Labour has gained in at least three polls just weeks before the general election, slashing the Tories' lead by as much as 10 points. Jeremy Corbyn’s party is up by four points in the last week to 30 per cent support, found Opinium, while a separate YouGov poll between 27 and 28 April found that Labour was up two points to 31 per cent – both figures contributing to a smaller gap between the Tories and the Opposition. A third poll for the Sunday Times showed the Tories had a 13-point lead with 44 percent of the vote, yet a YouGov poll gave the Tories a 23-point lead last week, showing a dip of 10 points. http://www.independent.co.uk/news/u...d=facebook-post

http://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/politics/labour-transgender-candidate-mp-sophie-cook-general-election-a7712286.html A Labour Party candidate standing in the forthcoming general election could become the first transgender MP in Parliament’s history. Sophie Cook, an RAF engineer turned TV presenter, will contest the seat of East Worthing and Shoreham, which has been held by the Tories for two decades. The 50-year-old equality campaigner, who has three children, began transitioning in 1998 but only came out in 2015.

I actually had empanadas on sunday, a beef one and an aubergine one and they were delicious. it saddens me that you can't get a 'proper' cornish pasty with a sweet corner in.

I don't know if any of you have tried to close a 'deal' as a business person, but let me tell you if one party thinks the sum should be £0, zero, zilch nothing and the other party believes it should be £XX,000 or higher then it's very difficult to meet in the middle. The British government so far are disagreeing that there is anything to pay at all for leaving the EU, not 'oh we need to agree on the amount' - they disagree that there is any amount to pay at all. That is not a good starting point for a negotiation.

Pissflaps posted:Thanks for the business insight Donald but this is clearly all just posturing from both sides. well the Tories are going to look pretty loving stupid when the UK has to pay a few (tens of?) billion quid then aren't they. there's a difference between posturing over an amount and stating publically that you don't have to pay a drat thing. it just shows that these negotiations - which lest we forget have to be conducted within two years - are going to be a poo poo show.

we're getting nothing back in return, these are the spending commitments that we've already committed to and that the EU has budgeted for. if we do not pay them, the EU either has to cut its spending or the member nations have to pick up the tab.

Pissflaps posted:Yes we are what do you think the money we send to the EU is for? we wont get anything back from the EU once we leave, especially if we've not paid our tab. I've heard nothing from the Tories along the lines of 'we'll agree a figure to pay and ensure that we continue to receive funding for EU programs we are a part of that have committed spending beyond our leaving the EU' Why would we receive EU funding for things once we've left? Unless we agree this as part of negotiations, but I've heard nothing from the Tories along these lines.

It is used for EU funding that has already been costed and accounted for by the other member states, if we decide to not pay what we have committed, the other states either have to cut back on this spending or fund it themselves. They will not be happy to do either. The point is less about the absolute correct details of this funding and more the spirit of it. The way the Tories are going about this so far seems to be the least constructive way possible. If we stiff the EU member states to the tune of billions of € or £ then are they really going to want to cut us favourable trade deals?

Also the comments of Junker et al with the May dinner demonstrate this, so far the EU does not think the UK has got real about the consequences of leaving and the complexities of the negotiations which have a hard deadline to be completed.

Pissflaps posted:Thats why instead of people being 'stiffed' a compromise will be found between the two positions of 'wanting to be paid lots' and 'wanting to pay nothing'. alternatively, it wont, we'll pay nothing and we'll get put on WTO tarrifs when we leave the EU without a deal because the Tories will repeat 'No Deal is Better than a Bad Dead' ad nauseum

knox_harrington posted:How much is the UK contribution to the EU budget? Think it's 9bn/year. The claim of a 100bn settlement is pretty extreme. http://www.bbc.com/news/uk-politics-eu-referendum-35943216 Gross payment of about £18bn in 2015, if it's a five year budget that we've agreed to you're up to nearly £100bn gross quickly.
