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

    She isn't getting the 45% in France either, which you said would show how far right and anti EU she has moved France. I think Brexit and Trump are working wonders for the EU. You just have to look at the chaos in Britain and the USA to see what can happen if you actually believe what Trump...

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

    Another result today was the Landtagswahl in Schleswig-Holstein where Merkel's CDU got a great result... and the party which people on here believe the silent majority in Germany support, scraped over the 5% hurdle ( which is designed to keep weird parties out ) with 5,9% - This might change...

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

    They are negotiating from the perspective that FOM still exists. They want guarantees that, should May go for hard Brexit, migrants' living in other countries won't have to leave their homes and jobs. A perfectly reasonable demand from the point of view of people who actually give a shit about...

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

    I don't know why socialists would want to leave the EU. The EU was set up against nationalism and has workers rights - such as maximum working hours - enforced by law. I would have thought the European socialists were fighting in unison for the less well off via the European Parliament. Why...

    We are the ones who want to cut EU freedom of movement- not Merkel. We started it......

    One word: unbelievable. Taken in the negative sense.

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

    Well, some think the current policies are right - but not the leadership..... the leadership is tainted for many people e.g. for support of terrorists. A modern labour would have fresher people as leaders and would have been stronger against Brexit before the referendum. I think the leadership...

    32000 crowd

    Didn't we reduce the price at the Crewe game to get over 30000? Two out of town hedge funds came to Cov. One has a 'shit' product and is aiming for a sell out. One has a potentially great product and has just seen it's product be further cheapened. I tend to be more angry at the ones who...

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

    He is a 70s Bennite. Farage is 70s NF btw. Not my scene - I was there (70s), but have moved on. The world has moved on. The U.K. needs a modern opposition- Corbyn is history. The policies are apparently ok. What I can't understand is, why the Labour Party doesn't ditch him in order to get power...

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

    It is too early to predict accurately, but I think that as far as trade deals are concerned we will be worse off. I don't know definitely of course, but we will be out on our own and are just leaving a powerful trading bloc. The house prices are supposed to be high because of EU immigration and...

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

    Good move... sell at the top of the cycle... many on here point out that house prices are too high because of the millions of EU immigrants.... At the moment you are selling in a relatively prosperous EU country. Good time. Maybe the prices will fall as a result of Brexit. It is too early to...

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

    Well said. Nothing to do with democracy- but let's divert attention to the undemocratic and intransparent EU... always works. Until we're no longer in it.

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

    And... ( see above post ) it seems you and so many others have not got a clue about who Merkel is, what she represents and how the German system works. You hear things like' mad Merkel' from Farage, UKIP, Murdoch and Trump - and lap it up. You hear crap from the same people about 'sovereignty'...

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

    1. I said almost. Meaning massive majority ( predicted) and no opposition for the time being. 2. Merkel nearly always is part of a coalition. She is not a president and her coalition partners can pull the rug from under her feet at any time should she break the coalition contract. Her party's...

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

    They think it is a mistake for Britain and that it will have negative consequences in Germany. The Germans see it as a lose lose situation. They find it hard to understand- it defies their sense of logic. Property prices are rising dramatically in Frankfurt- so at least some Germans think they...

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

    Are you blaming Luxemburg for surrendering? The Luxemburg army is about 300 strong at the moment,. I suspect the German language was more important to them then as now. Their own language is similar to German.. Anyway, it is strange that everyone is up in arms about a little negative quip by...

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

    I suspect it was just a joke come wind up.... his little tee hee... not a statement of fact or a threat to he English speaking world... a bit like the style of Farage... but has been lapped up as justification for jettisoning ourselves into oblivion as far as trade deals go...

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

    Which part of my post is "dream world"? The Germans I know think Brexit is a big mistake. The Germans are interested in the Chinese car market. There will be problems with customs delays for people like auto parts manufacturers if we are not in the single market. The EU has made it very clear...

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

    We need each other, which is why I am against Brexit. We had a good deal before we triggered article 50 and told the EU we were "bloody awkward". I would rather complain to the brexiteers who are responsible for this almighty fuck up.
