Re: First Day ...

H

The EU has nothing to do with us at all after we leave.

Why all the hassle?

We are leaving to set our own path in life,

We stand or fall on our own decisions.

The EU owes us sod all, we are a competitor.

It will be time for our Politicians to deliver.

No escape, no excuses.

Entirely down to Corbyn or Boris.

They are not the original population of the territory, but residents transferred by the colonial power, the United Kingdom.

With respect to that competition, boris and his deal are preferable over corbyn.

Go there, they are more British than we are....

You should take a good look at the regions of the EU, or "The Colonial Fatherland" as its known in Germany.

Germany returned the colonies it once had, and isn't on the UN list. The UK is, with 9 of the 16 territories on the list. You are still a little empire of sorts, let's call it a pygmee of an empire?

Your missing the point.

Again, you're slating the UK because of its "pygmy empire" and how awful it is, but in complete denial that the EU will be the empire you hate so much as soon as it gets its army.

Like I've said time after time after time, I really don't care about empires - I don't let them bother me, you're the one with the outrage.

The UN is a dysfunctional, useless socialist organisation that does nothing except spend other peoples money and delivers nothing (a bit like the EU). Who cares about the UN ? Certainly not me.

You should be more concerned about the EU economy and how to pay for your army. In the past 5 years it turns out Germany owes NATO about $140 billion and if it doesn't start coughing up, Trump will "have to do something with respect to trade" - in his own words.

Squeaky bum time for the 27 left at the mercy of Ursula Von Der Leyen - blame her, she was the one not committing her money to NATO like Germany promised over those past 5 years.

I told you before, look at your own postings. In # 17 you brought up the subject of empire. So that puts you down.

The concept of NATO is beyond your grasp. Several other posters, notably swimfeeders explained to you the principles of that organisation. Your remark about germany owing money to NATO shows you have a lot of studying to do before you can contribute to a discussion. Take all the time you need.
