    Shut up Luxembourg!

    Nett taker of over £2 billion a year Luxembourg ( despite being one of the richest countries per capita in the world! ) talking down to the U.K. who are a nett contributor of around £8 billion!

    Luxembourg’s PM is happy for demonstration s to take place seeing as they were British remainers chanting for him to “save them”.

    FFS........talk about the pathetic leading the deluded!

    Boris did the right thing refusing to be heckled.

    Apparently we asked for the press conference to take place indoors and the Luxembourg PM refused to do so!

    Another political Nomark!

    Sheffield, Leeds and Newcastle have about the same population as this so called country. We should only talk to net contributors.

    We should insist that we never give them a single vote in any future eurovision song contest.

    One thing many of the Remainers who found this funny are missing is that this wasn't a calculated snub against Boris, it was a calculated snub against the UK and the PM of a sovereign country. I imagine this grandstanding fool and his tin pot nation probably think they've scored a few points when all they've done for many is add more reasons as to why we need to quit this lot come October.

    I felt it was a calculated snub too, but while Xavier Bettel may have been grandstanding he's not a complete fool. I imagine it had more to do with currying EU favour regarding future tax haven status than pouting his chest out. I'd also imagine he's invested in some knee pads given the amount of head he'll be giving the Germans between now and the end of October if he wants his country to rise from number ten to nearer number one in the list of European tax havens. One thing's for sure, he couldn't give a toss about who he may or may not upset over here. Interesting times.
