I wouldn't waste my time listening to what they had to say Swords. They are the most sectarian bunch of idiots going and are still stuck in 1690.
Why did you say the "Brits" in quotation marks like that? What did Johnny Giles ever do to you? How the hell will YOU be paying taxes for those debts? (I hope you're not referring to that 6bn that the Government gave because that was purely out of self-interest to protect their own investments.) Imaz, Buthead and Munich Ranger all complained about your "banter", not to the Mods but on the very thread right before your very eyes! Patriotism is about loving ones Country. Your warped idea of it is bashing everyone else's! And no, I think you'll find most posters on this Site don't agree with your "Tribalism Culture" RE football. A lot, for example, found your hatred of Chelsea to be quite warped if I remember that thread correctly. Time also to accept that Merkel and Hollande rule your Country almost as much as they do mine. The British people obviously want it that way or you would have pulled out of the Union by now. Thankfully the majority are not as short sighted and insular as you, Johnny Bull Its time Dinosaurs like you and COL woke up to reality because if you don't, you'll be left behind by the onward march of the people.
We pay far more in that we get out of Europe and all the countries, like Ireland, that have lived beyond their means in the 'Euro' are being bailed out by us, who are not in the 'Euro'. It's like being married to the Bride of Frankenstein. The only ones banging the Euro drum are those making out of it. Your complainants all followed the 'Pied Piper' and the Chelsea hatred is only not understood by some younger of foreign posters who have never been part of the era. There is a substantial majority of our country who agree with my view on Europe according to all opinion polls, it's only two-faced politicians like Gordon fekkin' Brown who promised a referendum in the 2005 election before he was PM but reneged on the promise afterwards, that haven't got the balls to give the country what it wants. We don't want to be part of the onward march of decline...
If that nonsensical statement is true, then why are you still in the EU? And don't give me the "the people want it but the politicians won't give it us" line. Everyone out of step except Sooper I suppose And what "era" are you talking about? I just want to know how old one has to be (including local lads) to qualify for "Soopers hatred certification".
We fought two world wars to stop Germany ruling our country. You are talking such complete bollox here! The British people would vote over-overwhelmingly not to join a federal Europe, as every opinion poll shows!! Indeed, if there was a referendum tomorrow on our membership of your corrupt band of brothers, opinion polls show that we would pull out altogether!! We aren't given the chance by the ruling elite because they know what the answer would be!! I will never be ruled by another country without a fight and nor will the majority of British people. You can roll over and be ruled Swords.....not me!!
