EPTBut please, do point out how my TDLR misrepresented your position. I´m also curious where that 200 billion number comes from, until there is a citation I´ll asume it comes from the same place your other facts are from.

Your so-called summary is such a fucking terrible strawman that I hardly know where I would even start. And given your troll attitude I don't see it as worth the effort. | ||

So I simply don't have one. If you aren't sure you are always free to ask. Most other people here travel around enough that their country tags aren't fully satisfactory either. The alternative of course is to go all "big fat phony" as a result of your own inability to ask for clarification if something isn't entirely clear. But it's not exactly a secret. | ||

Why should anyone believe you when you talk about the direction of the EU and the perception of it by it´s citizens? | ||

But hey, keep advocating to go back to the glory days of nationalism and sovereignty. That only lead to the two largest wars in human history, imperialism and a lot of other things we collective decided were pretty bad. But we are so much smarter now. Plus no one is alive who remembers pre-ww2 times very well, so we are primed to avoid making the same mistakes again. NATO never went to Iraq friend. | ||

It might bear mentioning now that knowledge of history and study of current event articles give you enough to comment on world events. The political and economic entity known as the EU is deserving of informed discussion from all across the world, and not just from people living under its dictates. Now, if you have specifics that are somehow unknown except for those actually living in Brussels, or UK, or Bulgaria, you share the context and reasoning. | ||

Twenty years ago today Britain celebrated an election victory which brought the sparkling hope of New Labour and the youngest Prime Minister in a century. It seemed anything was possible and, as the soundtrack to the party’s election campaign promised, things really could only get better. In today’s Daily Mirror Tony Blair marks the anniversary of his epic 1997 landslide victory over John Major – with the extraordinary revelation he is returning to UK politics . For a man who sparked huge anger – revulsion even – over his decision to follow America into war in Iraq, it is a bold move. “This Brexit thing has given me a direct motivation to get more involved in the politics,” he passionately declares. “You need to get your hands dirty and I will.” Source Thoughts from any Brits here? | ||

I'm assuming he's talking about using whatever political influence he has left to try and pull some strings in favour of a liberal, remain based cross party thing, whatever that turns out to be. He certainly isn't going to be able to do anything by speaking to the public, he is too discredited after his lies led us to war. Either way its not going to help people campaigning against Brexit to have a proven liar join their side. | ||

News channels don't tell you everything. You have to experience it, but I'm sure you'd rather rely on your source of information. | ||
