Re: Not just the young either !!!

Mms Soubry speaks of "this is not what we were promised" and "botched negotiations". Even your MeP cannot read a simple text as article 50, and understand that what was promised is legally impossible?
Is the british way of practicing politics a matter of a lot of dealing and wheeling in back chambers? That is a difference with the eu, they stick to the rules, and keep others to them too.

First you should remember other countries were in dire straits to: spain, italy, cyprus, belgium and ireland.
Second, in a union the other members support, be it in the open or onder the pretext of severe warnings.
And thirdly, there is safety in numbers, in rough times it help to weather the storm.
And of course the IMF had something to do with it, the six pack etc. Read all about it on the site of the EU.

But you are probably right that ireland would have been a member of the UK now, were it not for the EU.

Oh, well at least you admit the EU bends the rules when it suits. It just lays waste to the idea that the EU is some exceptionally honourable rules based organisation when it evidently isn't.
Your Ireland comment is meaningless.

No it was part of her conference speech. She actually said


"Yes, we've made progress, but let's not kid ourselves. There's a way to go before we can return to government. There's a lot we need to do in this party of ours. Our base is too narrow and so, occasionally, are our sympathies, You know what some people call us: the nasty party," Mrs May told a stunned conference. "
