I've read the great deception twice. It's a brilliant read


Another brilliant book is "The Rotten Heart of Europe" by Bernard Collins.

Its about the collapse of the Euro

That would be the book where “Princeton University's Andrew Moravcsik, whose research is heavily cited in the book, has accused the authors of "misconstruing" his work as supporting their narrative and failing to demonstrate that there were any viable alternatives to European Union membership, with Booker and North's economics being "even dodgier than their history". He further argues that their "Eurosceptic dogma" of an ""undemocratic" scheme of centralised regulation" is undermined by their own examples; that it is largely "British officials exercising their own discretion" and juggling the fate of special interest groups against the wider economy”

Looks like he hates the EU more than I do

https://www.foreignaffairs.com/revie...roika-and-euro

From what I can gather he is a book critic and a professor that lives in the USA.

I've never heard of him ... but it seems you will believe anyone that says the EU is a good thing without even questioning it.

It's quite bizarre

Same with your mate who thinks it was good that George Soros could make money our of the thousands of families who lost their homes and businesses and jobs on black Wednesday

You even want the Euro ... not even the countries in the Eurozone want that.

It really is quite bizarre.

Do you want open borders as well ?

Re: A lesson from history

I just checked...

There are 2 references from Dr Andrew Miravcsic. Both I have photographed and included in this post (see attachments)

If you look at the bottom of the page that I have photographed you can clearly see the reference to the sections those quotes including page number have been taken.

The great deception is a deception in itself, but read it as fiction and you have a pleasurable evening. I hardly could stop laughing.
