might not like it...

        The USA reserves the right to withdraw all trade, aid and communication upon the non-compliance of the UK to allow open discussions about the sale of all assets within and partnered with the National Health Service

          I quite like it. If the UK has to be in a major block, I would rather it was the USA than the EU.

            It’s cute the way you say “in a block”, as if the US would give the U.K. anywhere near the same level of fairness as the EU.

            The EU is a market/block of 28 different interests all trying to work together. The US is one market/block with only one interest.

              Nothing whatsoever to do with the Labour Government's Profligate attitude to the UK's financial resources then, eh?

                I don't see much profligate spending under Labour, it's mainly the Tories.



                It's a bit of a myth that only Labour push up deficits.
                I'm alright Jack

                  It's all academic anyway, Labour haven't got a hope in hell, even if they do promise to plant a gazillion trees in the next fortnight!
