    You don't even believe such nonsense yourself so why post it? Your making yourself look ridiculous.

    So you are saying what they have quoted is false?

    Yup. So much so that one has to doubt the integrity of anyone who claims it isn't. Even the Labour Court have issued a specific correction of the pamphlet, because, to quote the Labour Court:

    The leaflet implies that contractors from other member states are not bound by the terms of such regulations. It seeks to rely on a decision of the Labour Court as authority for that proposition. The Court made no such decision and in fact decided the opposite in the case to which the leaflet refers.

    The leaflet contains what purports to be a quote from the decision in question (Determination No.REP091) which has been altered so as to totally change its import.
    I'm not sure why you feel that pretending that a Labour Court judgement says one thing, when in fact it doesn't, isn't false, but it demonstrates a complete contempt for the truth on their part - and by implication, yours.

    Only a small fraction of the Irish working population are covered

    by registered employment agreements.

    Vast majority, under Ruffert will be left exposed by ECJ to national minimum

    wage of 8.65 euro.

    Let Labour Court tell people that eh?

    I'm not sure why you've even bothered to point that out - it has no relevance whatsoever to the claim.

    Having read that I can say that there are many sound arguments in there, but as soon as I got to the page about Turkey I just stopped reading. I know very little about UKIP but I can only assume they are a bunch of xenophobes who decry the 'islamification' of Europe?

    Say no and there will be no more financial support (or bribes as you put it). I'd vote yes for €15m. How much are the UKIP offering for a no?
