potential of 2.8m jobs going for leaving the EU without a deal...the NHS would not survive with that tax funding lost. This is why protecting the NHS finances is best served with being in the EU

https://www.theguardian.com/politics/video/2018/jul/16/complete-madness-anna-soubry-on-the-government-accepting-amendments-to-customs-bill hundreds of thousands of jobs will go ‘if we do not deliver frictionless trade’. ‘Nobody voted to be poorer,’ she said. ‘Nobody voted leave on the basis that somebody with a gold-plated pension and inherited wealth would take their job away from them’.

@CliftonMagpie some responses re Capital & Conflict diatribe 1. Centralised Power is the wrong way to go In these days of austerity, local government has suffered from cutting funding from the UK government. We live in a world of globalisation, the EU has stood up to Google, Uber, Facebook ...has the current UK government concerted any action against these companies???? How many EU decisions have gone against the UK goverments position over the years of membership ( remember we have a veto on the most important)...well it's been bugger all 2. Fringe Nations perform better Switzerland and Norway mentioned. You forget Norway pays the EU a direct contribution to its budget but without any say. Norway's fishing and oil and Swiss banking, are significant parts of their economies, which they have chose to protect at a cost. They are both rule takers from the EU, a fact of economic life. UK is in a worse trade position to negotiate its own trade deals...you think India and China will sign trade deals without the easing of UK visa restrictions...India has publicly said that any trade deal needs significant easing on visas... Remember the lie about Turkey joining the EU, just think of amount of Indians and Chinese aiming to come on tourist visas and staying? 3. Regulation should be local EU have legislated on paid holidays, restrictions on the ability to fire / lay off people without paying a settlement, job protection... Think of mortgage providers re evaluating lending risk if you can be dismissed / contract terminated without any back stop in finances to cover looking for another job We are in a global market, companies tend to go with the EU standards as they are the highest and therefore can rely on this to sell into other countries where regulation standards may be lower. e.g, pharmaceuticals 4. The economic disaster that is Southern Europe Nothing to do with the UK...... Italy and Greece both being in the Euro. German tax payer has taken a hit on Greece but Germany has net benefited as EUR was de facto lower than the DEM rate may have been, and German industry had reaped the benefits. Cost to the UK of Euro, absolutely nil 5. Immigation policy is becoming more important 47% of immigration numbers directly controlled by UK government, off the top of my head... 53%of EU immigration.....add to prosperity of UK as well as providing NHS necessary doctors and nurses. EU law allows us, the UK, to deport any EU national after 3 months without a job.... but does UK government do this???? nah.... Incompetence of the highest order then 6. Trade deals are a red herring So how many trade deals will be compromised on the easing of visa restrictions? Are you happy finding in the supermarket chlorinated chicken, GM foods as they were written into US trade deal? 7. Further integration with the EU means economic decline Complete nonsense...Car manufacturing, airbus...both rely on parts across borders...WTO tariffs would seriously harm UK manufacturing industry with companies relocating in the Single Market to avoid cross border tariffs. British manufacturing jobs will go 8. Democratic accountability matters UK appoints through council of ministers.... again, hardly any EU legislation has been against UK interests...and the key ones, UK has a veto on 9. Land Ownership and CAP well land ownership in UK owned by a privileged few... a UK policy that UK government can do on its own...absolutely nothing to do with EU CAP...yes needs reform but UK reliant on EU food imports and agricultural workers. Who is going to pick food post Brexit? Indians, Chinese, Vietnamese? 10. The Common Fisheries Policy UK fishing companies have sold out to takeovers by say Spanish companies and pocketed the cash...They had some control but decided to cash in for themselves. They cant complain Just to say not a very professional paper produced by them . Proving that #StopBrexit is necessary .

.."rarer of more personal.".. You cannot be serious @CliftonMagpie... so if one of your family , heaven forbid, contracts cancer and the NHS doctors say that the chance of survival has been diminished by lack of radioisotopes, IS THAT ACCEPTABLE? The piece is written on the British Medical Association website, please do not ignore the facts. The Financial Services sector provides circa 15% of tax revenues. Jobs are leaving the City of London as companies cannot take the economic risk of being outside the Single Market. Significant income tax revenues lost to the Exchequer, for what? Other EU countries are therefore gaining tax income at our expense. Even Mrs May says there will have to be tax rises to support the NHS...why...because of these lost tax revenues

of course, provided no electoral rules are broken, as has been the case (spending limits broken)in the referendum in 2016

https://www.bma.org.uk/news/2017/november/brexit-threatens-supply-of-isotopes When you have lost a friend to cancer, despite that these isotopes are essential for treatment. https://www.theguardian.com/business/2018/jun/26/car-industry-leaders-blame-brexit-for-uk-collapse-in-investment My sister has already lost her job to Brexit as her department's work has moved to Germany. Loss of tax revenues that help support the NHS https://www.independent.co.uk/voices/chlorinated-chicken-usa-trade-deal-donald-trump-brexit-a8295141.html EU Food standards essential to be maintained. Not prepared to eat chlorinated chicken, GM foods etc @CliftonMagpie here are 3 for starters, now, please comment and propose for your 3 in support of Brexit in response?

@CliftonMagpieIt is good for democracy when something that is economically so damaging to the UK, as the facts become apparent, that there is a second referendum. Your failure to provide an economic argument in favour of Brexit says it all....
-
@CliftonMagpieWhy does Brexit need to happen? Would be interested to hear why you think Brexit is so essential and perhaps provide some economic evidence as to why it will be good for the UK?

https://www.walesonline.co.uk/sport/football/football-news/newport-county-0-0-notts-14304214 Two points dropped against a one dimensional Newport team. Labadie their Motm apparently, says all you need to know

http://www.somersetlive.co.uk/sport/football/match-reports/francois-zoko-rescues-late-point-812852 If we are looking for a decent centre half, thought Yeovil's Omar Sowunmi would be a great choice to consider
@TheSkipperJust please let me differentiate between who I would expect to leave and who I want to leave. If O'Connor returns January/February, there is realistically no space for Milsom, much as I would like him to stay. I agree on the Centre Half but trying to source a good one in January may be difficult. Worth trying though
Firstly, before we jump into speculation regarding possible signings, Notts need to release players to make room within the wage bill. I expect Curtis, Hollis and Milsom to go. Whilst I agree with the substance of the article, I cannot agree on .... Duffy and Brisley.."being unbelievably solid"!!!!

Just 3 words...#JusticeForStant.... Agree with @Elite_pie, given the alleged Sheridan settlement, we need a good cup run to replenish the coffers
