What facts might these be? If it is ANYTHING about the state of the economy, trade, interest rates, taxes, immigration among other things after Thursday (whichever way it goes) then I am afraid you have been duped. I regret to inform you that there are ZERO facts about these subjects, purely conjecture & speculation.

It's also speculation that if you drive your car off a cliff you will die, but that doesn't mean anyone is about to do it.

You, sir, wear your ignorance far better than most on here.
OK, I'll bite (a bit):
My list of priorities (in order) are:
Ridding ourselves of a layer of government that is just not necessary & is incredibly expensive, cumbersome, undemocratic & inefficient
Not having to have any of our laws ratified by European "others"
Not having to pay substantial sums into a "club", for which we get very little return (for how much we pay in)
As you insulted me I shall reciprocate. Your time might be better spent studying the English Language.
"imbelicle" - I cannot tell if you mean umbilical or imbecile
"relys" - relays or relies?

Oh bloody hell, do you know you're dead right. You've got me there. I didn't think of that. Thank you so much, I think that has changed my mind.

The EU these days are no more than a political eurovision song contest with only brussels allowed to vote.

I've never voted tory in my life, yet here I am having their rules and laws imposed on me because roughly 1 of 5 people in the uk voted for them.
To me that's almost as undemocratic as the unelected EU president. At least the EU stands for things I believe in. Workers rights, that sort of thing.

Its ok because if we leave we can put more corrosive chemicals in the sheep dip you go into when you enter Yorkshire.

What affect will this have on the game? (Keeping it on topic)?

Very little in the short term, long term more stringent conditions on working visas which might benefit Catalans further.

cartoons/WB24.gif Life is pretty simple: You do stuff. Most fails. Some works. You do more of what works.:cartoons/WB24.gif |

| The point is we are entering the great unknown. As all the leavers have focused on immigration and you'd be safe with them (not one has committed to actually reduce immigration) you would expect tighter rules, though it won't change a jot in reality to the numbers coming in and those leaving. You might also expect tighter rules on tax as well particularly for non-UK citizens. Broad policies may have some unexpected implications on all sorts of activities including sports people and the impact on someone with a grand parent who once lived in a Euro country. However this will take years if not decades. The clubs will have plenty of time to put in place clear strategies to protect their player pool, grow your own etc. Of course as its rugby league I doubt many clubs will even consider it until it's too late and its happened to them.

That would have meant acknowledging the 1951 Refugee Convention exists. So it didn't happen.
