PaulT Posted June 1, 2013 Share Posted June 1, 2013 Now now children start behaving otherwise you will all be sitting on the naughty chairs.Qs longing for a Federal Europe where everyone loves one another and war is no more made me smile.I thought of the UK, you know 'United' Kingdom. Here some of the Scots want independence from the UK. Some of the Welsh look with envy at how Scotland has more control of its affairs than Wales and would like more control and indeed independence. Then we come to Northern Ireland. Here one section of the community wants to remain part of the UK whilst the other section want to be part of another country, and Northern Ireland has its own Assembly. What chance for all the countries of the EU being happy? Please remember there was what to all intents and purposes was a war in Northern Ireland.The hatred being shown by some Greeks towards Germany I also find strange. Here is a country that is essentially bankrupt. Another country is willing to lend it money but imposes terms trying to ensure that it gets its money back. You try going and seeing your bank manager and saying 'I am absolutely broke, cannot pay those I owe so please give me a load of dosh for me to do what I want without any terms and conditions' and see what he or she says. So why should a country be able to say that to a lender? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote]Some of our MPs spend very little time in Westminster - take a certain Gordon Brown who has been extremely elusive of late, some would say perhaps a pity he has not always been elusive. Probably GB has an even poorer record than perhaps NF, if his record is poor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I see to remember Farage bragging some time back (May 2009) that so far he had received over €2M in expense claims but had (illegally*) donated them to his party. He must be up to around 4 or 5M by now. Nice (and easy) money if you can get it.http://www.electoralcommission.org.uk/__data/assets/pdf_file/0009/102501/to-donations-rp-mono.pdfhttp://www.guardian.co.uk/politics/2009/may/24/mps-expenses-ukip-nigel-farageSeems to me being an MEP can be very profitable even if you don't want to be in the EU.
