You and Benji are saying the same thing. Benji is right. You are right.
No one is an imbecile for not understanding and no one is too stupid and in need of pictures.
At least not over this particular position
Scotland DOES want to be part of the EU and NOT part of UK. UK IS pulling out. It is fait accompli. They are dragging a disagreeable Scotland with them. It is a stupid situation.
BUT I say in the spirit of Braveheart remaining independent from Britain is.....brave
I think that the EU is on a knife edge at the moment. I sure as Hell would not bet on it being around in 5 years. IF France remains in the EU then maybe. IF Le Pen wins this year or next election and removes itself from the EU then she will be the wound that eventually kills them. France, Germany, Spain, Italy and The Netherlands are the foundation. Take away any one of these and you weak the EU possibly past recovery. Take away Germany and there is no EU at all.
EU survived Geert Wilders BUT he came a lot closer than he should. Marine Le Pen? I like her and I think she has a real chance to take France out of the EU. IF she does then I do not believe that the EU will die straight away but die it will. I think depending on how many non-EU stanced politicians from Italy, Spain and Netherlands are emboldened depends on how quickly it does.
