There is no doubt that when it comes to creating a jpeg and then copying and pasting it into an online forum, you are the master
Well you definitely prove the old saying 'an empty head makes the most noise',as well as knowing nothing about types of images.

...are you trying to score points based on the fact you didn't use a JPG but used a PNG? Geeky, but also pretty desperate

EU Referendum spend......Leave ( £13,436,241 ).....Remain ( £19,070,566 )
A month before the vote, Remain set up 5 new campaigns and spread £1m of taxpayers money throughout these new campaigns to deliberately stay under the spending limit.
Remain spent £9m of taxpayers money on campaign literature, distributing to every household in the country, under the guise of information. This amount also included £3m of taxpayers money on online advertising and digital promotion.
If Leave are being scrutinised about collusion, then Remain need to be examined even more closely for misappropriation of public funds and even more extensive collusion, involving constant conferencing and messaging with outside bodies, data sharing and governmental pressure toward suppliers and campaign material/literature.
There are two sides to this story.

Are you an echo,or just trying to protect your pet idiot?

They were also very expensive.They cost Remain the referendum,as the 'facts' in there were shown to be pure fabrication.Nobody believed a word they said after that.

Been waiting ever such a long time for you to add anything whatsoever to this thread,apart from your usual hearsay and 'facts' without any back-up to them.looks like I'm still waiting.
Maybe he could make up some bullshit to make himself look better? Maybe he could out-and-out lie about who he drinks with? Maybe he could give some vague and misleading statements so he looks more clever and cultured than he actually is? Or maybe he could just ignore your nonsense?

One has to chuckle at [MENTION=14132]Two Professors[/MENTION] trying to make out he’s a patron of classical music
I wonder if he discussed this with his mate Bryan Robson over a few pints?
I suspect it was the former Waffen SS he drinks with that gave him the inside track on German Orchestral capabilities.

The post you were replying to didn't even mention the south east! It did however refer to those poorer parts of the country that had a high Leave vote, very often (and uncontroversally) known as the Brexit Heartlands. Your effort to imply that Sussex is a Brexit Heartland isn't remotely offensive. Daft maybe, and perhaps typical, but certainly not offensive.

Not sure what facts they were. Scare stories yes facts no

I dug out the actual document. Looking at it again I think it's pretty factual and not really the 'Project Fear' stereotype. I guess the challenge would be for Leavers In particular to identify the falsehoods. I'm not sure if there's anything there that could rival the slogan on the Leave campaign's bus for being dubious. However, it's quite interesting to revisit this stuff now whichever of the two trenches you occupy.

May hinted that the government has now realised that setting up new customs arrangements after Brexit could take longer than expected.
This is what she said in response to a question from the Conservative Nicky Morgan, who said HM Revenue and Customs told her Treasury committee that a new customs partnership with the EU could take five years to set up.
We are looking at different potential customs arrangements for the future in order to deliver on the commitments that we have made. We are now the point at being able to look in more detail with the European commission at some of those proposals. And I think it is fair to say that, as we get into the detail and as we look at these arrangements, then what becomes clear is that sometimes the timetables that have originally been set are not the timetables that are necessary when you actually start to look at the detail and when you delve into what it really is that you want to be able to achieve.

Farage is also starting the push Brexit ahead of keeping Northern Ireland part of Britain.

He's right though, A united Ireland would solve a lot of problems and save a lot of money and I think most people would not be unhappy to see the south and the north united.

No pet, just trying to separate those with genuine responses and those trying to score easy points. I think I have my answer.

Most Brits never visit NI or understand what the troubles were all about
This would sh1t on half the population of Northern Island. It would cause a load more problems that it would solve
It would at least enact the promise of the Act of 1920 to re-unite Ireland though.
