    The EU: In, out, shake it all about....

    I am not trying to change anything, we’ve been all through this before. Yes, the German government should have acted quicker and so should the EU. People did not know the extent of this for years and then were hit with it. It does not mean that all other cars are clean. All car manufacturers are...

    Who is killing people? Germany? I didn’t know that was german policy. There are comparative works on the difference between official emission limits and those of some German cars.

    No more, if not less, than in the UK. Tusk is spokesman for the European Council. He doesn’t rule the EU. The Council and the Parliament hold the power.

    1. I didn’t say Tusk was wrong. 2. You said Germany was getting away with looking after it’s own businesses in a proposal that has only just been put forward and is limited to certain businesses and certain conditions which you are not aware of. Germany also wants the EU rules changed on...

    Oh really? Tusk was elected as president of the council by elected representatives of 500 million people. What he said is totally right. Even leavers should accept that, unless they are of the ones pushing Brexit without a plan.
