Title: Post Brexit Insurance
Post by: john m on August 29, 2018, 12:07:33 pm
Man in the Car this morning going to a meeting on Insurance in the IFC .He said after brexit if you are with a British based insurer for motor,life ,house any insurance expect your premiums to rise between 8 and 12% .He said if the British move outside of the European Court of Justice then insurance companies registered  in the UK will need to Re-insure their liabilities with a EU registered insurer .He said a lot of British Insurers already do this but that wont stop them profiteering .

Seems if they drop the ECJ as the arbiter of claims and revert to Common Law then the British system would apply to litigation so it would be necessary to re-insure in a ECJ jurisdiction .He said its no biggie a lot of British insurance companies Re-insure with Munich Re which is the worlds biggesr Re-insurer and backed by the German Government .I think his point was we are going to be scalped by Insurance companies profiteering under the pretense of changes in legal status .

Interesting question, DM. I have found, in recent times, that prices charged by UK retailers (e.g. Debenhams, Marks & Sparks, Argos) in ROI stores are significantly higher than the Sterling equivalent in Northern Ireland stores. Obviously the exchange rate is a contributory factor with respective prices probably being set based on historical data, something that might no be (as) relevant to insurance premiums.

The M&S dine-in option has levelled itself out recently. The tenner sterling option is now £12 mirroring the ROI one of €14. The Great British Break Off is happening as they told us it would.. lol

The big chain stores don't really work like that, erm. In this technological age it's very easy to compare prices across jurisdictions as you shop.

Lads, when will you see that the EU is a money-making racket, an absolute load of bollox. Just last week I ordered a tub of protein from the US, it was stopped at customs and destroyed because EU Commission Regulation (EC) No 206/2009 states that you need a licence to import whey protien from outside the EU, regardless of the amount. It's a joke, absolute jobsworth flutes is all they are.

It's slightly cheaper than the overtaxed protein for sale in Ireland.

Exactly, just like the bullshit we were told before we opened up our borders to Eastern Europe "We don't envisage more than 10,000 workers arriving in Ireland per year" over 60,000 arrived in Ireland in the first four months of 2018 alone.

Just like Tin,and sclass,I want out also it won't happen through a vote here,but we can only hope it will happen through the actions of others pulling out.if the Brits go on to do very well outside it,hopefully others like Italy,France,etc will see this ,and do likewise a long shot I know,but lts the only hope Eurosceptic s like me have

Is there a facebook group where like-minded eurosceptics can meet up and share ideas?This movement of 3 posters cant be all there is?Seems a little underpowered even with Timmy on the protein shakes.

Even if we were out of EU we'd still need more immigrants from other places to keep the place going.What makes ya think any other government would be less friendly to immigration.

All that's gonna happen is we'll be getting the foreigners who don't feel welcome any more in the UK. Kinda shooting yourself in the foot by supporting Brexit.

MFH do you not accept that these people are coming here,and working for fukking peanuts they are diluting the minimum rate of pay which Irish people fought hard to achieve these people ,in some cases are working for less then 3 euro an hour they are told by their employers that if they open their mouths about how much they are being paid,they will be in the next boat home to where ever they came from.why do you think business men welcome them so much to our country ,? It's not for sentimental reasons I can assure you. Politicians also ,who are in the pockets of these business men ,also want you to welcome them and it's the ordinary gogshites who buy the line that we must take them in for charity reasons.well as far as in concerned,charity begins at home

This game of working for less then the minimum rate is fukking ILLEGAL.yet a blind eye is being turned to it even though it is being blatantly flounted in our faces. Remember the Irish ferries dispute years ago  ? That was the start of it,and it never stopped since.tgen you get the gogshites saying Irish people won't do the trivial jobs.Irish people won't do them because they are not being paid the proper rate,and all trade unionists should support them in that instead of turning a blind eye

Title: Re: Post Brexit Insurance
Post by: mercenary for hire on August 30, 2018, 01:32:01 pm
If they're only getting 3 euro an hour there might not be anything to send home.

There are Brazilians on student visas living in bunk beds but they're working in Deliveroo etc.Ya need some recent examples.I'm open to persuasion but you need evidence.

I've had various tradesmen working on my gaff in the last year and many are getting200/250 cash a day when I calculated their hours.Most were Irish but didn't complete full days.I don't see the foreign invasion of cheap labour that you lads speak of.

If ya find any gimps willing to work for 30 quid a day send them up to me I'll jockey back the cunts down to the pub and back...still be cheaper than a cab.

I'd say there's plenty of immigrant taximen living in "bed share" accommodation and sending money home but at least they're earning the same as Irish born taximen. As DM notes, abuses off minimum wage legislation cannot be tolerated.

Penny wise, pound foolish, Tim? Check with Dept of Agriculture next time you consider importing foodstuff. I think it was Benjamin Franklin who coined the phrase haste makes waste?

The department of agriculture take instruction from the EU, it is an EU commission directive that caused the seizure of my protein, it didn't stop them charging me the duty on it and then they seized it after duty was paid. Parasitical scum, just one more reason of many to get out of the EU. #Irexit
