If we vote for Brexit what happens

mayonnaise

LBC's James O'Brien, spot on, as usual:

"We're post-truth now...what's Mr Farage doing? Having a little march to the Supreme Court to complain about British judges enacting British laws in British courts.

"Truly we are down the rabbit hole!"

"He says to remind people what they voted for. I appreciate your core support is a little bit flaky pal, but I don't think anyone's forgotten what they voted for.

"It's quite incredible. Yet we're all still standing alongside, going: 'Oh, I wonder why this is happening.'

"I'm not wondering why this is happening. I know why this is happening. Same reason it's happened throughout history. You take angry people who feel like they're not getting a fair deal, give them a false target for their fury and just sit back and watch the whole place burn down."

House price inflation hits three-year low, says Halifax

It fell to 5.2% in the year to the end of October, down from 5.8% in the previous month.
House price inflation has nearly halved since hitting a peak of 10% in March this year, the Halifax said.

"This expected slowdown appears to have been largely due to mounting affordability pressures, which have increasingly constrained housing demand," said Halifax's chief housing economist, Martin Ellis.
"Whilst house price growth may ease further in the coming months, very low mortgage rates and a shortage of properties available for sale should help support price levels."

Last week, the Nationwide said its survey had found house price inflation easing to 4.6% a year.

On a monthly basis, the Halifax figures show house prices jumping by 1.4% during October alone, the largest increase since March this year. However, monthly measures are notoriously volatile

I am not sure Brexiteers would care, except that with more unemployment in Ireland Irish workers will want to come to...?

I think it indicates what might happen in the European Council - really is Ireland just going to sit stum while it's exporters are effected to the downside?

LBC's James O'Brien, spot on, as usual:

Got to be most hated Man in Britain, his mix of daily lies and arrogance is toxic.


I listen to LBC day and night and the other presenters have the good grace and confidence to in general hear out opposing opinions, but like all arrogant Liberals O'Brien will not allow all views and evidence to filter through, he's basically a grown-up student, pathologically incapable of absorbing facts and evidence, but claims the superior moral high ground of course.


The other week he kept saying he was here to save people with facts (Brexit), a terrified remainer completely unable to see the many benefits, giving a one sided doom account based around Marmite.


His idea of truth is just incredible. For example he daily cites the fact less than 1% of claimants are caught for benefits fraud as evidence less than 1% cheat! Akin to saying less than 0.1% of drivers use their phone while driving as that's how many are fined. Staggering naivity

One thing I noticed yesterday is that although any article 50 deal requires ratification by the European Council (and EU parliement) it only requires a qualified majority rather than unanimity. Smaller countries, like Ireland, are proportionally over represented too.

The other thing I noticed was that 80% of Council decisions are based on a qualified majority. It's a load of guff that nothing can happen because everything requires the agreement of all members.

Brexit EU-UK trade negotiations will be 'very tough': WTO chief

"As far as the WTO is concerned, we don't come into the picture until those two have decided what the commitments they will have with the other WTO members will be and with each other. Until then, when they come to the WTO and say, 'this is my new list of commitments'…at that point in time we then step in."
"Until then it will be a bilateral conversation that will be very complex."

I like how he cuts through the BS, calls a spade a spade and makes short shrift of all those bumbling bigots and xenophobes dialing in. Just love it!

several ladies labour MPs have been similarly threathened for not supporting Corbyn: your condemnation of momentum and Corbyn supporters has been strangly quiet

Maybe you hold rich investment brokers in higher regard than female labour MPs and in greater need of your protection

And which pro Corbyn newspaper incited that? Where were their faces printed with ENEMIES OF THE PEOPLE beneath?

I am well aware that some people are idiots, Brexit has proved that, you aren't suppose to actively incite idiots to behave idiotically.

Your justifications and apologies for your depressing UKIP movement increasingly rings like a cracked bell.

Farage's hundred thousand moron march will be blocked before it gets to the end of the first street corner, so don't pack too many sandwiches before you set off.
