It was a girl. You obviously didn't watch the programme.
The lass was trying to use data roaming as an example of EU co-operation. It wasn't a brilliant choice and, inevitably, she was shouted down and ridiculed by the outers.
There was an awfully well spoken blazer wearing young chap who took time to remind us that we still had the commonwealth and could trade with them. Pater looked on admiringly. :roll:

..............bearing in mind at the moment we need the approval of the EU to sanction any trade agreements we want to make with the commonwealth countries......which is a bigger market than the EU....

No, I didn't watch the programme and was told it was a young lad. Whether it was a lad or girl, still a great reason to stay!

Luckily, the commonwealth has a memory slightly longer than your average brit, and remembers how they were all ditched in the early 70s.

I do wonder if austerity is being blamed on immigrants along with house shortages the NHS under strain and low job prospects. The U.K. Gov can do a lot more to improve all these situations but are too busy creating a culture of money shortage in a money creation economy. Will some folks come 2020 with the country still in deep debt, targets missed by a country mile and more austerity planned actually have the balls to vote for change?

Still undecided as its c*nt5 who are saying remain & c*nt5 saying leave...cock & balls seems the likeliest outcome on the voting card :(

I don't really care how people vote, just as long as they vote. However, I would very much appreciate it if the referendum date could be brought forward so that the in or out debate can end. I'm fed up of the whole debate.

Either you have made your mind up already, or you will only make your mind up when your pen is poised over the ballot paper, so let's vote now. Please.

A reminder of why I want out. Blair's calamitous policy, no make that treacherous. How else to describe a policy that added up to three million people to our population in disastrously short order, mostly through uncontrolled, unnecessary and unwanted immigration?

This was a vile, cunningly devised scheme to rub the Rights nose in diversity and render their arguments out of date in the unguarded words of one of Blairs speechwriters. More simply: ship in all and sundry, they will always vote Labour, we will be in for life and never mind the consequences.

Many believe Blair should be put on trial for his role in taking us to what looks like an increasingly illegal war in Iraq. I would try him for allowing the country to be swamped with millions of new arrivals as, and this fact is absolutely vital to remember, it was not fair to anyone; not those who were already here, those who arrived or those who came along subsequently.

Communities felt they lost their identities, schools were filled to the point that giant cabins were quickly rushed into playgrounds to fit in all the children, many of whom could speak no English, and resentment quickly grew.

Hospital A & E units became crammed and swiftly (and often totally unfairly) immigrants were blamed for everything from the housing crisis to unemployment and crowded public transport to the faintly farcical idea that they were eating all our swans.

When do you suppose Tony or Cherie last sat in an NHS surgery to see their GP, or had to get another tasteless cup of coffee from a vending machine in a harshly lit hospital corridor as the hours waiting in Casualty ticked by. It is also unlikely their children will ever be on a housing list as the couple own eight mansions or homes.

For the author of this ghastly misfortune, any challenge to the maelstrom he deliberately and callously unleashed is repressive and reactionary. That is a stunning deceit to be perpetrated by a politician who was once said to be at one with the British working man and woman.

What this deluded and delusional one time political giant has failed to grasp is that it is those Labour voters who have helped Nigel Farage and his Ukip allies romp home in such style. This is not a party that just takes from the Tories, it can lure from Labour too.

Blairs final insult to those who voted Ukip is that they are closed-minded. However, it is perhaps instead you Mr Blair who have a mind totally closed, bolted and padlocked against any notion you got it wrong over immigration.

Just stick to counting your cash, flying around the world and your role as Middle East peace envoy. A role in which the tragic, continuing death toll is testament to your ability.
