I had one of those
So your view on Brexit and the EU appears to have been fundamentally formed more by family experience of war with Germany in the last century , rather than the politics / economics of the EU, well this is what I seem to get after reading your post. Apologies if Iām doing you a disservice @pap
Youāre doing yourself more of a disservice, tbf, @Cobham-Saint. Iām not sure how anyone can hover on this thread for two years and come up with that conclusion. Or even the last two weeks.
I just wanted to pull Jurgen the German up on 1940 being hilarious and irrelevant to today.
It was actually just that post @pap - I donāt recall you bringing the discussion down to a family level before.
I actually agree with this in the Fail.
Scallop Wars.
The French have introduced a āSeasonā to protect the stock of Scallops. But EU rules allow the Brits to just hoover up what they want when they want. This is a classic example of where the EU rules are stupid. (The type of thing Christopher Booker would report on).
I donāt link/post this as a brexiteer or remoaner. I post it as an example of why we got into this mess with stupid rules
Nice to see the French join the revolution against stupid rules
Weāve discussed WTO before. Hereās a pro-Brexit bunch of lawyers with their own take.
17,000 tons by the French to 1,000 tons by the British?
Blimey only 3 posts in 10 hours.
Wonder why
Maybe time to shut up shop on this thread
Thatās a view, one that I had myself, as it goes.
I would favour dropping this thread in favour of a new one.
No keep this one openā¦it will still actively draw blow-flies away from other threads on the site.
Close the thread, Cherts, not delete it.
Itās confusing, I know
From a poster point of view (ie. it will drift into the ether with no future updates) itās essentially the same thing.
Either way, thereās no need - we still need to discuss Brexit (however boring it is nowadays).
Well, the thread will be a lot quieter, thatās for sure. Perhaps folk will be more inclined to post now. Not having a go like, but we learned nothing through the repeated remote diagnoses, character assassinations and the adoption of the āmy opponent doesnāt agree with me so he must be stupid/arrogant/deluded/whateverā style of argument.
Itās not very edifying. Itās not fun to read. People will not have to read that anymore, unless of course, someone decides to take those tactics on board again. Iāve been trying not to, and donāt aim to in the near future. Iāll continue to curate and update this thread as things change for as long as it is around.
Oh look at all the same connections. It doesnāt matter where you look in the world. If thereās trouble brewing, the same people will be there.
A new American vassal state is about to be born and placed just behind Puerto Rico.
Once weāre out of the EU our embassy in the terrorist apartheid state will be moved to Jerusalem(got to show support to murdering fascists, as they will be our true masters).
What do you mean, about to be?
The UK has been a military vassal of the United States for the entire 21st century.
You have to go back to the Falklands or Vietnam to see us breaking rank.
Economically and even our laws. What a fuck up.
Not bothered about the connections then?
