Andromeda To Collide With The Galaxy In August If We Leave The E U....

[ToraToraTora]

Scientists have confirmed that leaving the EU will cause such a ruction in the space time continuum that, Andromeda will collide with the galaxy, but mainly UK, in August rather than previously thought, 4 billion years time.

///our employment tights may suffer,///
only if we work in the circus, gromit.
It's a fallacy anyway, for most people. All these 'rights' only apply to people sucking on the state teat. In private industry, these 'rights' just push more and more people into zero hours and agency work.
Who can blame them? If you had to employ people and follow all these rules, a) You'd go bankrupt. b) You'd blow a gasket and strangle some bolshy twerp waving the 'rulebook' in your face.
Anyhoo, If we wanted to create mad, job-stifling employment rules, I think you'll find a British government will be well up to that job.

As for the Labour Party's betrayal of the working classes(again), you'll find out where that leads at the next general election.

Since the debate is across party lines it is difficult to put specific plans for an independent UK.

Plus, of course, one can not know for sure how other countries and markets will react, in which direction, and for how long. But we do know we did ok before the EEC, and that no intelligent country is going to want to disrupt it's own economy any more than they need, so it is a reasonable view that things will fairly much continue as near to the present as possible as companies continue to trade with companies that want their products and/or services. All have an incentive to put together any replacement contracts needed so that isn't going to be artificially dragged out.

Markets may hiccup for a short while but the world is as economically valid on exit as it would have been the day previously, so should correct fairly quickly. No one wants to miss opportunities to gather wealth.

I'm wondering what forward planning is feasible and why it should be considered wishful thinking to assume nations the world over have at least a modicum of common sense. The correct process would be not to panic about wild fears and distortions but to deal with a changing marketplace as changes occur, as happens every day already.

As for workers' rights, I still don't see why folk have no trust in a national government's intentions towards workers but are happy to have a higher unelected authority above it telling it what to do. Being in the EU hasn't stopped the Tories stripping away much of the union power leaving workers without reasonable options without jumping through hoops so far, I doubt it would prevent it in the future either.

Never mind about Andromeda, have you heard, it's in the stars, next July we collide with Mars, if we vote leave.

mikey, even with the Tories split on this they'll wipe the floor with labour. Do you think Labour will win the next General election? Actually it won't matter anyway because if we stay in the EU Brussels will be running the country anyway.

Here is the man the Remain Side want to run this country.

^Quick, vote him out of office.

“Don't worry TTT , i've been tasked to lead a team of inter galaxy scientists from the United Federation Of Planets to repair the STC , if we leave the EU. “

Not a chance. On June 24th all aliens will be forcibly repatriated and no more allowed in. People from the United Federation of Planets will not be allowed to settle unless they gain 10.5 billion points on the Australian-style points system to be introduced. (Usual maximum 25).

On a more serious note I find it extremely odd that some of the electorate place more trust in a corrupt organisation that is presiding over the impoverishment and decline of many of its member nations, than they do in a government which they can review every five years and whose only priority should be the best interests of the UK. To suggest that “workers’ rights” can only be protected by the EU is offensive. Of course we could always move over to the French model of industrial relations (provided we’ve enough tyres to set fire to).

The Tory party is particularly prone to split at the moment because it consists of two camps - proper Tories and those following Mr Cameron (so as to be secure of a job under the next reshuffle).

I never liked Andromeda anyway it was a crap series.

Me too.

Andromeda should learn how to drive on the correct side of the road.

Sandy Roe - Well, did you ever!

I think its worse than that. The nearest Black Hole has speeded up its rate of increase and will swallow the world on, I think August 13th - unless, of course, we vote to remain in Europe. Worrying.....

If we vote to stay in, just watch "Uranus".
