Obama seems likely to win, but it’s going to be a bit close.

It can easily be a situation where Romney gets more votes, but Obama wins, as happened in 2000, when Bush won the election despite having less votes than Al Bore. That’s the way the US electoral system works (I actually think it’s a good system for the US)

I’m not too keen on Obama,…[Read more]

that’s not really answering the point, terry.All you’re doing is telling me that some people support and some oppose the EU – not saying anything we don’t know..

You don’t even get that right.

Clegg and Cameron are actually in deep disagreement over the EU. Clegg is very strongly pro-EU, as you know. The Lib Dems have long been keen…[Read more]

These blanket stats tell us sweet fa when it comes to the advantages and disadvantages of EU membership.

well, you said Labour’s attitude to the EU was changing.

That’s not how I read it, as both Milibands stress that Labour is still pro-EU.

Labour also opposed the Maastricht Treaty in the early 90’s under John Smith on the same opportunistic basis. Smith was more strongly pro-EU than most in his party, but he took a political calcuation. Miliband…[Read more]

We make a loss out of Europe, importing far more than we export. Our monthly trade deficit with EU nations is £5 billion so to suggest we actually need to trade with the EU to make a living is grossly misleading.

so what’s the new view, panda? Are Labour and UKIP now agreed, on the basis of terry’s blanket economic illiteracy about the balance of trade??

I know that David Miliband has hailed Labour’s vote as a sign that Labour is now coming round to accepting deep cuts in state spending – deeper than the Tories??

Ed Miliband, having used the unions to…[Read more]

Economically, I don’t want to wander into poverty dressed only in a Union Jack.

If we left the EU – and this is, for the first time since we joined, a possibility – then 46 preferential trade agreeemnts will be cancelled. It’s estimated that it will take us up to 10 yrs to get these renegotiated, and this time from a weaker postion. That is a…[Read more]

I’m finding it hard to deal wiht this thread – it’s not been easy for a while, tbh.

thanks Jen – interesting on what you call ‘the zone’ (reminds me of the Tarkovsky movie, Stalker, where teh Zone is declared off limits by the government, yet stalkers take people there; in the Zone their deepest, most heart-felt desire is met, though it’s not always what they expect).
