REFERENDUM RESULTS AND DISCUSSION THREAD

[Jolemai]

Morgan said the same thing today too - well the first sentence anyway.

From the link below.


Taxpayers are paying more than £400,000 a year to subsidise a farm where a billionaire Saudi prince breeds racehorses.
The Newmarket farm of Khalid Abdullah al Saud - owner of the legendary horse Frankel - is among the top 100 recipients of EU farm grants in the UK.




he UK's top beneficiaries include estates owned partly or wholly by the Queen (£557,706.52); Lord Iveagh (£915,709.97); the Duke of Westminster (£427,433.96), the Duke of Northumberland (£475,030.70 ) the Mormons (£785,058.94) - and many wealthy business people.
Asked if the Queen thought it appropriate to receive taxpayers' subsidy based on the size of her land holding, a spokesman for the Palace said: "Subsidies are open to all farmers, and are received on the Queen's private estate. We would not comment beyond the detail that is already in the public domain."

:facepalm: THM, at least quote the part in regards to Brexit...

 

[lemonjelly]

Absolutely. I mean a saudi prince has LOADS to do with the EU...

 

[machin05]

Won't somebody think of the haybails....

Well he seems to be getting quite a lot of EU subsidies.

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

Because he owns a fuckload of British land. Which won't change a jot whatever happens with Brexit. Similarly, that cunt Trump owns a bucketload of golf course land oop north and Brexit means nowt to that as well.

If I may respond to LJ - Kenneth Clarke was always going to have a swipe and a half. Hard to think of a bigger Europhile on the Conservative books.

Just imagine if he had an olive grove...

True pad. That said, he's connected closely to whats going on, and there's little evidence out there of any coherent plan.

 

[Tredman]

I seem to remember that utter cunt Paul Dacre gets a shit load of EU subsidies for his farm too.

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

Kenneth Clarke is no more connected to the front bench than I am now. He is older than Methusalah and the party (rightly or wrongly) have moved on. Twenty years ago, a Europhile Conservative party led by Ken Clarke would have been just about a perfect party for me to vote for*

*plus my dad would have made a mint as a look-a-like.

Speaking after May at the conference, the secretary of state for Brexit, David Davis, gave no extra details on how the process might take place, while also stressing that “the clear message from the referendum is this: we must be able to control immigration”.

 

[visage]

Its amazing how many politicians are able to discern clear messages from a 52/48 result. And how many of those messages chime with their natural leanings.

 

[Tredman]

On the back of hard brexit looks like GBP heading for 1.1

Never mind though, Boris, Liam and friends say it will all be FINE

Oh and we are at a 31 year low against the dollar.

 

[visage]

The treasury has estimated that moving to a WTO arrangement (so-called Hard brexit) will cots about £5200 per household per year.

Marvelous.

 

[leedswolf]

Yeah, but we can control our borders and have our Sovereignty. Less queues at hospitals and GPs, more housing available. Better access to schools and our own fishing industry. Has to be a price worth paying. Better than spending £350m a week into the EU.

Sorry, is that scaremongering?

Or people that are educated and experienced in macro Economics and business, and don't have a vested interest in scaremongering.

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

Hahahahahahahahaha

Did you just try and imply that UKIP don't have a vested interest in scaremongering???

What about the fucking poster that basically said immigrants are all a danger.

 

[Del Woppio]

They were brown ones though pad, they are a danger
