Ridgewalk Posted June 22, 2016 Share Posted June 22, 2016 Actually the outcome probably won't bother me one way or another. But unlike many of the gutless crowd on here, I do actually want what's best for Britain and HER people!! Whereas I'm pretty certain you are one of many who is only thinking of themselves!!

tzijlstra Posted June 22, 2016 Share Posted June 22, 2016 On the topic of Greece, I only just found this. But... euhmmm... it puts a lot of the nonsense about the EU not being able to reform, or Greece being a victim of the EU to sleep: https://yanisvaroufakis.eu/2016/02/28/is-greece-not-another-compelling-reason-to-vote-for-brexit-on-23rd-june/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yanis says both of those things. He just wants the UK fightinging the hopeless fight to reform alongside Greece. Sorry bud. No dice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He said that he would if he had a vote, vote to stay as he thought the EU would start to unravel if GB waved goodbye. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He said that he would if he had a vote, vote to stay as he thought the EU would start to unravel if GB waved goodbye. That constrasts somewhat with what he's written here. Which was first? The interview you saw or this article? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quik Posted June 22, 2016 Share Posted June 22, 2016 That constrasts somewhat with what he's written here. Which was first? The interview you saw or this article? It doesn't contrast with what he's written here. He says he thinks it's in Greeces best interests for the UK to stay in and help greece fight a rearguard action against Brussels. Very different from saying such a rash course of action is in our interests. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Totinglee Posted June 22, 2016 Share Posted June 22, 2016 (edited) It doesn't contrast with what he's written here. He says he thinks it's in Greeces best interests for the UK to stay in and help greece fight a rearguard action against Brussels. Very different from saying such a rash course of action is in our interests. Phil wrote he'd said its in Britains interests to leave. He hasn't written that. 'Should voters across the UK (especially after the way Greece was treated last summer) not vote in favour of LEAVE as an important step in reclaiming their Parliament’s sovereignty and their democracy?' Answer: No. From the conclusion: 'To do this, on 23rd June the British public must shun the lazy choice of LEAVE. They must vote STAY and work, from 24th June onwards, towards electing a government that can bring about the changes the EU must undergo on behalf of its peoples.' The 'never wrong' unbeliever will obviously disagree with the last paragraph being possible. But Yanis has more of a clue.

tzijlstra Posted June 22, 2016 Share Posted June 22, 2016 Just to be complete, here Yannis is speeching on the topic. I realise a lot of right wing numpties (no offence Quick...) will dislike what he has to say, but he is right, if the UK wants to influence what is happening in Europe, it has to be in. AnnaB, and other Labourites, might be persuaded by that argument. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
