Vote stay for best of the best Also do you think you're getting the best out of your health service? I don't think so. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Leave campaign has already stated that this huge sum of money we will save when we leave will go towards the NHS, increasing annual spend by nearly 4%. Question back, do you believe this will make a significant difference to the health care you receive? I believe the quality of the care with increase, the waiting times reduced, and the pure fact we won't have doctors or nurses striking is probably the biggest factor! If you look at the reports on Stafford hospital where there has been numours deaths I believe the funding will stop this. A hospital is where you go to get better! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Any sensible business person will tell you that a cash increase of 4% will not suddenly create huge changes in your business. 4% will not be sufficient to open dozens of hospitals and staff and spec them out, sorry, but thats just not going to happen.

I work indirectly for Sainsbury's and am over at their head office in Holborn Circus regularly, I can tell you most of that post is not true at all and something that you might find in the Daily Mail (sorry). So when you have control back, are you going to change the 10% of UK legislation that is dictated to us by the EU. (rhetorical question of course). What else are you going to do with this control, excluding immigration caps?

We joined the EU nearly sixty years ago, so rhetorically no of course not (although at the time it was seen by the majority as a good thing as the UK was not performing well), but then again did you vote for us having two main competing political parties, did you vote for VAT to increase to 20%, did you vote for Wembley twin towers to be knocked down? You can't vote on everything, you vote in a party that you believe will best represent your views and needs. What punishments are you referring to as to remaining in the EU?

Worth every penny mate, actually did it for my 40th. Takes around 3-4 hours in total, I wont give the game away but you get to use laser guns, air soft guns etc as well as night googles and other military equipment. The actors are brilliant, even from the minute you walk into reception to sign in they treat you like raw recruits. It was half way through I had to take a second to adjust my head space as I had genuinely gotten into role and it felt like the end of the world as we know it!

I wont argue with you Jug because clearly any argument will never make you look at it from any other perspective. For you this is massive, for others it isn't for all the many reasons outlined in detail previously.
-
Even if immigration doubled next year (which it wont), you are looking at it going from 0.5% to 1% of total population - I find it quite bizarre that this is seen as such a huge issue, that we are willing to risk economic impacts which if they happen will take money from your pockets for the sake of a relatively small group of people coming into the country each year, many of which are well qualified and paying into the system.
-
The issue is not immigration, its what you give away. Yes it could increase, but its up to us to work within the EU to ensure that we aren't seen as the soft touch of Europe (and to be honest thats not a Cameron thing, thats a failing of successive governments) which is what Cameron was debating with Europe a few months back and got the 'promise' of being able to cap and control payouts to new arrivals. Yes you could argue 'EU will reneg on it' but to be honest thats as speculative as most debate on here - the fact at this time is that promise is on the table.

Depends if the cost is a 2-5% drop in GDP, increased unemployment, benefits requirement etc etc as a fall out of exiting. In addition, if we exit, the existing 4-7% would still receive benefits unless they were subject to legislation that booted them out the country. Its also not cut and dry, many of those 4-7% are immigrants married to UK born people, so do you cut the support that is indirectly supporting UK people? Some of the 4-7% will also be people that would qualify under new rules to only let in people on points but just happen to be between work, do you cut that? This is my issue I have had since day 1, have the benefits of exiting been clearly outlined that they are worth the financial risk. The above really is a tiny pin prick in the countries finances that its simply not worth the risk. The same with the argument we would be able to spend all that EU money on so many things, in the end its a small reduction in energy costs and a 4% increase in NHS budget - again wont touch the sides. It's not in my mind worth the risk.
-
4-7% of 159 billion is quite a lot buddy, whilst it may sound small as a %, actually ££££ it is not. And if they cant be more precise as nearly 100% leeway i.e 4 - 7, who knows what it would actually be. Yes it is a lot in terms of numbers, in the grand scheme of things immigrants are hardly bleeding the country dry. 95% of benefits spend goes to UK born citizens. Like I said before, if your car had its exhaust blowing, cat failed, leaking oil, blowing blue smoke and the passenger window didn't work, what would you be most concerned with - all the engine and exhaust issues or the broken window motor? Thats the 'scale' of the apparent problem and the cost of it in relative terms. Its the same with the quoted EU cost figure, the Leave campaign always quote it as a stand alone figure as most people believe its so much money. When in fact its less than 2% of country earnings per year. £9bn sounds a lot, but when you are earning £500bn+ is it really as huge a problem as everyone makes out?
-
Exactly, the 'scrounging' is an issue that needs resolving. Some previous stats put un-employment benefits estimate at around 4%-7% being spent on immigrants. So the issue is clearly the born and bred people who claim the majority. Obviously that will happen as the number of born and bred people in the UK far outweigh the number of immigrants in the UK. The benefits system here has been too kind for too long and lots of UK born people still take advantage.
-
Exactly, amongst other things. However it is clear Farage drew the ire of his own Leave team with that poster.
-
Checking the bookies this morning odds have swung further towards Remain, I really think its going to be close, a few days back I thought Leave were pretty much on the money to win but Farage's poster amongst other things has really derailed that momentum.
-
Agreed, the pace at which the ball is passed around is shocking. Only when Rooney came on did he try to speed things up. Players like Henderson will only slow the game down and bring England down. Lallana had a good game but Wilshire demonstrated all 12 months of his lack of game time. This obsession with playing players out of form, lacking practice, also some like Henderson who are clearly not good enough but will end up with 50 England caps will always take us down and never win a tournament.
-
We have to play players in their correct positions, we have to stop picking players that havent payed all season but Roy fancies the look of, we need to pick in form players and not players we hope might just turn it on randomly in a tournament, we need to stick with consistent teams and stop efffing around switching 5 or 6 out at a time - its all basic stuff, how can 'professionals' get it so wrong?
-
Really, we were just one 92nd minute goal from exiting this tournament at the group stages, just like last time. It sounds horrible but the sooner the old faces at the FA die off and stop sticking with Yes Men managers we might actually make the most of the talent we have.
-
Just shows how poor Russia are and what a mess Roy made of that game.

Did this with some mates last year, utterly brilliant experience, feels like you are in the movies... http://zombieexperiences.co.uk/encounters/secret-bunker/

We could have knocked it about all day 40 yards from their goal and still not scored. What winds me up is apparent 'experts' like Hoddle saying how we dominated the game, but we didn't, it suited Slovakia down to the ground, their keeper barely had to make a save second half. Thats the inherent issue with England managers is that they cannot see the issues slap bang in front of their faces. ...and as for the lack of anyone in the team who can take a free kick or corner without hitting the first man. Farce.
-
Well another shoddy performance, messing around with a team unnecessarily. As a manager with these players he should be battering some teams, we have a seriously sub standard manager, as soon as we get knocked out when we play some one decent we can finally move him on.
-
Have you got under it yet? Looks great having a complete undertray there! Tullet is a good exhaust
-
Like the rear diffuser, always sets these cars off nicely. Replacement front grille also - both set off the front and back. What exhaust is it running?

Not that you want to read much into it, but it is quite funny, but by all accounts Nissan and suing the leave campaign for misrepresentation. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/business-36573766
