You are missing the point again Watford.
They want to get rid of Nato and have this EU army. Would you want to have a defence force with the French and Italians?
Seriously people need to understand the importance of this.
Deeply iffensive comment. I understand your 15 minuter of glory. Johnson and the Rees Moggs made you feel important but they have little to share with most commoners. They live on Ivory towers just like the EU chiefs. I still believe the silent majority does not share your childish euphoria.

Mate stop embarrassing yourself. You are a small country in monatray terms to us.
Ire GDP 333.7 billion
UK GDP 2.622 trillion
Ellers our GDP per capita is the 5th highest in the world. The UK is no. 27. Stop embarrassing yourself Ellers. We have had the highest economic growth in the whole EU for the last 6 years. Our average wage is about 7k euros higher than UK. Our standard of living is far higher. Our standard of education is far higher. UK who?

It's true though.
 
That’s one way to describe correcting a load of demonstrably false posts.
My posts are facts. The figures shown are facts. the Uk is Irelands most important trade partner... without us they would be in big do do. That's why they were so scared of a no deal. Stop getting involved with factual posts stick to winding up Col. :emoticon-0148-yes:

You started rambling on about Irish debt when they’re in lower debt than us and are a richer country than us by any fair comparison.

Gosh Ellets you need to stop reading the Daily Mail/ Express. Our biggest trade partner is the US which accounts for 41% of our trade. The UK is about 14%. We are not scared of a no a deal. We would prefer a deal but hey, we have principles.

I said we our GDP is a lot more than theirs and we can manage our debts better. Don't forget we bloody bailed them out of trouble 3bn which us tax payers are paying for.
 
That's okay Finglas... as Col alluded to you seem to have a problem with the UK. I don't mind mate but stop trying to make Ireland sound like Switzaland because it's not.
If I try to make Ireland sound like Switzerland, stop trying to make Britain like the US. You are no where close.

This isn’t actually based on anything though whereas by the measures stated they appear to be managing their debt better.
