I was (still am) an advocate of joining the EFTA as for me it resembles a near perfect European relationship. I wouldn't even be against a Confederal Europe, so long as there was no £500 million "meeting house" filled with pointless MEP's, but that representatives of each member nations elected Government went to each sovereign centre of politics i.e. Westminster, Holyrood, Bundestag, Palais Bourbon etc. to discuss issues related to trade, with no member seemingly more dominant over another.

A "United Nations" of European Nations rather than the proposed "United States of Europe". It mainly comes dow to the fact that one MEP supposedly represents the voices and opinions of roughly 700,000 people! The bigger the politics of the EU gets, the smaller the voices of their electorate.

Who knows what will eventually be? Past events suggest ever closer economic union and thus even greater political union, so it's likely not going to be for you MB.
 
You’ve not listened to anything that’s been said for 4 years. I give up.
TBF - I think that he has - but he cannot stand that such commonsense is allowed the chance to flourish - people might start to think and question the omnipotence of the EU

It needs to be closed down...

Which is a shame, as up until 2008-10 I was supportive of the concept of the EU.

"Power tends to corrupt, and absolute power corrupts absolutely", is I think the case with this current crop of MEP's.
 
It's like a desperation to be seen as "the reference point" on anything EU related. Sadly, the only impression he gives off when he rants about people being wrong or "ignorant" on the EU is...


Ha Ha - I will never be able to see a post from him again and that not come to mind

Very good
 
I do love the phrase ‘somewhat technically correct statement’. Otherwise better known as ‘correct’.
With you it is also known as prone to disingenuous bollocks

BTW thanks - I knew you would post something almost exactly like that

I enjoy that you are becoming so utterly obvious - and less credible

To paraphrase - it has been said that a reputation of being knowledgeable is very hard to establish - but easily lost

Oh - and I have had a bet with myself on your answer to this as well

Of course - building on the - EU is not seeking an extension theme...……………..

"A former Tory MEP has urged Boris Johnson to extend the deadline for the Brexit transition period, warning of a “catastrophic” result for the economy if there is no trade deal."

So that will be that well known Leave advocate (not) Struan Stevenson

The clamour for an extension is all coming from one side!!
 
I suggest, for the rest of today only, that we all stop posting in this thread and get outside into our gardens with our families.

Life is too short not to give ourselves a break from arguing once in a while.

It's bloody lovely out there today, warm, clear skies, lovely sun. Most of us are in the UK, we don't get this very often.

Come on guys, draw a truce for today, and let's enjoy the gorgeous weather.
We can argue twice as hard tomorrow to make up for it.

I’m in the garden with my kids, I have a newfangled device called a mobile phone ;)

You do realise that most of our MEPs until 31 Jan were representing the Brexit Party, so I guess you’re right for once. At least for many of the former UK ones.

Bollocks to that it’s freezing here.

There is no challenge pal. I live in the real world I know how things work. You couldnt negotiate your way out of a paper bag. Its deniers and appeasers like you that have draged this on for far too long.

By the way , I sugest you read my first post again? Rather than twist my words to suit your appeaser argument.

You’ve just posted a three month old article.

It’s like you guys aren’t even trying.
 
Er, are we suddenly back to discussing brexit again? So the previous interactions were... pointless?

Again, i'm not "wrong", it is my "opinion" that this is where many in the EU wants to go towards based on the opinions of certain MEP's and nation member leaders such as Macron, Merkel and Varadker as examples, who support such an eventual federal Europe. So it's not "wrong", you disagree with my opinion, which is fine. You can do that, as can I. I'd advise against claiming that your "opinions" on the EU are facts; it makes you sound unhinged.

Would you also prefer "EU advocate" or "EU supporter" instead of "sycophant"? Is that less confrontational for you? Doesn't hurt your fee-fees as much?

I see you are at the (insert random babble) stage of the conversation.

I regret to inform you that you were not voicing an opinion you were making false statements. Neither Macron, Merkel or Varadkar can force their countries into becoming federal states in a United States of Europe against the wishes of their citizens. So I am not disagreeing with your opinion I am correcting your false statements.

Its like you cant read Bob!? In my first post I simply said the EU have said they will refuse to give the UK the same deal as Canada. They are on record as saying so, I then gave you evidence? doesn't matter what date it is! But what is clear is that you don't have the balls to admit you were wrong! Looks like you are the Dominic Cummings of the forum pal!
