How can you say "better the devil you know", Paul, when it's not even 'the devil' you knew, it's changing all the time. It's not the same as it was back in the 70s, the 80s or even 90s, and as it grows bigger, both in population, and geographically, it's going to change even more, and I don't see it being a change for the better.

 

John.

There is 2 sides to every argument John a lot of my friends did vote out when asked the question why did you vote out immigration seems to pop up it's done now and I hope I am wrong but I think a lot of regrets may will kick in we are allready poorer and we aren't even out yet march is d-day for Britain i honestly think the government haven't a clue what's going to happen when artickle 50 is triggered but let's hope for all, the country has done the right thing time will only tell .

So we turn our backs on Europe and open up new trade deals with Donald Trump and the USA?

Surely that is a seriously worrying prospect

Having just come back from Copenhagen ,doesn't Europe appear more civilised than our friends across the water?

 

 

Perhaps you can tell me the advantages of the cfp and the cap is to the u k and is there any benefit to anyone regarding the schengan agreement.. The u k already does 20% export to the u s a so it's not a new market. And to me there are too many caveats, restrictions in remaining in this so called free market. On the radio tonight someone was on about opening up new agreements with the 54 commonwealth countries that the u k has had long relationships with in the past and that market is huge compared with the e u were the u k's share is diminishing year on year. However due to e u rules and regulation the u k can't negotiate until it leaves the straightjacket e u.

It is very difficult to prove that the EU is better or worse than the alternative because no-one actually knows what the alternative is.

I don't know why, but he always reminds me of a tortoise

 

 

Old lumbering tortoise Nigel Farage

John,

 

I can see how you would make that association with Mr. Farage.

 

The tortoise is a symbol of wisdom and knowledge, and is able to defend itself on its own terms. It personifies water, the moon, the Earth, time, immortality, and fertility. Creation is associated with the tortoise and it is also believed that the tortoise [willingly] bears the burden of the whole [political] world.

 

It's a shame more Brits don't have your keen observational intutitave skills about the man.
