EU: Numbers of possible opponents? Inbuilt cabals? A propensity of 'yes/no men'? No comparison of the democratic principle?

Posters to this and other threads are remind of Rule 15 and the golden rule; there are hundreds of places across the web to read and post about politics. Not here.

But then what would he and his supporter do with their time? I hope you are not expecting some interest in cars!

If I may make just a quick reply, I hate strategic dissection to stretch emphasis leading to false representation. Perhaps one more attempt at reasonableness might be helpful!
I did not dismiss anything – merely disagreed, which might be expected surely. I also gave explanation rather than more assertion, I regret you choose not to accept that yet do not hesitate to make your own assertions anyway. I have absolutely no problems with others disagreeing with me, I welcome that because it usually tends to expand rather than just plain argue with little avail.

Part of the problem, as with many arguments, is an inability to imagine what it would be like if roles were reversed.
We English may be a "freedom loving people" but we have ruled over the Scots, Welsh & Irish for years and, whilst they all voted to stay in the EU we took them out. In this situation, being rude about them and their leaders probably isnt helping. It would be great if a way could be found to get ourselves out of this mess together but as things stand I can see at least 2 of the 3 departing in the new few years.

2 of the 3 leaving? Think there are 4 in this relationship, for the most part the English quarter are not considered to be asked what they would like.
This whole subject is considered by some to be a constitutional matter, so surely should be looked at from the perspective of all 4 nations. Last edited by Borg Warner; 25th June 2022 at 19:25.. |

I thought in 2014 the Scots voted to remain part of the UK. If the next vote was Brexit, that comes with staying as part of the UK. The majority won in both cases. Not only did Scotland leave the EU, so did anyone in the UK that wanted to remain. macafee2 |
