Political relations between UK-EU

The Archbishop of Canterbury is getting in on the act.

He is quoted as saying 'The EU are a bunch of fucking cunts'.

Well in clerical language but that is what he is saying..
 
It's the perfect 'opportunity' (for want of a better word) for them to rightfully criticise the EU's actions and show to other's that they aren't just EU fanboys.

As you say, it is very telling and kudos to the ones who have done because we're all together in the criticism of this action. I'd say it's laughable but this situation isn't funny at all and do hope that common sense prevails, the EU holds its hands up and rescinds the invocation of A16.
There’s a difference, some who support EU membership, ie me, do so on the premise only of it being beneficial to the UK but fundamentally our loyalties lie with our country. Now the EU aren’t acting in our benefit and are acting in aggression towards us, my natural position is one of defence.
 
By defending do you mean posts like this in response to the Export Transparency measure?

No idea to be honest, it smacks of a panic move and the desire to be seen doing something. Short sighted in my opinion.’

Or predicting that invoking Article 16 would be binned by 10pm because it was a dumb?

See, if you just stick to the facts we wouldn’t need to have these little chats.
I can imagine what you’d have said if we acted in the same way, your postings tonight have been in defence of them and you know it.

It's not difficult is it; you can still support the EU, advocate rejoining, yet on this occasion declare that the EU have acted like cunts.

Its the Irish/N.Irish I feel for most. Even more than the UK, Ireland has had even less to do with what's gone on yet they've been dragged into it through no fault of their own, without even being consulted by those who claim to be acting on their behalf. That surely deserves criticism from everyone at least.
