F*ckin Brexit

[Kilgore trout]

Europe ain't perfect but nothing is. Naebody thought there was enough turkeys oot there to vote for Christmas. sadly we were wrong. I am still convinced it's nae going to happen.

Small countries have absolutely zero influence in the EU. The whole thing is a Franco-German stitch up. Look at how they have treated Greece in the last few years.

Aye, poor Greece. Basically acting like the Huns and their EBTs.

[Pacman1903]

Maybe it would be different if Greece found a bit of stability for once. Look at all the money they waste on dinner plates ffs.

So little say that Ireland have held Maybot to ransom over the Irish border. They literally drew the EU's red line for them.

The Walloons (not even all of Beligium) held up the trade deal with Canada until it was changed.

Aye, small countries eh

[donsdaft]

Break up the nation states.

Make us ALL small countries.


Germany is already anyway.

Federal Republic of Europe

European Union is a better way of saying it.

There is no Irish Border, the Irish Border would be 'the sea'.

There is a British border within Ireland, causing a few issues the now apparently, but nae Irish border.

A minor point but one which is important to make IMHO.

Explain this Buc, why do the SNP object to Scotland being run from London but are absolutely desperate for Scotland to be run from Brussels?

This utter tosh ! The UK have never been run by Brussels and neither would an Independent Scotland be. First point to make The people who make the EU's laws in Brussels are not unelected bureaucrats; they are elected politicians, accountable to the people who elected them. Second All important policies and decisions that effect Scotland are not made by the EU and not even Holyrood they are made by Westminster. Fiscal ,Welfare, War, foreign policy, Trade & industry, ..It wasn't the EU who imposed Austerity on the people of the UK causing desperation and poverty. The facts are Scotland has benefitted greatly from the EU. This ""Run From Brussels" ****e is just that ****e used by the leave campaign to great effect on the soft heads among us.

It's actually the other way round, the EU has used the Irish border to make Brexit difficult.

The EU doesn't give a toss about Ireland, look at how they screwed them over the banking crisis.
