Hahaha. Funny banknote. Reminds me of Italian Lire. Now part of the Euro zone...
I thought this would be a good time to repeat something that appears to have been lost in squabbling and totally played down/ignored by Bremainers
Bremaining is NOT keeping things the same as they are. Bremaining would be signing up for another 40 years of the big European experiment.
People voted for membership of a preferrential economic trade block in 1974. It somehow became a bloated political entity which dictates and interferes in all aspects of daily life. If you'd told my Dad and Grandad the EEC would be instructing the UK government on everything from what manouvers you need to do to pass your driving test to how many hours a week you're allowed to work. They wouldn't have voted for it.
Think where it will be in another 40 years? Complete Fiscal union. Main European stock exchange relocated to Frankfurt from London, Federal Euro-police force on the streets. European Army.
Those are enough for me to continue to want out in spite of any perceived or possible disadvantages.
This is not pie in the sky propoganda, this is the genuine adgenda of the majority of the higher echelons of the European comission. And, apparently m the new French government. They are serious about it and we can't just keep on vetoing it for ever, they will just do it without us like they have with the Euro. They are genuinely dedicated to "Ever Closer Union." and it will end in flames. ____________________ “Rule one: Always stick around for one more drink. That's when things happen.

It stinks actually of a 150 year old type attitude actually. The British Empire colonies did what England told them to do because they had 1000s of troops and several battle cruisers berthed in their harbours. It ain't the 1850s any more. |
India was the jewel in the crown of the British Empire. Battle cruisers berthed in harbours here wouldn't have done much good. And do you really think we held onto India for as long as we did through sheer numbers of troops? The fact that such a small country was able to do so says as much about the people of India at that time as it does about British military prowess. Bit off topic, but I felt a point needed to be made here ____________________ Chickenystripgeezer's Biking Life (Latest update 19/10/18) Belgium, France, Italy, Austria tour 2016 Picos de Europa, Pyrenees and French Alps tour 2017 Scotland Trip 1, now with BONUS FEATURE edit, 5/10/19, on page 2 Scotland Trip 2 Luxembourg, Black Forest, Switzerland, Vosges Trip 2017

I'm actually all for a hard brexit and pick up the pieces later anyway because negatiations are going to go nowhere.
The EU aren't going to let anyone leave easily, they are just delaying, fucking about an trying to milk as much mney out of the situation as possible like they did with the Maltese. It'll land up costing more than just crashing out.
If I was ruler of the UK. Stop negotiating with the EU now, start planning for hard brexit and negotiating with everyone else. Leave on 29/3/19. No "divorce bill". Go from there.
In the meantime, I'd veto the fuck out of anything in the EU that looks to be even slightly contrary to the UKs best interests post brexit. ____________________ “Rule one: Always stick around for one more drink. That's when things happen. That's when you find out everything you want to know.”

Well, which is it to be? Borders, or no borders? Nations, or one happy clappy peaceful integrated equal tolerant plentiful world?

There you go again with your limited view of the world, making your assumptions. |
Just as you assume the EU doesn't have plans for "even closer cooperation" leading it to become a Federal State, with it's own army and central fiscal policy.
I suspect this is more likely than not and evidence is growing rapidly.
Have you seen Shultz's Tweets from earlier?

@martinschulz
A convention shall draft this treaty in close cooperation with the civil society and the people. Its results will then be submitted to all member states. Any state that won’t ratify this treaty will automatically leave the EU.
Quote: | "I want a European constitutional treaty that creates a federal Europe", said Schulz, the former European parliament president, proposing a written convention involving civil society and citizens.
The treaty would then be presented to all member states for ratification, with those that reject it automatically leaving the bloc, Schulz proposed in a speech at a Berlin meeting of some 600 delegates.
He suggested a target year of 2025, one century after the SPD first spoke of a future "United States of Europe". |
