I haven’t counted and I don’t know how many are very pissed off or just annoyed. I have not defended the method of appointment, but from what we know, he seems to be qualified candidate.
But they said about how pissed off the vast majority of the EU is. Yet you say they are not.
So who is lying?
So what about the Guardian and FT?The Daily Mail is biased to the right and leave campaign. Some of it‘s articles are aimed at far right sentiment.
WOW.
He is intelligent as he got a job in the EU that nobody knew was available. Nobody even knew he was in the running for it. The only person that knew was Juncker. And even he was shocked on how he got it.
But it is OK with you as he is intelligent.
Qualified in what way?I haven’t counted and I don’t know how many are very pissed off or just annoyed. I have not defended the method of appointment, but from what we know, he seems to be qualified candidate.
Which is a rag? Why?
You are the only one I can find that thinks he is the right person for the job. Can't find anyone in the EU that is happy.What a deduction... I don’t even need to comment... you just tell me what I think..
Qualified in what way?
Even Merkel isn't happy. Or at least she made out so.
So why is nobody asking me why I am not happy with the EU this evening. Because they were asking me this morning.
Divert the heat?Because it has turned to sensationalism and is taking a hard leave line. Leave won, why the heated up rhetoric? Or do they see Brexit being an almighty cock up and want to divert the heat to the EU?
Tony I’m quoting Martfacts here
I know every time he likes one of your posts you get a little semi but these are Martfacts
Oh and Tony please you must say NAZIS in block caps or Mart might be upset with you.
Oh and Tony your original point was which far right owners supported remain. Are you saying the Group that own these newspapers are not far right as Martcov states?
Is that correct Tony?
Divert the heat?
So the vast majority of the people in the EU are pissed off just because they want to take the heat off Brexit?
Martin Selmayr – the EU’s puppet master secures his futureThe Telegraph actually told you between the „German“, „NAZI grandfather“ etc..
Hello Mart - can you explain why Mentioned NAZI grandfather as Tony and myself have a different interpretation? Also can you clarify who is Monster?
At the same time can you advise if you think the Mail is a far right publication as Tony can’t confirm this for you?

He was convicted of war crimes. Isn't that good enough for you?The Telegraph mentioned the Nazi grandfather bit. You seem to be protecting the Telegraph, maybe you could explain what that has to do with his appointment and why the Telegraph thinks it is relevant?
Sounds more like you’re making your own facts up based on something Mart said.

Bless - Tony and Mart living together in perfect harmony
And back to Salmayr.Well it is nice to have someone. Not that you would know you sad loner.
He was convicted of war crimes. Isn't that good enough for you?
What I’m more interested in is your view that all right wing papers are rags and support Brexit
The telegraph has a pathetic readership and I’ve never read it to my knowledge
From the FT. Selmayr likes being called what you are having a go at others for saying.
Martin Selmayr is notorious and he loves it. While his influence is currently most keenly felt within the Brussels Beltway, the German lawyer, 46, sitting in an office festooned with euro memorabilia, jelly sweets and bumper crisp packets, is about to play a pivotal role in Brexit. Viewed by some in London as a dark force and in Brussels as possessing almost mystical powers, few doubt his crucial role in the talks that will reset Britain’s future. A half-smile crosses Selmayr’s lips as he is asked about his fearsome nicknames, which range from Rasputin to “the monster”, an affectionate moniker from his boss, European Commission president Jean-Claude Juncker. “If you look into the history of Rasputin, that can be both flattering and not — Lenin can be flattering or not,” he says. “If it means there is an efficient manager, somebody who is not a wimp, I’m OK with that. You can’t run the European Commission like a Montessori school.” When the history of Brexit comes to be told, Selmayr — an official who rose spectacularly through the Brussels ranks to become Juncker’s all-powerful chief of staff — will be a central figure. “Do you know the difference between Selmayr and God?” Wolfgang Schäuble, Germany’s veteran finance minister, once joked. “God knows he’s not Selmayr.”
And back to Salmayr.
You wanted to know why I am so unhappy with the way the EU is run. I have come out with another reason today. So what is your view on his self appointment?
He got 2 jobs in 19 minutes. He wasn't high up enough to get the job. So he took a role which was high enough to get the role he now has.
Whose Monster by the way?
You said we wanted to have our cake & eat it Mart. Perhaps the SM & CU are only part of the cake. When in the EU...we have to give up some cake. Leaving it...we have to give up some cake too.The SM and CU are not the UK‘s cake. They are EU institutions and we are leaving them, but want the benefits of being in them. Cake and eat it. We’re not getting it. Our own choice.
See I disagree with you. I don't think it is proper to compare him with a monster, NAZI grandfather etc. He may well be a nasty piece of work thoughThe article is written in the same tone as Mail and Sun. Monster, NAZI grandfather etc.. the comparison is justified.
Havent asked for that yet? Are you actually imagining that you are involved in the negotiations Mart? Or so beguiled by your EU mouthpieces that you believe all they say as gospel?That is if you want the Norway version. Norway has FOM, so no extra for the UK. Japan and Canada are different deals and don’t have FOM so that is not a direct comparison and we haven’t asked for that yet. The EU has offered a customs union, but we have to have the same regulations as the other 27 to be in it. We don’t want that either.
If you voted leave...you have already been branded as stupid by some on here. So stay home & save your hard earned cash!I would just like to congratulate everyone for their contribution to this thread. Thanks to all your support, we have now made it to 500 pages in length.
I'm now going to The Slug and Lettuce to drink myself stupid. It's the only way I might avoid getting in my car and driving it off a bridge right about now!
Exactly.I think it is amazing... how does that work? It obviously should not be possible to pull that stunt. But, there we are, or at least we, the UK are. But apart from tossers like Farage saying that this is the reason we left the EU, it is of little relevance to an ex member of the EU. The rhetoric has been stepped up to cover the government and leavers should we end up in the mire. He will be the villain, and the Germans as usual.
Hello Tony.
So why do you want a second referendum?Being annoyed and asking for a review is not the same as losing faith in the whole organisation.
That is hard because you say so much...& then contradict 1/3 of what you said.You keep making things up that I supposedly said. Stick to what I did say.
Or see Brexit being threatened...so are ramping it up to keep people focused on wanting to leave?Because it has turned to sensationalism and is taking a hard leave line. Leave won, why the heated up rhetoric? Or do they see Brexit being an almighty cock up and want to divert the heat to the EU?
