What annoys me most about the £350m bus is this: they could have halved the figure and said £175m; there could then have been absolutely no argument about "That's not the real figure!" and it would still illustrate the huge amount of money the UK has to borrow to fund spending in the EU which is something that gets completely ignored when people are arguing about how right or wrong the £350m number is.

It's all smoke and mirrors no matter who's at the helm. Bloody politics.

What a dirty game this politics farce is.I'm sorry if I rattled the cages of some Tory boys, but as I said if any party did this I would feel the same. When I grew up if we didn't have any money we didn't. I suppose I am thankful that I come from a culture that is honest When there is an election why do have to listen to weeks of insincere pathetic dishonest speeches from people who seek power and wealth for themselves. We know the state of the country and each one of us interprets that differently so door knocking and battle buses should not make any difference to our thinking.Can't wait to get back to some honest footie and no diving in the box pls

Source: Nigel Dodds and Ian Paisley Jr. As for the "Tory Boy" moniker: a desire to have conversations couched in facts rather than opinions and a recognition of constitutional prerogative doesn't mean political support one way or another.

Exactly And now we give a billion to a party like the DUP Not the NHS, we,couldn't afford that could we🤣 No money is being given to the DUP. The money is being given to distribute to the DUP, for votes. It may not go through bank accounts directly... But a bribe is a bribe. In the commercial world you get busted for that

Tank feck we don't have a voting system like america

Not one leaver i know took that the way the remainers say we did lmao Clearly some pretty official Leavers did believe it, or wanted others to believe it, as this tweet from Vote Leave suggests, eight days after the bus campaign started.

As did some remainers, but you have to laugh at the gullibility of some whatever side they're on

Unbelievable the rewriting going on here. Where are the new trade deal negotiations we were told were going to happen? Car production dropped 10% last month Talk about rewriting. Car production is up 0.8% over the last year and saw record performance in the first quarter of this year - that's right record performance, as in never been so high in history. That follows a period of unprecedented growth in motor manufacturering which normalised in April and May. If you draw it as a graph it looks like a massive peak with a tiny down tick at the end. Looking at moon rock through a microscope does not mean that we look up at the night sky and see grey dust.
