On my Twitter feed - where I follow a couple of US media - getting promoted tweets to "move on and invest in the isle de Paris" clearly aimed at US business investment; I expect this is happening everywhere - German, French, Irish targeting International investors - A Brexit Uk govt bet get on with establishing us as this "free from the shackles of the EU" enterprise island pretty soon or we are going to end up as the poor man of Europe again. My worry is they don't really have a plan at all

Bloody hell - the French journalists reaction on Newsnight is enough to make a bit of me think maybe we chose righ "we functioned very well for the 17 years before we let you in' type reaction

She's not an MP though

Hopefully May. Corbyn you must be joking Malambu - after his virtual non-show in the referendum the bloke is an useless old tosser

Nice 100 numbers I am enjoying ZZTop, and am pleasantly surprised mainly because they are playing blues rather than Heavy Metal

France, Italy and Holland are all in the Euro, putting a whole degree of potential risk and potential f*ckuppery for Frexit etc even beyond the one 'we' voted for yesterday - not gonna happen I think. We are just going to have to play tough leveriging with our big trade defecit partners we have in Europe - mainly France & Germany; plus the smaller ones for whom we are a vitally important trading partner (Ireland & Holland); we need some tough negotiators as soon as possible ...Cameron's attempts at nefgotition were useless as the EU didn't think we'd ever leave.. We are going to be worse off for a few years now, and that's a rosy scenario...there's a more catastrophic one which I'm parking for now...

what *bob* says - ironically the "dog whistle" campaigning approach as the left likes to call it applies as much to shouting 'racist' at anyone who questioned the EU. I think it's the wrong decision and am quite unsettled but it's democracy. The screaming left - the lack of movement at the EU (on negotiations and reform)- Cameron's poor negotiation; no decenbt positive case made........all culpable. But seriously my left wing mates, and I have many, get off your high horses

We gonna do this this year people? Remember, no "Glasto"

Guys - someone on this thread has issues don't get too excited

Social media and sanctimonious moral posturing nearly pushed my cross to leave....but I voted Remain

Congrats Ireland! "Scenes" as they say.

Croatia look excellent to me (apart from the last 5 mins Vs Czech) England really are a very average side - who were in a very weak group - despite all Woys talk, but then again most of the sides so far look pretty average.

I think it's possible that some posters (ahem) On This Thread have *issues*, if my recall of EDF history is correct - apologies if not

Because nationalised railways were so great, oh yes. There's some very rose tinted glasses about how great trains were pre-nationalisation in reality they were sh1te with terrible reliability and zero service ethic from the vast majority of employees. The massive increase in train traffic since privatisation reflects the massive improvement in stock, services and reliability despite the ridiculous 'truth' that things were so much better before. Crap.

1999/2000 no austerity post crash......but your general point is true.

I *think* a certain poster on this thread has some previous, just sayin

Oh good, Lindylou is posting again..........

Overall it's not really caught fire yet this tournament* - Agree? *exceptions being Payet and Northern Ireland

At 15 minutes that's not great value for an album - do you get free peanut butter?

No one should go out to do their job and not come home to their family, absolutely terrible news.

BTW seen the photo of Russian and English fans having a kick about yesterday in Lille...French police reaction? confiscate the ball.

I think 'culturally' you could argue our behavior is possibly unacceptable and unnempathetic and there's the past of course - but we aren't the only fans meeting in large numbers, drinking loads and singing* but WE are the only ones being teargassed and charged at for doing this. Plenty of welsh fans also mixing with the English last night getting the same treatment. I've seen no evidence at all that England fans have "started" any trouble; worth noting that the 40,000 in Germany 10 years ago caused no bother with better policing. *some of the songs are unpleasant too.
