Are you drinking? Sure sounds like it. :(

Please - show us the “proof” that if the UK leaves the EU, without some sort of deal, it would cost - how much - I can’t keep track - 8 million for somebody to move here? :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

How is that question any different from asking you for proof that if we leave without a deal, there will be no material cost in doing so ?

How many posts have you ever made here that do not include some kind of 'smiley' or 'lol' or 'winky' or such like ? I would guess its under 10% without doing any checking. Do you do this in the knowledge that to me and possibly others this seeming requirement to smile, laugh or smirk at your own posts comes across as inherently arrogant and big headed ?

He offered proof of his assertion that in a no deal situation it would cost somebody moving here from the UK - 8 million? ( :lol: ) I’m just intrigued to see it. He could be right.

Pyro keeps making these exorbitant claims, as though expecting people to just accept them at face value. When challenged there’s usually a very long technical explanation showing how it’s been taken the wrong way. That is - it’s all actually the challenger’s fault. :roll:

What smileys I use are really none of your business. Tough. You can interpret them - or not - as you wish. Personally, I couldn’t care less what other people use. Not being a hysterical type. :wink:

Like I said I don't appreciate people who try to hide behind their finger.
Nor do I appreciate confused people who ask about the cost of the Golden passports (for people of 3rd countries), and then forgetting what their own question was, ask for proof of something else.
For these reasons, and because I think you have the memory of a fish, you will have to exercise your brain by googling

why are you looking how much it will cost an idividual to move. who cares? look at how much it will cost to trade under wto.

simple facts even you should be able to undestand.

we pay the eu 1 billion a month to be in the eu and trade freely
with that we gat back about 250 million a month for helping deprived areas and farmers and such.
so that makes it we pay about 750 million a month.

now take yoyr trade of 290 billion a year and break it down to monthly figure. that makes it about 24 billion a moth. as we have no sector by sector how much trade there is and how much tax is applicable and we know that the tax rates vary from 5% to 50% depending on the sector, take 10% as an average and you get 2.4 billion a month.

so we have 0.75 billion paid by the government and we pay no tax
and we accept the government pay nothing but we pay 2.4 billion in taxes per month

you have to be pretty stupid not to see that it makes no economic sense to leave at all.

but hey if we could buy brains in a shop we wouldn't be in this mess. unfortunately the only brains available for the average sheepriots is sheep's brains

enjoy.

No!
It now "costs" 5 million plus another 3.



:lol: :lol: :lol:

You’re so full of it. Which is why I love your posts of course. Keep ‘em coming. :wink:


I repeat: So full of what?

If you don't have the guts to say it clearly, you are not worthy of my time.

So having done a quick check of your last 50 post Londonrake, some apology is in order in terms of my guessed degree to which you do this. It would appear that the number of times you have managed to post here without having to include the use of smug, self-satisfied. complacent, gloating, self-approving, self-congratulatory, disdainful, sneering, contemptuous or mocking emoticons is around 34% and not my guessed 10%. As to the other 66 % of your posts, well my point still stands. :wink: Having checked your first 50 post here as well the % appears remarkably consistent - again around 66% that contain your 'signature' use of smug (and all the rest) smileys and 34% that do not.
