You ought never to make judgements which will affect future generations on cyclical ups and downs, which the building industry is particularly affected by.

Leaving the EU will not only have a short term impact it will inflict long term damage to the UK, it's position in the world and our consequent economic prosperity. A true judgement won't be possible for 20 to 30 years from now during which time I see the UK breaking up with Scotland re-joining and enjoying significant economic success relative to England and Wales. I see the fight for a united Ireland resuming in earnest and a much greater probability of that happening as Eire will look a better prospect than England as an economy.

England will have no obvious role. It's financial services sector will largely emigrate to France and Germany. Back office functions to Scotland and Ireland. Manufacturing has already fled. Our innovators will still innovate but unless we become a low wage economy their products will not be made here. Do we really want to be a low wage economy?

We ought to remain a member but at the very least we need to remain, via a deal, aligned in the closest way possible to EU standards and no tariff barriers.

Those arguing we jump off the cliff edge with their eyes shut and their pockets full of nothing but optimism are nothing less than either stubborn donkeys or political opportunists willing to sacrifice their country for personal ambition.

This is why Parliament must, and I trust will, act to stop Bogus Johnson.

Well done for going it alone and best of luck for your future.

Cheers we're doing well. Not as thick as I come across on hear. Been told to practice my reading and writing and this is good because my son can edit it with me later on and I'll learn from it. Also it's palace so holds.my interest.

Must be doing something right, got a daughter starting uni in September.

Great start to the week. This post is probably going to be the most ludicrous thing I read this week. Thanks for cheering me up !!!
