True... but also good for sugar farmers and processors in India and the Caribbean etc where many people have been driven to poverty, despair and suicide partly because of market manipulating EU trade policies.
I notice that the Daily Heil are throwing heavy guns towards various statistics coming out, which seem to show that the most high and most wonderful Brexit, maybe ain't. Stats on low wages, low growth, massive borrowing needed, and so on - all tantrums by Remainers, you see!
Tiny little Britain is much more likely to crash and burn out of the EU!
There was an interesting program about the positive side of Brexit a few weeks ago on Radio 4. The interview that caught my attention was with an executive of Tate and Lyle. He made a strong case that his company could do very much better post Brexit. Tate and Lyle mainly produce sugar from cane and the EU currently place quite high tariffs on the import of sugar cane while actually subsidise sugar beet production. If Britain abolished these restrictions on the import of sugar cane, Tate and Lyle could expand and create jobs (his argument went). Of course (as the interviewer pointed out) this would not be good for other sugar producers OR the farmers who grew the beet.A point that occurred to me (but apparently not the interviewer) was that if we are to really go down the free-trade route, the logical thing to do would be to have a whole lot more processing done overseas close to the source of the product where labour is cheaper. Much better for Tate and Lyle's profits - not so good for the rest of the UK.
died out because they ceased to be competitive.
I think you will find out that dinosaurs did not cease because of their lack of competitiveness
Dinosaurs haven't died out! - I can see several flying around outside right now.
I was talking about the big ones which the word 'dinosaur' symbolically refers to.
Spoof'Dinosaur' refers to the state of your lot, i.e. dying out fast.
I belong to a few groups which are supposed to be dying out fast and some actually are......which one are you referring to?
You're pro EU and religious. That's two that are dying out.
Dear oh dear, Mr Hammond is ,according to brexiteers, being a bit gloomy about Brexit.But isn't it brexiteers duty to be upbeat about brexit?What they need is a jolly looking frontman who can tell a joke or two and with a track record of being able to belt out a patriotic song with great gusto.Who else but John Redwood?
Not looking at the demographics Jack.
Nor are you.The demographics suggest that religiosity (and in particular christianity) will decline in the UK, as is has been doing for decades. The demographics also suggest, for similar reasons that the proportion brexiters in the population will decline too as both brexiters and adherents to religion in the UK tend to be disproportionately old.
This is so funny .Thanks for cheering me up!
When last I looked the world was not just the UK.. You got some kind of 'brexit of the intellect' or something?
But nonetheless if we want to talk about the world, then fine, and you are still wrong. It is of course very difficult to assess trends in religiosity world-wide but the most respected longitudinal study - the Gallup Global Index on Religiosity and Atheism - shows that the proportion of people saying they are religious worldwide is declining - down 9% over a 7 year period to the last survey in 2012 - with balancing increases in the proportion saying they aren't religious and are atheist.
Dear Prof,All very nice and Dandy but the question still remains ( has done for a number of years ) what are you replacing theism with?Gonnagle.
