F*ck me get on with it. Everyone knows you're going to come out with something fairly meaningless that you'll hail as a triumph before your Cabinet members start scratching each other's eyes out from now until all eternity. [Post edited 19 Feb 2016 20:22]

A referendum following 3 months of reasoned debate and analysis, which would include some rational analysis of what the future outside of the EU would actually look like.
Not dog whistle politics and pointless arguments over foreigners and benefits which are so far at the margins of what is actually being decided here as to be hardly worth mentioning.
But we won't get that. Which is why it's a bad idea. This is a massive, massive decision which will have an impact on generations to come. And it's not about whether child benefit is paid at local country indexed levels from 2020. |
Do you think it's pointless to be concerned that well over a million people came to Europe last yr and no doubt that number will be higher this year ?
As for reasoned debate- there probably has never been such a thing even at general elections but we still have them. |  |

In the context of the decision being made on 23 June, yes. Absolutely. |  | | |

Jean Claude junker is definitely a socialist. The guy who was there before him who's name escapes me but he was vaguely Spanish sounding was a proper communist. |
Junker is right wing, the biggest group in the European Parliament is right wing.
PS his predecessor was right wing as well. [Post edited 21 Feb 2016 16:35]

Ur not really- people aren't really interested in geo political issues- such as what Russia may think.
Even at a local level the EU has proven unable to help the British steel industry in places like port talbot and Redcar. In response to ecb. [Post edited 21 Feb 2016 16:45]

Out for me, my young daughter brought home the names of her classroom to make Xmas cards and more than half the class were from the Eastern part of Europe. More Eastern Europeans seem to popping up at work as well. It's just a massive strain on our public services and I have also been reading too many conspiracy about it's in the elite's interest to keep the Euro, so it will be easier to achieve their New World Order with microchip population etc. |  |

We have crap public services because we choose not to invest in them. It is the whole core of the the current scabrous 'business' driven consensus, added to ensuring that the richest 1% get even richer.
Public services can't cope full stop. Not because of eastern europeans, or shall we call them by their proper name, people like us who through an accident of birth were born in eastern europe and want to do the best for their families. Take them all away and public services would still be crap. Blame the cause, not the symptom. | |

Well... in my son's class there are additional resources brought in to manage children with no English knowledge at age 9. Even with those, the teacher's time is still being taken up there. Each year, Eastern European children are present then leave within a few months, going onto a different school.
Regardless of resourcing levels, that's not ideal for anybody, including those kids. |  |

I agree that language issues are a serious problem (not just for east europeans), but this kind of stuff is an example of the utterly spurious and marginal arguments that will be spouted to stir up mass pavlovian emotional response, as Jacko says earlier. | |

Stir up ? It's an important issue and should be raised.
You say it's a serious problem then go on and call it "spurious and marginal " so what is it ? Serious problem or a marginal issue ? | |

Our for me also.
As a Welsh nationalist I have always leant towards a European bias, seeing a stronger Wales under the umbrella of Europe.
Quite honestly I've had a gutsful now of the extreme difficulties caused by the immigration question in Europe
Personally I want extreme measures to be imposed with border controls, benefits etc. I'm sure under most questions it will make more sense to stay in Europe, for me though the prevailing question is border security and sending half of the illegal immigrants in the UK back to where they came from.
Sorry but enough is enough. |  |

There are only big repercussions about him because he's managed to make a big media fuss about it.
He plays the media beautifully. A thoroughly nasty piece of work, who manages to persuade people he's a likeable eccentric. Nothing could be further from the truth. | | | |

I'd agree that it's something that can be overplayed; I can only comment on my son's experience. I'd also caveat by pointing out we'd had regular trouble with the school, mostly over the way they mishandled primary care for our disabled son.
The problem however is that where some children take up more than proportional time in class, it's affecting all the children. The previous head at the school indeed blamed the school's poor performance upon the fact the school has a large number of transitional pupils as she put them. The fact a large number of the teachers aren't really that good to begin with was original.
So whilst it's an easy problem to point fingers at it's not just one source using the reality for their own agenda. | |
