It's in the lefty's favourite paper it must be true.

Why?

 

Mel's an anarchist anyway.

“If they could use hand-knitted computer code to make a frictionless re-entry to Earth’s atmosphere in 1969, we can solve the problem of frictionless trade at the Northern Irish border,”

Lol, the clown can’t even get that right.

 

The fact that the command module’s heat shield reached 5000 degrees Fahrenheit suggests that the re entry was far from frictionless!  😵

Seems about right,

 

"Economic policy

Britain and the euro: what if we'd joined?"

It was one of Gordon Brown's better decisions.  It was certainly much better than selling off most of the UK's gold when the price of gold was very low.

I cant remember any.

 

Could  you possibly refresh my memory?

You need to see your Doctor if you have memory problems.  I can't help you because I am not a Doctor in medicine and can only help people who have lost their keys and not their memory.   Can you remember more recently when George Osborne stated there would be an emergency budget immediately,  if the democratic UK people voted to leave the EU?   There wasn't an emergency budget immediately after the democratic 2016 EU referendum result which you may or may not remember because many people who don't respect the democratic EU referendum result seem to have selective memory problems.

Then he needs to know the meaning,

 

"Definition of anarchist

1: a person who rebels against any authority, established order, or ruling power

2: a person who believes in, advocates, or promotes anarchism or anarchy,  especially : one who uses violent means to overthrow the established order"

Good grief, does that mean that to satisfy  no1 they wouldn't believe in drawing benefits? That would throw a bit of a spanner in the works.

Hilarious to watch lockdoctor attempt to dodge this question.  He's made an assertion about scaremongering surrounding not joining the euro, but can't provide any evidence that it actually happened.

He then swiftly answers another question that nobody asked, and hopes that we'll forget what he said.

Nothing bad also didn't happen after the UK didn't sign up to the Euro currency.  At the time there was a lot of scaremongering predicting doom and gloom if our country didn't adopt the Euro and do away with our own Pound.

Can you support your statement with any evidence that this actually happened?  I won't hold my breath.

Didn’t he also claim that we were told that the UK economy would collapse on the announcement of a leave vote in 2016?

Which is all very beautiful.

 

Now that you've answered a question that I didn't ask, how about answering the one that I did ask. You know, the one about predictions of economic meltdown if we didn't join the Euro. From my (rather good memory), I seem to recall that all the talk was in the opposite direction. So, I'm looking forward to you setting me right.

Hey, I do remember that emergency budget prediction by Osbourne before the referendum.

 

But I also remember Mark Carney insta-pumping £70bn’s worth of further QE money between the referendum result and mid-August 2016, plus an interest rate cut to 0.25%.

 

Now, since you’re not afflicted with one of those ‘selective memories’, I’m sure you remember those too?

I don't need support anything to back up my memory.  At the time there was loads of ample coverage about the negatives consequences the UK would suffer if the UK didn't adopt the EU.  At the time I didn't record episodes of Question Time or cut out newspapers clippings to record all the negativity at the time about the UK not joining the EU.

That is simply not true and you know it.
