    bobq do you really believe that without any facts
    stop reading newspapers, come on

    I never said it was fact, it is a statement of opinion with which I agree. There are many factual analyses that have been posted on this thread that support this view.

    make your own mind up..

    sorry..
    Have a look at the graph and compare it with the other graphs you may have seen on the threads,
    you might conclude that someone, somewhere is not telling the whole truth.

    And the source of this is?

    I think prosaver is drunk most of the time he's on here.

    It would explain the bizarre capriciousness, inability to stick to a single line of thought, inability to master the basics of using a keyboard and the abusive nature of most of her posts.

    Oh well, I don't care. We get all sorts of idiots on here. I ignore them or put them on ignore. Life's too short.

    You should care if you want a leave result.

    It's looking like the stay campaign is going to win so you need to persuade them rather than insult them.

    Also, after we've left and developed the necessary expertise, we'll be able to offer this same service to all the other countries wanting to leave.

    It's win win all the way. oregonian_winesmiley.gif

    When you try to sell this business idea to the Dragons on Dragons Den, and Duncan says "I'm oot", is he negative on the idea or a fan of leave? ;)

    It's all so confusing!

    There have been plenty of studies referenced on this and other threads. Clearly they have not had any impact on you. For example:

    a 24 year old graph:D what is this a history lesson .????
    You sit down and I will get u the real facts ..

    The graph was relevant in the context of 1973, the year you mentioned when you said women stayed at home and I assumed you meant women with children as a lot of people think women with children didn't work when quite a number of them did. It might be a historical article but the numbers for 1973 won't have changed.


    The chart below is just an earlier version of the one you posted.....with a projection out to 2006.

    Most reports published using stats tend to use the same source and just because they are old doesn't make them wrong.
