E U. Should we stay or should we leave.

A long time ago on HERE I was told not to correct anothers spelling it is considered bad manners unless you are a teacher or similar, not only that but you have to be especially careful not to make a mistake.

 

Not withstanding my reply above that remains valid, I would not like to HEAR such criticism again.

I will say what I like, when I like to whomever I wish to say it within the acceptance of the mods.

You didn’t say it.

If it's a good enough retort for the goose it's a good enough retort for the gander.

If it's a good enough retort for the goose it's a good enough retort for the gander.

If it suits you then fine, incorrect but fine, if you look at the context of the two conversations then nothing to do with geese but more chalk and cheese.

 

Personally I’m still chuckling about the other parts.

 

But, like I said, provided you can reason it to yourself then fill your boots.

And you think that the demise of late Cretaceous crustaceans is an analogy for the eventual demise of the EU?

 

Would it also be an analogy for the demise of Carthage or ancient Rome or ancient Greece or the eventual collapse of the US of A too?

 

You said you would love to 'here' about examples where evolution had been unsuccessful, so I posted a link.

 

Now you ask my opinion of it. Why? My opinion is of no value to you.

Cory,

 

The Punic wars pretty much did Carthage in. I suppose there is an argument for a Malthusian catastrophe, overpopulation or resource depletion might be a proximate contribution in Rome, Greece, EU and USA. But for the most part "war" was the cause in Carthage.

War will not be the likely outcome of BREXIT. I like Gozzers analogy of evoloution better than the prospect of war.

The govement could scarp 89-90 tariffs in the event of a no deal Brexit costing around £10 billion winners losers very interesting.

In two decades, EU Customs Union membership has not delivered clear benefits for any major UK sector.

Ken,

 

I just read and reread the document from post #8098.

 

Is this what it says: England is no longer a manufacturer of goods but rather skilled in services (my words).

 

Who didn't know that?

 

One of the recommended readings supporting the article is found at URL https://www.civitas.org.uk/content/files/itsquiteoktowalkaway.pdf

I think it is very good.

 

The question begs - Why the fu_k is the UK in the EU?

 

Appearently there is NO answer

Because we were lied to and duplicitous self serving politicians operated a classic bait and switch by yelling people they were voting for a common market while all the while planning a federal superstate.
