I'm voting to:

(a) scrap Trident, so that we can

(b) fit a load of otherwise surplus submarine engines to Great Britain, so that we can

© take the entire island on a cruise to somewhere more interesting. Possibly the Carribean. (Ireland probably needs to move out of the way.)

You didn't put that option in the poll, so I've clicked on 'in' for the time being.



That reminds me of one of my favourite Satirewire articles: http://www.satirewire.com/news/jan02/australia.shtml

In. I'm not sure I understand all of the implications enough (financial/social/political) as any "facts" have been spun so hard by both sides that it's impossible to known the truth. I've taken a philosophical view, namely, should we be trying to remain closer to other countries or distancing ourselves from them.....

I'm worrying that if we vote OUT, that the very next day the Queen will keel over


Then we'll have Boris orchestrating a state funeral, and Charles off his potty & onto the throne with Queenish Camilla sitting by his side


And we'll wonder how the fuck we all ended up there


Let's all hold hands and sing 'we are the world, we are the people'


And what will we call croissant and baguettes ?


Oh and please, let's go back to pre-decimal and the Police in Reliant Robins

Have been 'in' (by a fag paper) for a while but am now, if i force myself to admit it, a genuine 'undecided' and could go either way.


Yes, I know... there are so many unpleasant gobshites in the 'out' group and, well, we all want to play with the popular kids don't we?


I dunno. Always was suspicious of those popular f*ckers.

I remember a time when men worked all week and would bring home their wages and give them to their wives..


She would give him back some 'Pocket Money' for Beer and Baccy. and manage the home finances with the rest..


This may well of founded the idea of the E.E.C. and the E.U.


The E.U suggests we are not capable of managing our own finances..


Stuff the E.U. I'm OUT

Latest:


Remain a member of the European Union 96 81%


Leave the European Union 19 16%


Unsure 4 3%


Other 0 0%


Don't get me wrong, it's very interesting and a good idea, but asking the EDF users how they would vote on this issue is a bit like doing a straw poll of Guardian subscribers in Hampstead! It's certainly way out of kilter with the rest of the UK.

Can't vote but spouse is voting IN as is his entire family (siblings and parents).


Doesn't want a recession, and thinks economically UK is better off in Europe. What we pay for the trade access is well worth it.


Also, he doesn't mind immigrants (having married one). We have Polish friends. Virtually all EU migrants are in work so they pay their way in the country etc. Also, he doesn't value the idea of total sovereignty that much.

I'm starting to think Foxy is actually some element of a Turing Test.

    • I think you need to get a grip If it's who I am thinking of, she's a young black girl in her twenties, has braids with bright colours through them and - I suspect - works with her father. It's always the same man behind the wheel and he's older than her, always in the same van, so I'm assuming it's a father-daughter combo which, if it is, I think is rather sweet.  They hustle hard in a job that is poorly paid, has little prospects, is relentless and thankless. The fact that they have stuck it out since the pandemic says a lot about them.  I think she's a lovely girl, who's perhaps a little shy - but she'll smile or chat back if you make the effort with her. And I admire her for sticking with that job for so long. Perhaps she's just one of these people who's naturally a bit clumsy or bashes things, the same way some people are heavy on their feet when they walk. But I wouldn't dream of jeopardising her job because she closes the slams the gate and doesn't 'kiss' the ring doorbell with her fingers.  Perhaps she's being passive aggressive because you are. And perhaps she also wishes she got to spend her time worrying about potential damage to her letterbox or her gate.  As for your gate / letterbox - you're talking about hypotheticals. Has there been any damage? No. Then go and live your life and worry about it when it happens.  (apols we have the wrong person, but some of my points still stand). 
    • Greg did an amazing job! He built a cabinet in my living room and added shelving. A lovely guy and perfectionist who goes the extra mile. He really understands what you want and comes up with various options to meet your price range. Would highly recommend!
    • I love the fact that virtually everyone held their hands out when furlough payments were made yet can't equate massive debt with massive cash payments to keep the economy ticking over.   
    • The problem with delivery people nowadays is that they are on such a restrictive schedule that they literally have to just try to deliver and run, otherwise they are penalised. I understand the frustration though.   And good luck making any kind of complaint to Evri. I once sold a laptop on ebay, took it to the Evri pick-up, where it was processed and it then went 'missing' between their pick-up place and the hub. Went through a long, long process where they offered me a desultory amount in compensation and I had to take them to small claims court before they came up with a fair offer the day before we were due to be in court. Long story short, Evri are shite.   Go to look at this forum for the number of people who have issues: https://nationalconsumerservice.co.uk/forum/183-postal-and-delivery-services/
