We are amongst the most self-sufficient countries on earth when it comes to food.
But not when it comes to money though, right?
Sixth highest GDP per capita on earth. Seventh according to GNI.
Fair do's. At least you didn't need to be bailed out by various institutions when you're entire banking system threatened to implode, right? A crisis which you're still paying through the nose for now and will continue to do so for the foreseeable future.
Our debt ratio is 68 per cent of GDP. The UK’s is 88 per cent.

Either join the discussion or snake hiss off.
To be frank this is spoiling my enjoyment of the snooker.

When Robbo is in this form, there is nobody I would rather watch play snooker.
Awesome performance

You might think you’re taking back control, but we are stronger together.

Yes, because as a much bigger economy, our capacity for production, buying power and ability to trade across the world is far higher than that of Ireland. Debt wouldn't affect us as much for these reasons.

For me, Mark Davis, snooker is the natural progression in the Reardon - Higgins - Davis - Hendry - Selby lineage.

They were awesome.
If Robbo could play to that rhythm consistently, he could win many more rankers.
I really enjoyed that.

Believe it or not, none of those things would diminish by leaving the EU.

Me neither.
Lisowski, Judd, Williams, Yuan and Higgins are all guaranteed to win.

That was a nice little post match with Robbo too.
Interesting point raised by Foulds that I'd never really thought about: "The pink's never on its spot at the end of a 147."

Yes it would. The EU is part of the world. It makes up 44 per cent of your exports. Trading with this 44 per cent will, obviously, became far more complicated after March 29.
The mere prospect of this has seen your production output drop six months straight.
