To educate you:That's deliberately manipulating my response (and you know it). You also know that in the EU we were unable to stop the export of livestock or the import of various animal products. I didn't suggest people were force fed like geese, rather that we can now ban imports of low animal welfare products. I have quite a good understanding of the laws in this area thank you. I was only trying to suggest a positive of leaving the EU. People who treat animals badly also tend to do the same to people, just a thought.

What he’s ‘moaning’ about has no impact on him at all. He’s completely right about what he’s saying re the impact on farmers today. It’s a woeful policy. We should be backing British farming to the hilt.Jeremy Clarkson is whinging because he isn’t getting his way for once.
Nature is healing.
Deliberate fearmongering to lessen the actual noise when it landed. Simple tactic.looks like quite alot of the fear in run-up was exaggerated. unless you're a small business, which will feel the pain of the lower NI threashold.
much being made about £40bn raise, though after the headline Employers NI i dont see the tax rises to cover half of this amount. are they exaggerating that too?
How do you mean Harry, I thought lots of countries have free health care?By charging.
There is no equivalent to the NHS.
You should say that to the big 4 supermarket chains that drive down farmers prices in order to maximise their profits.What he’s ‘moaning’ about has no impact on him at all.

Why can’t you be saying it to both?You should say that to the big 4 supermarket chains that drive down farmers prices in order to maximise their profits.
I was patched up in Canada too. But I paid for health insurance. It was cheap for me at the time (as a student) but this is an optional payment that, without paying results in loss of on-demand healthcare.How do you mean Harry, I thought lots of countries have free health care?
I have been patched up after several football injuries over the last few years without charge here is good old Australia.
I hate to break the news to you but you have just lectured yourself:To educate you:
There have been a number of campaigns against live animal exports for slaughter on welfare grounds; and concern about cases such as that of 40 sheep that were euthanised in 2012 at the Port of Ramsgate following transport problems. In the case that followed the High Court ruled that the Port could not ban live animal exports, on the grounds of freedom of movement within the EU and existing UK legislation.

Enjoy the match!
No… you’re wrong.Not a great outcome for you, however I would question the financial standing of a company that changes recruitment policy off the back of a 2% employer NI rise, in the long run this may be a blessing
Good luck anyway
I see what you mean, yes we pay for Medicare though our taxes but it is free at the point of need.I was patched up in Canada too. But I paid for health insurance. It was cheap for me at the time (as a student) but this is an optional payment that, without paying results in loss of on-demand healthcare.
No countries have free health care. Some have state run insurance (I think Germany does this). Others are private insurance only (USA) with some charity bits and bobs depending on area. Even in the UK arguably it is not 'free' as 'working people' pay for it out of their earning related taxes*.
*Which probably defines a working person.
Indeed.I see what you mean, yes we pay for Medicare though our taxes but it is free at the point of need.
And we also have health insurance for those that want it.
The markets disagree with you.Tax and spend, lies and broken trust - this must be historically the worse budget in living history
I've just found the Private Eye article I read about this and the OBR said that ending the 5p fuel duty cut and raising it with inflation would raise £4.9b per year from 2024 to 2029. Even the RAC were in favour of it, because suppliers are fleecing us (as the Competition and Markets Authority have found). The fuel duty freeze benefits rich drivers of gas guzzlers who drive furthest more than poorer, more frugal drivers while rail and bus fares go up. It's economically, environmentally & equitably illiterate.Whilst raising bus fares, not the right thing to do IMHO
While the UK was in the EU we could not ban the export of live animals, that was the part I highlighted. Freedom of movement meant that we did not have the power to block the shipment of animals from Ramsgate.I hate to break the news to you but you have just lectured yourself:

And you continue to appear to have lost the plot.
We. Did. Not. Get. A. Brexit. Win. From. Being. Released. From. An. EU. Obligation. To. Export. Live. Animals.
We. Have. Always. Had. The. Power. To. Block. That.
If. We. wanted. To. Do. So.
Apparently. We. Didn't. Care.
And. Didn't. Bother.
So. Your. One. And. Only. Brexit. 'Win'. Is. Bollocks.
