First Law of Contracting: Only the strong survive -
Originally posted by tomtomagain View PostBut that's the whole beauty of living in an open, entrepreneurial, business focused, liberal democracy, with light regulation, strong laws and low taxes.
YOU don't need to worry about it.
Today somebody, I don't know whether it was a boy or girl, whether they were old or young, whether they came from a privileged background or from the streets*, started a company.
It's only a tiny embryo today. But they have seen a golden opportunity and the chance to build something they love. Being an entrepreneurial go-getter they've seized the opportunity with both hands.
It might be manufacturing outfit, it could be a new service based organisation. Whatever it is, they have the passion, intelligence and commitment to make a success of it.
Today it employs one person, by the end of the decade it will employ 500. In 20 years it will employ 50,000 and be entering the FTSE100. Creating employment and opportunity for many.
Wish them luck!

Honda, Toyota and Nissan are here because they got government money to set up here.
Theyll be gone if they have to pay tariffs to access the EU.
We're the country with the growing twin deficits, one of which is the largest in the Western world, debt-GDP ratio of 90% and growing. Our fiscal and monetary positon is poor.
Why do you think that is, if as you say "we are the innovators the entrepreneurs the country that makes things happen the ideas people,"?
Could it be all BS, do you think?
if we pay them tariffs we charge them tariffs it works both waysComment

So we might get less immigrants leaving the EU, but then we'll get less housing as well

I think eventually the penny will drop about the EU, but it might take some time.
