Finally, it is important to stress that the much bigger impact on the UK economy from a possible future deepening of the eurozone crisis comes from the inter-connectedness between the UK's and the eurozone's economies through our trade with them and banking, rather than the money provided for bailouts.

If the eurozone was to collapse, the negative economic impact would be felt in the UK regardless of whether it is in or out of the EU.

Ofcourse it would.

But we wouldn't be bankrupt with zero credit rating.

Now you and apparently other citizens are getting so harsh on boris, the EU takes pity on him. They offer to help him stay in the saddle, oh irony!

Hi

I have always been hard on Boris, a member of the Political Elite, a rich kid who will say or do anything to become Prime Minister.

He is a proven liar, been sacked twice for lying, complained bitterly about the Withdrawal Agreement, but has voted for it.

He is an unprincipled incompetent.

A man who has nothing at all in common with ordinary people. who said 200,000 a year was peanuts.

He is as two faced as Corbyn and is proposing to borrow more than Corbyn and to give tax cuts to the top 10%.

A man who proposed giving an amnesty to the 600,000 illegals here.

He is a glorious example of why we need a complete overhaul of our Political System.

I simply do not trust him.

I will not vote Conservative or Labour, a choice between two we do not deserve, Boris and Corbyn.

I will vote for Farage.

Re: Brexit and Boris.

They are all complete con artists Swimmy. I would love to take a broom and do a complete cleanout of both houses. History will certainly hold them to account, but unfortunately, it doesn't help us in the present.
The only way the rest of the country can ever be truly represented and listened to is by proportional representation. But that is like asking for pie-in-the-sky.

I agree in part.

I have said many times that my vote in the next GE will go to Farage, and my reasons have been stated here and must be well known to those who read my posts.

However, should Boris manage to get us out of the EU completely without any 'deals' and without paying the EU's £39 billion ransom, I might be persuaded to vote Conservative.

Unfortunately, it seems highly unlikely that the latter will actually happen.

Ah, someone who does not admire the talent of Beethoven. I think I know a term for that level of ignorant tastelessness.

It make “cash for questions” pale into insignificance

Perhaps the arguments for this case are to be found here?
