We are not a net importer. This has been shown to be selective reporting of selected statistics and does not bear the weight of any detailed financial scrutiny. Just one of many truly independent sources that you will find on the topic -...

There are definitely a few posters on here who can provide info on what was done back in the dark days. I only joined the supporters trust later once we had already cleared out the fraudsters. Hope you get sorted out and good luck for the future other than games against the mighty ECFC ;-)

This particular snippet of information has been extensively demonstrated to be a clever spin of statistics and not actually true in any meaningful sense of the word. They will continue to export to the UK, they will continue to import from the UK, there will be increased barriers to that...

Are you suggesting an increase in trade barriers is beneficial for trade then Jason? I think it's widely recognized to make things more expensive and worse for businesses. You seem to not agree though?

We will continue to trade with the EU. It will cost us more. We will be able to enter into trade deals with other countries. It will cost us more than it did as an EU member state. The deals will also take a long time to conclude, and in the absence of a deal with the EU to remain under the...

Apologies, we are in the single market, but not the cu, you are correct. My point still stands - Switzerland has trade deals all over the world and its agreements with the EU do not prevent it from doing so. Switzerland also has a (really quite draconian) immigration policy and its...

It's perhaps unfair to say so but we have had an awful lot of injuries this season. Football is a blame game, if we lose the manager is responsible, if we get a ton of soft tissue or joint injuries, you have to say the S&C coach is going to find himself in the firing line. It's not that simple...

Japan has already stated that any trade deal with post-Brexit Britain would be on worse terms than the current EU trade deal. You would be allowed to strike your own trade deals as a non EU member within the customs union. What do you think Switzerland does? Recruit to need would be possible...

He's been living in a furnished apartment in Knightsbridge. It's not exactly Wormwood Scrubbs.

The sexual assault charges were dropped a few years ago. The US charges are not for whistleblowing, they are alleging that he encouraged / assisted Chelsea Manning to release state secrets (which if true would be a criminal offence, whether ethically correct or not). The UK is seeking...

Not only, no. But taking that off the table definitely removed any freedom to negotiate a better deal, which is what was raised a few posts ago.

The only way we could have secured better terms from the EU would have been if we were more prepared to compromise. Membership of the customs union, continuing to allow free movement of workers (perhaps including the stricter controls that all other EU member states have adopted, but which the...

Since 2014, just Devon County council has received almost 32m in EU grant money. The south west has received over 200m. The UK government has made no plans and has no budget to cover these monies...

Apart from those who voted leave despite living in areas of the UK which receive vast EU subsidies for social projects.

More interesting comparisons with Switzerland. There was a referendum in February 2016 (the subject was tax laws for married couples) - the high Court has today confirmed that there was inaccurate/contradictory information in the official voting pack, and as a result has declared the result to...
