Re: The Vindictive Nastiness if the EU

Are they seriously trying to blame us now for they themselves failing to ratify the deal?

They've got a damned nerve.

For heaven's sake, Boris, make up now for your previous dithering and refuse to bow to them yet again. I'm sure I'm not alone in hoping that we leave completely and become a truly sovereign nation once again.

You have no chance now the UK left. You don't have enough votes, all your money goes to Poland.

Oppression and centralisation has worked a charm so far, no need to stop now, certainly not because of the people, they don't count its all about the unelected elite.
True, but give them their due. They seem to have convinced many, if not most of their people that the dictators in Brussels are running things to the people's benefit rather than their own.

Some people, admittedly, are rather easily fooled. Perhaps if Hitler had adopted the same strategy in the late 1930s, he'd have managed to spread his Reich without any bloodshed at all!

In the case of the Netherlands he pretty much did just that

I'm surprised that the same thing hasn't happened to western Europe's industry, even the German car manufacturers, as what happened to much of our own: upped-sticks and moved to east Europe where labour is cheaper.

Of course, I believe that such a move was actively encouraged by Brussels, and whilst they were happy to do that to us, I suspect they wouldn't do it to Germany and France.

The future for the EU is to be absorbed by China. It's happening now with the Belt and Road initiative and how the EU have allowed China to buy strategic locations in the EU for stations etc and borrowed mega billions from Chines State Banks. Without their own army and also because NATO won't care, they are easy meat. They are just a big Taiwan viewed from the CCP and have a lot in common, like socialism and human rights violations, genocide et.

Oh I got confused with my school schedule again. It is history (WW2) lessons again, but I prepared for Maths. Damn.

By the way: how can a Union of something be "centralized"? If it is centralized, then it is no union (in my understanding). Therefore it can not be de-centralized.

Damn, the EU is doomed!
