    Free choice?

    Many would argue that Hungary has the right to decongest who enters its borders but signing up to the EU’s membership regulations, I would think, removes that right. This principle was really at the heart of the Brexit debate. The EU is a left leaning pseudo nation and is almost certainly going to disagree with right leaning governments such as Hungary. Complete individual freedom will never exist in the EU and there is a continual erosion of civil liberties across many ‘free’ democratic countries.

    The Eu is run by a bunch of Liberal Leftie zealots who believe in fairies and that the moon is made of green cheese, they want an equalisation of the whole of the populous across Europe, an impossible and childish dream.

    Despite this, Europe itself becomes increasingly Right Wing.

    The more the Liberal Elite try to foist this ridiculous woke agenda onto it’s populace the more Right Wing each nation becomes.

    The EU leaders is blinkered, had they not cold-shouldered David Cameron when he wanted some changes to the conditions of our EU membership, Brexit would probably not have happened. That EU leadership is very autocratic, they believe themselves to be always correct, I can think of a number of undemocratic countries with a similar attitude. Despite the difficulties to trade and freedom of movement that Brexit has brought us, on balance, we probably made the right choice.

    I’ve said this for years Kets.

    Cameron’s weakness and the arrogance of the Eu hierarchy when he sought some changes to help keep us in the Eu is the reason we are where we are.

    If Maggie had been leader during this period she’d have won concessions but we’ll never see a leader with her level of b o l l o x again.

    If poorer means independent, and richer means as long as you do as the EU tells you then yes. I love being poorer. But I’m not actually. You’re easily bought 123.

    The country is undoubtedly poorer. But as long as I'm okay, its fine.

    Perhaps London should be independent from the rest of the UK. We're much more prosperous, so makes sense don't you think?
