Why are you implying I'd want riots? and if Canadians burn police cars over losing a hockey game, or English burn their towns after an armed suspect is shot while fleeing police, I think it's reasonable to suspect that the British would riot over their government ignoring the most important referendum of the century.

LebaneseDude 6,146 Posted June 24, 2016 Share Posted June 24, 2016 Tbh I'm somewhat pressed because this goes to show how stupidity can easily win when people get complacent. Let's hope this doesn't translate to the United States of Trumperica. Edited just now by LebaneseDude. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's still relatively extreme but nowhere near his youth. The shift was hardly incomparable to that of Clinton. She switched from Republican very quickly into her career in the 1960s. One can easily use that as a justification for her using her experiences to shape her opinions as opposed to stubbornness. Would you really categorize it as "stubbornness"?

Well they pay the same as regular citizen but it varies according the country so for example in Scotland it's free for EU (yet English pay) while in England I guess (but not sure) it's the same as citizens. But I think universities do get a lot of funding from the EU anyway (regarding research and stuff) Sur le sable sur la neige, Sur les images dorées,Sur le front de mes amis, J’écris ton nom Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Florian 20,017 Posted June 24, 2016 Share Posted June 24, 2016 2 minutes ago, Luc said: Anyone knows the impact on tuition fees for EU citizens in the UK? Many students are profiting from Article 18 of the TFEU, which says that all member states are prohibited to discriminate on the basis of nationality within the EU. This means that any EU student pays the same tuition fees as the resident students of this country. This may seem obvious, but it actually isn’t: right now, UK and EU students pay £9,000 for one year of studying in Oxford or Cambridge; for non-EU students, this could be up to £30,000/year! Therefore, the tuition fees of EU students studying in the UK could increase significantly if the British universities are no longer bound by this non-discriminatory clause. Other than this, chances are that the UK will also withdraw from the Schengen Treaty, which allows free movement of people and goods within the EU. In practice, this means that after a ‘Brexit’ students would have to get a ‘Tier 4 studentvisa’ in order to be able to study in the UK. Besides the £322 visa itself, you will also have to pay a ‘healthcare surcharge’, which, currently, for a US national is £525. There are also several eligibility requirements, such as sufficient knowledge of the English language and a guaranteed certificate of enrolment – plus, students hvs to prove that they are able to sustain themselves and pay for their university and their stay. Free movement of people makes for a great opportunity, and taking this away is costly for students and makes for a lot of red tape. http://www.campuseurope.eu/tag/brexit/ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bernie has none. (guess landing under sniper fire can really rattle her brain) Considering that claim of yours has no base, then you're not exactly a trusted source so a valid conclusion can't be drawn. Are you honestly trying to attack me for the integrity of my posts? I always provide links to the figures and they're always from valid sources. Feel free to provide proof. Otherwise I suggest you rein your insults Since when is Politifact not a viable source? I find it disconcerting that you are more likely to believe media outlets than Pulitzer Prize winning fact checkers. What's next you're going to start calling the Oxford Dictionary unreliable? Also your third statement is a hilarious way to abuse statistics. The she has 3 "Pants on Fire" statements out of a total of 212 statements. That's 1.4% of her statements being absolute lies. Burn her at the stake. Meanwhile Hillary has 23% of her statements being Complete Truths while Sanders only scores 14%. What about that? Edited just now by LebaneseDude.
