    So regardless of the EU referendum, my view is this: if we want to reform human rights laws in this country, it isn’t the EU we should leave but the ECHR and the jurisdiction of its court.”

    however, last week she changed her mind..
    "Theresa May ditches plan to pull UK out of ECHR - says it divides people & has no parliamentary majority"

    0% laws now thanks to Brexit, EC and ECJ flushed down the pan.
    ECHR stay-leave contentious, but we can leave if we choose.
    Brexiters need to get it in their heads there are some supra-national courts you leave at your peril.

    If we leave the ECHR then we will have the international respect of Putin's Russia and Saudi Arabia.

    Do you still think The Hague Court is an EU body or have we sorted you on that?
    Which Hague court are we talking about, there are quite a few there but as someone who believes in being insular you probably wouldn't know that? Do you know the word 'details'?

    God help any client who gets on the back of whatever you do. I asune it's junior coding based on your extreme lack of knowledge and obvious inability to discuss anything at a level above base.

    One of my clients is moving its data centre from the UK to Paris. The basis of the decision is the uncertainty in the UK over what happens next. Business doesn't really care too much about whether the UK is part of the EU, or adopts the Swiss/Norwegian model - though an isolationist regime would be considered very bad - but they do care about uncertainty.

    Since the May/Leadsom battle will take about 2 months to resolve, the uncertainty will certainly continue.

    I'm sure it will but it was going to happen anyway, at least this way people will notice that it's been taking place unlike before where it was done via stealth.

    Pathetic, although to be expected based upon your previous standard of post.

    During the credit crunch, EUR and GBP fell sharply. This put pressure on CHF contract rates. Whereas before the credit crunch, rates were around 1000CHF per day, they fell to 800CHF per day.

    So you should do well.
