Seven years ago, I would have agreed. Since 2012 though, the way that benefits have been denigrated, and made more difficult to collect, pay increases have slowed, and a rise in zero hour contracts, poverty has been on the rise. It's gone too far, and people are dying because of it. It is getting harder and harder to remove yourself from the poverty cycle. It's why I am no longer a member of the Conservatives.

What's that got to do with knowing the ins and outs of mental illness?

You clearly have no idea about mental illness.

Yeah, good call mate, reasonable to do to someone that suffers from depression.

We had to do a working group in the second year of Uni around the Laffer Curve, and whether it should be rejected or accepted as a sound economic model. You could pick out the people who were going to fail Macro Economics, that's for sure.

Lame and Always need to sit back, calm down, and enjoy the show. The more they react, the more that Heise and CF are going to bate them.

Matt Targett - Joins Aston Villa (Official)
Unbelievable Jeff replied to Kaiser Soze's topic in The Saints
Good luck to him. Always had a good left peg but his lack of positioning and lack of pace means he'll probably never make it as a good LB. Maybe a slow winger of the Lee Holmes ilk. -
Because we were talking in relation to Brexit - this is the Brexit thread isn't it? I have acknowledged that there were other reasons, so what are the needs to mention them by name? Mind numbing.

Honda moved because the Japanese trade agreement with the EU meant they could import cars for a similar (although still slightly higher) price to building them in the UK (due to the way that we subsidise them). These costs would obviously be higher once we left the EU and meant costs would increase for Honda over and above the break-even point with the new EU deal. Add in the continued Brexit uncertainty and there is no doubt Brexit played a part. It wasn't the only reason, but it was one.

If it's anything like the Honda plant in Swindon, it's a lot. I heard an interview with a couple that recently lost their house as they both worked at Honda and we're made redundant. They voted Brexit, and they said that even now, they'd vote Brexit again. Mind boggling.

But Milliband was godawful...not really much of a positive there. -
Growing up watching Football Italia, Inter were always my Italian team. Going to the San Siro, and meeting up with a group of friends I hadn't seen in 15 years was a very special experience for me. So glad that I got to experience it before it gets knocked down.

You wouldn't plead him not to rape someone then? That's a very oddly constructed sentence there. -

But you do now realise that he's not going to follow through on the Brexit promise, don't you? And even if he wanted to, some people would prefer to see Corbyn in charge than going no deal, so Corbyn it will be... -

Conned over Brexit, conned over voting for a pinky Tory, conned over leaving on October 31st. That's the funny part. -

I'm not even that sure that many the people you are talking to will be voting Labour at the next election if Corbyn is in charge.
