40-60 billion is the bill UK is to be charged (according to Sky News)


600 Billion is the cost to the EU/UK of Brexit in total.


Strangely the Arab Spring and the China Property bubble and US data quality issues

cost 600 billion - it's a standard figure people use I think :)


.. and UK public sector pension liabilities 600 billion - what coinicidence

We're definitely still getting that thought right? I mean, it was on a bus. A bus wouldn't lie.

Because now they have to look for ways to justify their vote and it's proving increasingly difficult and frustrating to do so.

I'm sure if given half a chance they'd 'metaphorically' behead us. I'm getting the feeling of what the French Revolution might have felt like.


Oh dear, I said "French"



I must be a traitor to the cause "Stop Talking sense"


*CHOP*

But you remainers are missing the bigger picture. Just think of the opportunities once free of EU rules:


Curly bananas weighed in pounds and ounces

Peckham Rye vineyard Champagne sold by the pint

Forest Hill fungus-free Roquefort matured for 24 hours

East Dulwich GM truffles harvested from Goose Green

Herne Hill spam prosciutto


There's money to be made for our Brexit-liberated entrepreneurs

Something i read today,,


Italy per capita income no higher now than 18 years ago (yes Eighteen!)

Output is the same level as the early 80s

The economy 7% smaller than in 2008

The population is 1 million higher


youth unemployment is now at 48% ( no wonder there 200,000 young italians in London - including my cousin's kids)


EU (or more specifically the Euro I guess) can cost a fair bit for some

    • Hello, I found some keys on Monday morning on Melbourne Grove. The keyring was not Donald Duck though. Could it be another keyring?
    • As a note of recommendation, I did this course in Rye Oak Centre, Peckham and gained so much from it. Was such a lovely, supportive group.
    • Wish they get rid of the tree in Barry Rd adjacent to the Plough, The roots are all over the place, Council re tarmacked them some time ago but makes the pavement uneven. You cannot get a mobility scooter over them as tarmac slopes. Witness a lady with wheelchair trying to get over , in the end her carer had to help over with 2 crutches then push the empty chair over. Also young children using scooters/bikes have fallen off at this point. Hubby spoke to tarmac workers when the work was done and they felt the area was very dangerous to pedestrians and the council should have authorised the removal of both tree and roots. Some prams cannot get over as well. Prior to Christmas, mother/carer with 2 children in double buggy had to walk in road with on coming traffic. We do need trees   I have 2 in my garden - one is well over 50 years old and we have it pollard every few years to prevent it damaging neighbours property.
