    I see you're still stuck with your feeble strawman style.

    I'm happy to discuss things, you seem more inclined to argue. Sadly, you're not very good at it and the swerves are all yours.

    That's fine, but you seem to keep trying to make assumptions about replies that simply aren't accurate, even try to change the context of replies and then try to make the argument about that. It's futile and pointless, but does seem to fool a few on here.

    I absolutely agree with this, Russian roulette with the economy to satisfy what I have to believe is a very small number of racist bigots.
    However, what I challenged Stan on, which seems like a lifetime ago now, is this comment that I keep hearing from a number of people that we can change things from within. My beliefs are that if we had voted to remain, then it provided a mandate for no change as we must all be happy with the EU. If we're all happy, what needs to change?

    It's not narrow minded to ask people to source there claims, but it is narrow minded to dismiss there opinions when they decline. It's you that has mentioned the daily express, UKIP and the way I voted, just because I really can't be arsed to run off and provide the sources you so desperately crave. As I said, I don't care either way.
    When I spoke around Greece's membership to the EU, I was referring to them meeting the requirements of the Euro, which I believe is a fundamental requirement that all member states and potential member states now need to meet. In terms of Greece becoming a member of EC, this was way back in the early 80's. I also believe that Turkey are conditional members of the EU now.

    I don't normally resort to personal abuse based on physical characteristics, but **** me, it's hard to resist an open goal like that...<laugh>

    Yawn, you've simply avoided the point made.

    We both know why

    Well it's kind of a moot point now, but I think it was common knowledge throughout Europe that the UK was and always would be an opponent of federalism. It was also common knowledge, and accepted by our partners that we would be staying well clear of the single currency for at least a few generations. The tragedy is that we have now voted to leave the EU at precisely the time we were beginning to win the arguments for a looser, more flexible and less politically centralised union

    You've answered the question by resorting to your standard MO since. So it's fine.

    Your earlier admission that you're a bit thick, is probably the most accurate post you've ever made <ok>

    He's actually bang on. I'd like to see you debate why you think he's deluded but it's well beyond you.

    As for free school meals, ignoring the obvious joke about the many meals you have consumed, you've not been a schoolchild for half a century.

    No I haven't. I refrained from stating the obvious about your angry buddy, just as I am now refraining from giving you the sort of monstrous slagging off you appear to be begging for..

    It wasn't a question worth answering. Like so many of your posts, it was a piss poor attempt at bastardising a point you couldn't argue.

    I'm thick, but not thick enough to fall for your **** strawmen. <ok>

    You have a decades old photo of yourself as your avatar for a start. Fair to say even just from that it will have gone downhill since.
