Well Worth Reading Whichever Camp You're In I M H O

[Canary42]

A supposedly independent review of the current EU situation - rather lengthy but certainly thought-provoking (it certainly makes me re-think my views on the pros and cons).

I'm posting it for information only (I won't be posting in this thread again) and I hope it doesn't develop into another slanging match.

Happy reading !

Interesting viewpoint.
Ah; so they were really saying, "Enough" !

I don’t think this is a new angle. It suggests that people voted leave in the referendum essentially out of sympathy with the Greeks which I don’t believe for a moment

An interesting piece although much of this has been written by myself and others on this very site.

There are a couple of worrying bits. Clearly the EU project is Germany achieving by stealth what it failed to do by two world wars. Now that this stealth is becoming clear and Nations are standing up with the unfortunate by-product of the rise of the far right how long will it be before there is a war of some sort?

I didnt read that from the article at all Ick. Are we reading the same piece?

[cassa333]

I don’t think our Brexit decision has anything to do with the Greeks. Where on Earth did that idea come from?

I think the article is pretty much spot on. German led EU with stooges France and Italy, who at first thought they were up there with the big boys but have now seen they aren’t.

The UK (population if not the government who always knew the aims of the EU) was only ever after a trading bloc and if it had remained pretty much along those lines we wouldn’t be where we are now.

I think we'd all be a lot happier if we scrapped all the federalisation and reverted back to a common market type structure.

[youngmafbog]

Most of Europe would agree I suspect TTT, however that does not meet the German ultimate aim of European domination does it?

[ToraToraTora]

interesting post from an arch remainer. .....and you want to stay in this mess canary?

[cassa333]

To be fair to Canary TTT, Canary did say it’s made him rethink his views on the pros and cons. There’s hope of conversion yet lol

Funny old World. Some of us have been stating pretty much all of the points made in the article, and been roundly criticised as xenophobes and rampant right wing Nationalists. Now we have "an independent" report laying bare the lies and devious aims of the federalists and suddenly it is thought provoking and an interesting insight into the sly workings of the German and French puppet masters. The winds of change, once blowing, take a long time to abate.

[ToraToraTora]

you mean we are no longer racist xenophobic knuckle dragging moronic little Englanders? what a relief!

[woofgang]

if the rest of it is as true as the last paragraph......

[youngmafbog]

We are still thick though TTT !
