You obviously think you will win even with the knowledge that we will be in the Schengen area and will be forced to adopt the Euro should we be allowed to re-join. It seems to me that those wanting a return to the EU not only think it was a bad idea to leave but in reality believe there is no circumstance where we could leave no matter what Brussels inflicted on us with majority voting. Is such an organisation a little dangerous. We voted to join the Common Market not what the organisation became and when given the choice we voted out. The EU like any other such organisation wants more and more power until it will eventually kill itself.
But the problem stems from the fact while taxable the state pension is not taxed at source. That is no tax is paid during the tax year and will have to be paid as a lump sum should the state pension exceed the tax free allowance. So its self assessment or the IR sending payment demands to all receiving only the state pension.
The tax allowance is £12750 and the state pension is about £11500. Now while the state pension is taxable it is not taxed at source (like PAYE). Hence any pensioner receiving only the state pension does not in effect pay any tax. Without any change the state pension will eventually exceed the free pay allowance. Which will lead to every state pensioner with no other income having to fill in a self assessment form with the extra burden on the IR at the end of the tax year. Unless the free pay allowance increases in the near future this plan was inevitable whoever gets in.
Again you are saying Cameron should not have called the referendum but have not said why. The only conclusion is that you know better than the great unwashed. Maybe you think only a select group including you of course should decide who runs the country.
“ the pro Brexit campaign was riddled with promises that have never been nor will ever be realised, and people fell for those promises.”
That point of view is interesting. You are blaming Cameron for holding a EU referendum but the result showed a majority wanted out. So in your words the public should not have been given the chance to vote. Maybe in the future some government may adopt that attitude.
Obviously true but would he not be guilty of stopping a goal scoring opportunity no different from a defender handling on the line. I’ve often wondered about this generally if a keeper handles from a back pass that stops the ball going over the line. Maybe the fact it is only penalised by an indirect free kick changes the situation.
Really agree with that. We know how poor referees are but as you say other teams seem to be able to take advantage of it. It’s almost like they check out the referee before the game whereas we do not.
“ If you'd have asked fans if we would like to be four points clear of relegation zone with 5 games to go when Marti took over I'm pretty sure everyone would say yes.”
Of course we would but you have to take into account where we were at the time. Yesterday we had the chance to pull clear the fact we did not take it and put in such an abject performance gives a different perspective to being 4 points clear.
Sorry if I misunderstood but I read your post to say the while Leicester or any team were in the Premier League the FL could take those years as being in the Championship once they were relegated
