The English language continually evolves, and happily absorbs words and phrases from other languages, as any Raconteur will tell you.

Here we go again with the wild and inaccurate assumptions.

You're comparing a Country vs. An Institution, the EU is not necessarily one single place or point, it is a body, a partnership and group of 28 countries.

The reasons for hating the EU, are completely justified. As I pointed out a few days ago, only 10 Countries pay more in to it than they get out of it and we are one of them, while 18 other Countries, we piggyback and they get more out of it than they put in. It's an unbalanced, economic disaster waiting to happen.

Nice on Mr K; it really did made me smile.


But it does go to show that you really don't get it at all!

Re: Brexit: Article 50 Has Been Triggered !
 

It doesn't matter how many time you explain why we want our of the EU and that it's not to do with hating Europe at all. Some people just refuse to accept it and then use that as their reasoning to bang on ad nauseam about how xenophobic Brexiteers hate Europe. I'm on the record as saying I love Europe and wish the EU could have been different (i.e. a true collaboration of friendly states as opposed to a single state with a single currency and economic policy etc.) but it makes no difference to some folks. The EU's intransigence is the problem not the nations or peoples of Europe and they given us no choice but to leave.

The EU isn't europe and if you don't understand that then your too far gone to try and debate with. I love many european things not wine or cheese but i like german and french cinema, i like italian cuisine, i love the carefree attitude of most of the benelux countries. Wanting the UK out of the EU does not translate to being anti european in anyway whatsoever and to claim one is linked to the other is just another pathetically desperate attempt to frame the debate.

There are things about the USA i love and hate and yes if i had the cash I'd emigrate there tomorrow if for nothing else so i could fly my national flag and not have a vocal bunch of morons tell me it's racist. I would move to america not want the UK to become america the UK has a unique history, identity and outlook that sadly is being eroded and abandoned by more and more so called UK citizens. Biggest appeal to me for america is their belief in their country and the support they give a bit like how the UK used to be before it became something to ashamed of starting at school and i saw it with my own kids telling me how bad the UK was for what it had done in it's past.

Leaving the EU is the last chance to retain our uniqueness and to build a stronger society but that doesn't have to come at the expense of a global outlook and relationship and I've never heard anyone with half a brain that's ever said differently.

Does it matter that he never actually called America down market

Government defeats the second and final amendment being voted on tonight. 322 MPs voted against the amendment on Brexit and remaining in the Single Market and Customs Union, with only 101 voting in favour.

Lib Dem's Tim Farron is a little pissed with Jezza....

http://news.sky.com/story/live-gover...mmons-10931422

Jezza had ordered his MPs to abstain on this vote, but its seems as many as 60 defied the order. Labour Shadow Minister for Transport, Daniel Zeichner has resigned as a shadow transport minister for voting in favour of the amendment.

Re: Brexit: Article 50 Has Been Triggered !
 

All going well at Corbyn Towers is it? The way he's going, his extended family will be in his shadow cabinet soon...
I note David Zeichner seems to be unable or unwilling to differentiate between people who're pro European and those who are just anti EU.

Re: Brexit: Article 50 Has Been Triggered !
 

Both parties on Europe have considerable fault lines and nowt has changed in that respect.

Re: Brexit: Article 50 Has Been Triggered !
 

a few more votes and it'll just be jezza and flabbot unless she forgets what she's doing . still nothing like a strong opposition ....

Re: Brexit: Article 50 Has Been Triggered !
 

lol :D

Re: Brexit: Article 50 Has Been Triggered !
 

The Grauniad comments are pure gold this morning. Absolutely packed with Labour voters who seem utterly shocked that Corbyn has turned out to be pro Brexit and pro getting out of the single market. :rofl:
