Re: Just for VNA a brexit thread - YamFazFan - 25-01-19
Well you'd have to be daft to say otherwise. In that 'interview' he doesn't name a specific law that he objects to for sure. Like I say, he's a poor spokesman for Brexit and I suspect that it has been edited in Remains favour.

Do you? Other than, what was it daylight running lights? Oh, that was Fazersharp, I think.
Any more for my list?

Quote: Yes he's a lefty. Why is that a problem?No. As long as it's law abiding.
Some people hold law abiding Conservative views. Is that a problem?.
Not at all, but I don't understand why 'lefty' was being used as an insult :rolleyes
Especially when the 'left' has given you:
The NHS
Free education
The minimum wage
Trade Union bargaining rights
etc
And the 'right' has recently given us :
Austerity
Deportation of valid British citizens
Failing privatised railways
Tax breaks for the rich
..... and of course Brexit

Oh dear oh dear you are so blinkered by anything that is not on the left that you have completely missed it. The insult levied wasn't calling him a lefty, it was calling him "little" so quick to be triggered - is it cold in here - I think I have just seen a snowflake.

Did you note Tim Martin at 04.00 onwards.
He won’t discuss the poverty wages paid in his pubs.
He calls Jones childish for asking such questions.
Re: Just for VNA a brexit thread - YamFazFan - 26-01-19
On Owen Jones's Wikipedia profile it says that he's expressed euroscepticism and advocated Brexit.
Good lad :thumbup

So, what have you got against little people, or are you using a random insult generator?
Seen a snowflake? Be careful, especially if you don't ride in the rain :b

Re: Just for VNA a brexit thread - fazersharp - 27-01-19
Its just been announced that Dyson is the 3rd highest tax payer in the UK at £127.8M. Like I pointed out earlier he is still a UK tax payer.
What is strange is that remainers seem to rejoice if a company says they are moving and if that move is damaging then better it is in their eyes. And leavers are accused of cutting off their noses to spite their faces.
After a NO deal lets see those companies crawling back to the UK because at the moment the deal says that the UK CAN NOT set better/more competitive company tax environments than that of the EU. After a NO deal we will be free to create more competitive environments than the EU has.In or out these companies do not care about the man on the street, so when remainers cheer them when they announce they are moving they are kicking the leavers when they should be kicking the companies.

Quote: Its just been announced that Dyson is the 3rd highest tax payer in the UK at £127.8M.I think you mean 'was' the 3rd highest tax payers. Not when his HQ is in Singapore he won't be.
'Rejoice' also isn't the right word. You mean 'Despair' with a hint of 'I told you so'.
Also how many times do we have to say 'No Deal' just isn't going to happen. A majority of MPs (of all parties) are too sensible to let it happen.
Meanwhile Jacob Rees-Mogg asks the Queen to suspend Parliament if 'No Deal' is voted down. So what type of democracy is he in favour of then? Not Parliamentary democracy obviously. And we all know what happened to the last monarch who suspended parliament :eek
Re: Just for VNA a brexit thread - VNA - 27-01-19
Quote:Its just been announced that Dyson is the 3rd highest tax payer in the UK at £127.8M.That is as an individual.
Quote:Like I pointed out earlier he is still a UK tax payer.And if resident in the UK will continue to be so. However, as a majority shareholder in Dyson, his tax bill in the UK will now be slashed as his company has moved to Singapore.
Quote:What is strange is that remainers seem to rejoice if a company says they are moving and if that move is damaging then better it is in their eyes.Just because we are correct, does not mean to say we take any pleasure in job losses etc, after all we are just as likely to lose our jobs a result of BREXIT as anybody else. Nor do I take any pleasure whatsoever in being poorer as a result of the BREXIT referendum – I can assure you!
Quote:After a NO deal we will be free to create more competitive environments than the EU has.I think we would be better trying to get the great many companies who dodge their taxes to actually pay them, rather than drop the rates that so many don’t pay. Of course the EU is already looking at legislation aimed at stopping companies from ducking their tax obligations. Which of course is one of the reasons that the super rich like Jacob Rees-Mogg want out.
Quote:In or out these companies do not care about the man on the streetSome do, some don’t. However, their legal obligation is to their shareholders. They also exist to make a profit, and indeed can only survive and succeed in the long term if they turn a profit. At the end of the day if there was a NO DEAL BREXIT (still a possibility, albeit an increasingly remote one) companies like Toyota, Honda, Nissan will leave the UK along with a host of other manufacturing companies. The reason companies like Toyota, Honda and Nissan came to the UK was to avoid import quotas and tariffs. They set up shop here so they could manufacture inside the EU single market.

Re: Just for VNA a brexit thread - mtread - 27-01-19
Because of our very slack labour laws and destruction of the unions?
