That's what it's about because UK and Ireland have said no way will a hard border return. Despicable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But it's not. It's a very heartfelt and emotional lesson on what the GFA means to those who were in the thick of it. The fact you term it "despicable" says absolutely nothing good about you at all. In fact I would call it a truly shameful response. But then you're a brexiteer..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Freggyragh Posted January 23, 2019 Share Posted January 23, 2019 (edited) How ironic: Reads like personal profile for: #woodyfacts Edited January 23, 2019 by Freggyragh 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Freggyragh Posted January 23, 2019 Share Posted January 23, 2019 If you’re starting to wonder how on earth anyone thinks Brexit is worth it, have a look at the link below. The Brexit message is this; standards of living are falling, so blame the EU, blame immigrants, blame universal credit claimants, blame Guardian readers, blame ‘snowflakes’ or whoever, but do not blame it on successive governments prioritising investment in failed banks and illegal wars instead of vital services. UK politicians have enabled a system wherein taxes are for the little people. We all know that that is the truth. Now, if only something could be done about that ... If Brexit ever happens and, if it turns out to not be a complete disaster, then fine. If it does, no need to apologise, but you will have the moral obligation to make sure these laws get enacted in the U.K. too ... that really would bring millions upon millions to the NHS. https://ec.europa.eu/taxation_customs/business/company-tax/anti-tax-avoidance-package/anti-tax-avoidance-directive_en 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We all know that that is the truth. Now, if only something could be done about that .. Totally agree. But this is not the doing of the UK government, and not within the ability of the EU to solve. It is a function of globalisation; the release of naked, unregulated capitalism to do its worst and devil take the hindmost. A worldwide race to the bottom. It will continue unless and until there is a worldwide, co-ordinated move to country by country reporting and accounting for taxation accordingly. Bring it on. (But don't hold your breath.)

Jacob Rees-Mogg's investment company relocates some of its operations to Dublin to proof itself against Brexit fallout. Brexiteer's poster boy, the great British innovator Mr Dyson relocates his HQ and tax base to Singapore. Although it's nothing to do with Brexit, naturally. Hypocritical, self-serving , the lot of them. Interestingly, Mr Dyson was one of those so-called experts who wanted the UK to join the Euro back in 2003, when it suited him. I’d take any of these chancers with a pinch of salt. Mervin King in particular. In 2007, on the eve of the ‘credit crunch’ financial crisis his BofE report said financial stability risks ‘appeared to be low’. He’s now predicting No-Deal Brexit won’t be catastrophic. http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/business/1008512.stm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Link please...The idea is to attract ships to the EU members' registers and is active and being encouraged. When the schemes are approved they are given a life as it were of many years. Cyprus is very popular. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So the UK has a hard Brexit and no FTA with both the EU and Singapore hence Dyson hedges bets as apparently HQ and two directors going to Singapore...for the time being.
