Have to agree Dijsselbloem

[Old_Geezer]

IMO it is clear nonsense. Osborne takes one of the 'remain' doomsday scenarios for the economy going phut in order to claim a need to plan and apply more taxes, spend less on services. But the actuality will be minor disruption, and so this is simply not a need to do something but the threat to do so in the hope of frightening more to vote to stay put with the devil we know. Not a friendly warning but an intimidating tactic.

I think the dire daily threats that have gone from bad to worse have lost the ‘Remain’ camp a great deal of support. People don’t like being intimidated - and they don’t like being treated as fools.

[Svejk]

He must be relying on Labour MPs to vote for more austerity.
Strange that the Remainers didn't announce all these dire warnings near the start of the campaign. One might think they are becoming desperate.

[ToraToraTora]

more scare tactics from and increasingly desperate remainiac camp. Vote remain or we'll hike taxes doesn't get any more "I'm going home and taking my football with me" than that does it? He knows he'll have his legs chopped out before he gets anywhere near putting and EMG budget together. I have thought all along that the remainiacs would win this but these increasingly desperate outpourings make me think brexit has a chance.

Talbot....who is your new avatar please ?

[-Talbot-]

Changing the topic with your first post mikey?

Will Labour back him?


She is a human rights activist and a realist.

[-Talbot-]

colleague's

[ToraToraTora]

she's a realist? mikey wouldn't know her then!

[anneasquith]

Is this the news section or, let's take the opportunity to insult other abers section ?

[Old_Geezer]

Ayaan Hirsi Ali ?

[mikey4444]

Talbot...why such an ill-tempered response to such a polite question ?

[mikey4444]

anneasquith...its all indicative of the increasingly childishness of some debates on here.

[youngmafbog]

Might be because you still have not answered tge question Mickey?

The Remainiacs are now in tge position of tge biy who cried Wolf. Some of the veiled threats have been preposturous making Dave and Gideon look like Public school bullies.

Dave should buy himself a pugs head and dissapear to a dark corner.(not a oark or he will end up on a certain register!).

[-Talbot-]

Ill tempered?
Don't be so precious and ridiculous, mikey.
The response comes straight from your back catalogue, you are always telling posters to stick to the topic yet you often digress ... c'mon hands up!

[mikey4444]

Bye Bye Talbot !

[-Talbot-]

What an absolute child.

[ludwig]

I was interested to see that we've now moved on from scaremongering to straightforward threats.

Perhaps the next thing will be posters of Osborne holding a gun to a kitten's head with the slogan 'Vote remain - or Tiddles gets it' underneath.

They've really learnt nothing from the Scottish referendum, when such tactics proved counter-productive. Naomi is right. People don't like being patronised or bullied, and react against it.
