How oleaginous these out-dated Bremainers still are! Kinnock personifies political misjudgement and Mandelson is about as socialist as the Emperor Nero.
It feels like a time warp, doesn’t it?
I think that EU pensions payments are liable to forfeiture if the recipient ever criticises the EU

I can back James’ comment. I’ve been asked to apply to work for the EU only to be told not to bother because I had the wrong “mentality”. That is, I’m perfectly happy being a semi-civilised, Anglicised Hun and see no need to be a “good European”.
That’s what makes Britain GREAT, CT! (Don’t tell Jazz.)
Janus: I’ve been to many countries. The United Kingdom is among the best. Is it free of its failures, foibles, short-comings, disasters and nightmarish aspects? Certainly not. It’s a deeply flawed country populated by a people just as deeply flawed as any other. On balance, Britain does far better than most.
Deeply flawed? How very dare you? 😉
Janus: You, of course, are not deeply flawed.
That rather depends on your source!! Remember: one man’s flaw is another man’s whatsit.
I’ll defer to Backside and blame Alex Salmond.

In the days when we built 90% of the world’s ships, were leaders in nuclear technology, jet engines, textiles, chemicals ……… Yes we were great. Now ?? Not so much. We gave it all away, or rather the overeducated liberal numpties that rule us did.
However if Janus and co want to keep their heads in the sand what do I care.
Ah well! Greatness is achieved by less tangible qualities too – and undereducated types will never understand. 🙂
Junus, I maybe uneducated by your standards but I’m not stupid. I love my country but I’m not blind to her faults.
Just as well we live far apart otherwise I might be tempted to pop round for a cup of tea.
There you go again! I may be overeducated by your standards but I’m not stupid. I love my country but I’m not blind to her faults. Some of my best friends who come to tea may share your opinions. 🙂
This post gave me the vapours. I must rest.

That’s a thought!
It’s a fact.

We’ve only got your word for that.
Trust me, I’m joking. 🙂
