If only someone had set up an organisation dedicated to preserving peace in Europe after that war... like a union of members, to share resources...... nah, probably wouldn't work Edited January 22, 2019 by Magilla Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As I have said many times before the EU is a very dangerous organisation, getting way too big for its boots. We joined as a 'Common Market' - to assist with trade etc. Now we have a flag, a currency, an anthem, OPEN BORDERS and now an Army - what could possibly go wrong ? Each passing year its more Europe, problems in a country = more Europe. Lets get out whilst we can. You are of course aware that the EU already has and had agreements in place that mean that if any foreign power attacks one of its members, it will retaliate collaboratively? No? Not heard of NATO? The only reason the EU is moving towards an EU army is because increasingly nations are aware that collaborating on this front will lead to efficiencies of scale. A bit like the UK signing a treaty with France to work towards a joint army/navy/air force - a treaty that will survive Brexit by the way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How did these people get here. Foreign languages are common place on public transport etc, I assume by the language they speak, the are not British. How did the Roma get here ? The Poles, The Romanians ? Oh no! Foreign people! IN SHEFFIELD! Not Roma, Poles, Romanians! Terrible!!! I can stay though right? I am Dutch after all? Fortunately before the EU there were no Caribbeans, Pakistanis, Indians, Chinese, Americans, Australians etc. etc. etc. in Sheffield. So closing the borders will stop all of this instantly, correct? Racist. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Countries wanting to leave Failed currency They may have got leave to remain, they may be asylum seekers, they may be studying here, working here. What's the problem with that? I welcome a Britain that is diverse. Broadly, it enriches our society and gives us a different perspective on the world. Many are employed in the care industry which I also have spent my adult life working in. Unfortunately many of the indigenous population think is beneath them, some of whom complain about foreign muck while reading their Sun newspaper.

L00b Posted January 22, 2019 Share Posted January 22, 2019 (edited) Just caught the news about James sunny uplands arch-Brexiteer Dyson moving his UK HQ to Singapore in the coming weeks or months, citing "future-proofing reasons"... ...I'm sure Singapore's ultra-low corporate tax and very recent FTA with the EU had nothing to do with these "future-proofing" plans I mean, why move? After all, the plan for the Brexited UK by like-minded Brexit-pushing captains of industry is to become the european Singapore, right? And then ardent Leavers are scathing about Remainers for not getting behind Brexit! Edited January 22, 2019 by L00b Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You know those wars were over 70 years ago, fought over reasons long since gone, by countries unrecognizable from where they are now. I've forgiven them, you should too. Bizarre. You're not familiar with the rise of the far right in modern Germany then? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
