The biggest Pro Lisbon excuse yet

[luther]

Us companies pulled out because we got uncompetitive,the cost of running a business became too high and this along with the US economy contracting caused them to cut back.

If so, what do you think is the answer to getting investment back???

Become more competitive???

What would you suggest???

in fact,

if we voted yes the last time it would have been disastrous, because it gave the EU the right to change our tax rates etc. The only reason the likes of Microsoft are in this country is because of the low corporation tax advantage. If that was removed, like it could have been before the treaty was addressed, and we were given guarantees, the big companies woulda been outta here so fast the country wouldnt have known what hit them, and you could have added 50k+ to the unemployed list.

Vote yes this time. They've sorted out the shitty stuff.

they can amend the treaty later ffs.Thats what they will do.They will bring it in and then amend the thing.

The gov want this in because its a gravy train for them and they will be even less accountable for anything not that they are to begin with.

the damage is done.the only way to go is doing what we did to get the economy going before,reduce taxes,keep costs of business down and keep our low corporations tax.These cant be done at the moment because of the incresing debt we are in.Of course if the idiots looked after our domestic industries then we wouldnt be in this mess at the moemtn because our domestic economy would be ok.As it stands we have very little domestic economy.
