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

    Voted yes for the common market in the first referendum, wasn’t allowed to vote in the second and voting with my feet now. Have my German language and my German politics and culture tests booked for December. Both necessary in order to get German / EU citizenship. What is good for Farage‘s...

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

    There is no proportional representation in the UK, but there is in the EU. What’s your point? As regards Merkel she got by far the largest vote of 7 parties in parliament. May got a higher % because there are less parties to share the vote and because of not having proportional representation...

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

    Yes of course they do... May wants to be seen as ineffective, Johnson wants to be seen as a buffoon and habitual liar, Gove wants to be seen as slimy and dishonest and the pro Brexit gutter press wants to make the government look like a group of squabbling public schoolboys... yes obviously a...

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

    I have accepted it, but I am not going to change my viewpoint that it is a total cock up and will end badly.

    Percentage wise it isn’t.

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

    Again, I was talking about the so called non existent money tree. We have money in the UK. It’s in the hands of a few. We are told that housing, roads etc are the EU‘s fault. Yes, immigrants make a difference, but there is enough money - a lot generated by the immigrants- to do something about...

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

    Read some of the posts on here. No matter what happens, it is Juncker‘s fault. Do you believe that the EU is ruled by Juncker and/ or Merkel? Do you really think that the EU is the fourth Reich or EUSSR, that Barnier is a dandy ( The Sun ) and Juncker is merely a drunkard ( The Sun )? We have...

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

    Mob rule by a minimal percentage. On one day you won, remain could have won in the next day. It was a very close call. Normally parliament decides such things after informed debate. Half the country are unhappy that we have Brexit and the more this unfolds, the more people will regret it.

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

    No it isn’t and it has not purely to do with the EU that we need classification. If there were no EU we would have 28 countries classifying products. It is about consumer protection, unified packaging and more efficient transport. In actual fact it is a benefit of the EU that we have unified...

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

    There is loads of money in the UK. Just no money tree. That is a problem. Never mind blame the EU - whilst we still can. As regards AfD, the next test is 18102017 in Niedersachsen ( Lower Saxony ). Pity their party leader in Saxony has just had his house searched by the police and the DPP. And...

    Racist ... or not?

    Do they do „White Honky Polish“ for white training shoes?

    Double decker crash

    Do we know any details yet? Why he drove into Sainsbury‘s for example? What was he doing at the time? It’s not as if there was dense fog or you could overlook Sainsbury‘s. No other drivers managed to smash into Sainsbury’s. Was he Ill?

    Racist ... or not?

    Racist ... or not?

    Are black people in any number actually offended? Or are white people telling black people that they should be offended? If it is the latter, then that in itself is racist. Would like to know how black people feel before making judgement. I am sure ( as far as I can be knowing Dove‘s campaigns...

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

    Didn’t we have a link showing that wealth distribution in Germany was different? Infrastructure should always be maintained and the minimum wage strictly enforced. You say that the economy is still good. Where then is the money tree for these things that you mention? And no it is not in the...

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

    In all probability she will be the next chancellor. No one else can form a government without her. In other words she is not so disliked that people voted for an alternative chancellor. She is no less liked than 2009. You could have asked why she was so popular in 2013. Many conservatives were...

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

    She got 33,8 in 2009 and the SPD 23%. They formed a coalition. This time the SPD got 20% and refused to join a coalition ( which may be a tactic in the hope that the Jamaica coalition doesn’t happen and Merkel is left in a weak position and than they offer to make a deal ). Where was the great...

    Er no... they would as a nation be poorer, could not repay their debt in Euros and imports would cost more. Cheap holidays for some though..;-)

    How many houses has local government built in the last 10 years according to the graph? Has Juncker anything to do with council housing policy?
