    that there Mrs Gould shows that a little knowledge is a dangerous thing by stating that the 'Belgrano was on a bearing of 280' she obviously didn't know that 'bearing' is different to 'course' and that said vessel could well have been proceeding towards the Falklands exclusion zone on that bearing, and in the end what was her bloody point.

    Whatever the course of the Belgrano and regardless of whatever the bearing that it was on was the rest of the Argentinian surface plate ran home . To my simple limited mind and also lot of British sailors and soldiers came home because the Argentinian surface Fleet took cover so personally I don't care where it was press that button and blow it out of the water was the right decision

    Gulliver, yes there rae doubts in my mind about the outcome of EU/UK but with politicians involved I think we would all have doubts.

    Where do I stand, I sit on the fence just now which is giving me some grief, but let me put it this way and you can then decide which way I may have voted bearing in mind that I did n ot have all the facts before me.

    LIKE
    UK kept the Pound Sterling
    Trade between UK/EU without tariffs or embargos
    Free movement between UK/EU of GENUINE workers
    Common currency within EU making it easier for workers and travelers
    Strength in numbers in the event of international conflict, though the bit about Froggy being there is a worry

    DISLIKE
    No border control
    Laws made by others outside of UK many of which compromise the British way of life
    Influx of workers who may not be workers but rather bludgers
    Non UK persons benefiting from NHS, DHSS etc
    Non UK persons being housed ahead of locals
    Travel within EU without any paperwork to support who they are
    EU politician who no one knows from a bar of soap
    UK paying in to a system where some who pay almost nothing gain from it
    Rediculous laws regarding food ingredients, size and quality
    Inability for UK to negotiate free trade agreements as a single country

    That is where I am on this, now up to you Gulliver.
    Happy daze John in Oz.

    .........That is where I am on this, now up to you Gulliver.
    John up to me is it? Really?,I imagine you think of me as being such a Brexit Monster,Ha Ha!

    Well good for you,John . Sitting on fences can be quite uncomfortable though.
    Something about fence-sitters has always irritated ,nay sometimes infuriated me when it comes to important voting decisions like general elections and referendums(referenda?).In this country if it wasn't for the 'fence-sitters' ,and abstainers, we might have had ,then and now,a government that we should have had instead of the horrors we often have.Those same fence-sitters and abstainers are usually the first ones to complain after the result about the new government or decision they haven't even bothered voting for !

    I respect everyone's opinion John. Personally,I am just glad that Great Britain has decided to go for Brexit.Sitting on the fence means doing just that-absolutely nothing. That to me is just as bad as voting to not Leave .
    I wasn't one of those who were swayed by any particular argument of any party.I just knew ,as someone who I think to be of a reasonably normal sound intelligent mind and having lived 62 years , 43 years of them as part of the EEC/EU ,that I have always felt that we as a nation,and all the others,were being dictated to,controlled,abused,stifled by and yes,cheated by a growing monster of a bureaucracy.That is surely unnatural . I voted for change.This country is strong enough to go it alone and survive come what may.

    one good thing Davey the eu will do its best to try and make life hard for us after leaving but we British are at our best when our backs are against the wall. the eu have pushed the people to far and as I have said on this site many times when we push back they will not like it? today the French want to buy into our water why cant we invest in our own business invest in our own land not give it away to others why have foreign finger on our water valves its stupid? jp

    Just realized my dislikes out number my likes by two to one, no doubt some trick cyclist would be able to read something into that. As for reading when living in UK read the Daily Mail, no doubt the trick cyclist would also read something into that.
    But as to Britex, if that is what you want and feel is best for the nation then go for it with my blessing.
    But I will not pass scorn if things do not work out as well as you hope. I may instead sit with you all as you wail along with me.
    Happy daze John in Oz.
