    Maybe a song and dance routine, or perhaps facilitate world peace, or perhaps just relax in my mountain gold and cash.

      Excellent. Be sure to flash that cash in Uncle Dave's face at Christmas time, he needs motivation to get out of that rut when he's signing on, and make it clear that it was what you voted for.

          Spouting religious tosh? You do have a tendency to speak, but say less than nothing

            The irony is they're crowing on here to us successful contractors who have the skills to be even better off under the chaos of Brexit. The difference between us remainers and the Brexidiots is whilst we can be better off, we don't won't to do this at the expense of others.

            Brexiters have others been happy at the suffering of others, even though those who will suffer the most are those who are the most vulnerable in society. I guess it's the way brexiters, who are mostly Tory voters, have always treated the vulnerable.

              Misquoting it as well. (Unsurprisingly)

                Absolute class coming from someone claiming to be a contractor. I particularly like the bit
                " ...whilst we can be better off, we don't won't to do this at the expense of others. "

                Brilliant.

                  Again, you speak but say nothing.

                  How is being a contractor contrary to what I said? I offer a set of skills that clients have a choice to pay for if they wish, or not hire me if they don't want to. I've never had a contract where I have been offered an extension so clearly my clients are happy to pay for my skills.

                  You may rip people off by offering a substandard skills, but not all contractors are like that.

                      People might want to read the original report, they say that around 179,000 people may be affected in the EU but worldwide 612,000 workers might be affected. That leaves 433,000 in non-EU countries who could all lose their jobs. Is Brexit now an analogy for 'How to Lose Friends and Make Enemies'?
                      Brexit is having a wee in the middle of the room at a house party because nobody is talking to you, and then complaining about the smell.
