    Mate, you're banging your head against a very thick wall there. In Pete's little world we will only allow in the people we want - The EU will have no say in it. The world will bend over to do trade deals that suit only us, etc. The whole world will fall over themselves to please us!...

    Oh, and of course, Nigel the sage of Britain has saved us all from that nasty old EU. And soon all the darkies will be on a boat home!...

    There's more to government than trade deals.
    If you want to talk to countries about trade deals and some like to go at a slow speed we deal with the countries that are more dynamic first and the slow ones follow. I know we can't insist on a country being dynamic. It's just a normal fact of life. It shouldn't be an issue. Plenty of countries get on with things. I think too many people think that because the EU is slow that every country must be slow.

    If the EU said we can only have access to the single market if we accept freedom of movement then we say no.
    What's the problem?

    I've just taken the time to look through your posts from yesterday, and if you did I can't find it, or some bastard's deleted it.

    I'll ask the two questions again, so it'd be helpful if you could cut and paste your previous reply, or post a link to the reply you're referring to?. <ok>


    A consequence of the EU policy is that it favours countries that are predominantly white over countries that are predominantly black. True or false?


    Given its (UKIPS) policy is for universal controls that favour people inside the UK, in what way is that worse than EU controls that favour people inside the EU, but exclude other parts of the world?



    My guess is you'll realise that you haven't answered either of them at all and just rant again, but I'm happy to be proven wrong.

    Another point I raised was that it was the stated policy of the EU to become a federal state of Europe. I posted a few links to show that's just a simple statement of fact, and some others which show that opposition to that is far from universal in the rest of Europe.
    You disagreed with that, but offered nothing factual to support your belief, merely claiming there was no desire and that it wouldn't be accepted in a vote, but ignored the elements of creeping towards a form of federalisation that have already been enacted without a vote.

    You're still spouting pointless bollocks!

    It's not a belief, it's a fact! Europe is Europe. That's a geographical fact. Owing to its geographical location, most of its indigenous people are of a lighter hue. Strangely enough, the further south you go, the darker they get. Strange old world, isn't it.?

    You don't have a point. You keep trying to prove a non point!...

    There were some interesting comments at the bottom of the David Davis presentation. I have no idea how accurate they are, but some claimed that some of the EU trade deals were signed by the UK in its own right, and not by the EU, so with minor tweaks, they are readily transferable to an Independent UK.

    The difference is that as part of the EU countries wanted to trade with it as a priority, so the UK was at the top of the pile. Now that our market alone is worth less to those countries, we won't be as much of a priority to them. As the US said, we will be at the back of the queue.

    The EU takes too long to agree trade deals.
    What queue is this. A country such as the USA can't negotiate more than one trade deal at a time? Plenty of countries can and I wouldn't believe all that Obama says.

    It's not a point, it's a question that you STILL don't answer. I'm not trying to prove anything at all. Steve did answer it, and it opened to a wider discussion. Can you see where you ranty, ignorant replies just float off in the breeze?

    It was a ironic pun on your 'rest of the world will come and feed us' quote.

    It won't stop, but the price might increase.

    The EU might be convoluted, but quick doesn't equate to better. Even then it might actually take longer as we won't be prioritised.
