Pity he can't even be honest about his convictions. Expand Your usual standards. I said that the word poverty was bandied around a bit too much for my liking because when I think of “poverty”, I think of the poor fuckers in countries a lot poorer than ours. And this was on the backdrop of being told I was below the poverty line. As for Brexit, from day one I’ve been quite clear that ending free movement isn’t an issue for me. That said I think it’s very sensible to set our own immigration policy like New Zealand, Australia, USA and most other countries in the world.

You weren't 'told' you were on the poverty line, you self-assessed yourself that you were, which was ludicrous considering all the expensive hobbies you were going through at the time. Likewise, you say FOM isn't an issue to you and never has been, then in the next sentence say you want a controlled system like Australia or NZ (Visa). Is it an issue or not? You've also refused a host of yes/no questions put to you. Not really conducive to debate is it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
