[Husar]

You don't really get this democracy malarky do you?

How is London not wanting to pay for Wales any different from Britain not wanting to pay for Poland?

19 weeks...


As for an exit in 2017, or 2018, or 2020, or 2030, the UK will continue to decline economically beyond the scope of its ancient regional relations, or the hourly and daily fluctuations of stock exchange figures. And for all the 'more or less', sovereignty is the thing that is affected least by the outcome. More sovereignty even in maintaining membership while illegally cherrypicking standing EU obligations to the point of sanctions.


On a side note, to truly appreciate the rhetorical work of a politician with respect to the development of policy, one must be prepared to view all people as enemies - in a Hobbesian sense.


I'm not back. Not yet.

Will you have stopped sulking in 19 weeks?

[Fragony]

Yes, you could see it if you wanted to.

Going to go all EU-style on you and just dismiss everything you bring up even if it makes sense, and call you a hippie if I don't have an answer.

Nigel Farage has reacted with fury after Vote Leave said it would exclude him from a cross-party committee which will negotiate Britain’s exit from the European Union. The UK Independence Party leader said that he would use his position as head of the Ukip group in the European Parliament – the biggest group of British MEPs – to ensure he had a say over the terms of British breakaway from the EU. Senior Vote Leave sources on Friday made clear that Mr Farage would not be invited to join the committee negotiating the Brexit. One told The Telegraph: “Nigel Farage’s involvement has come to an end.” Mr Farage responded furiously. He said: “I just don’t understand these people – they will never give me credit for anything. "I have tried for nearly a year to work with these people and fight on a common agenda and they don’t want to know.”

Makes you wonder why they wouldn't let his campaign become official and government funded. Are we going to get a bad deal now? Because Nigel Farage is a man true to his word the higher up knew this and pre planned in the event of a brexit, I bet we are going to get stuffed I trust Nigel Farage to fight for us and the common people more than Boris and Michael Gove. Carswell and his Tory team want to keep Nigel away from negotiations where they want to avoid immigration reduction.

Because, to date, London has not exercised sovereignty independently of England.

Well, there used to be the Kingdoms of Wessex, Mercia, ....

Wessex became England, and Wessex was the one that turned a large walled settlement into it's capital. Before that it was tossed around between sussex and the danes IIRC.

You're still wrong, you hippie.

Freedom for Sussex! Let Mercia take back control! Northumbria for Northumbrians!

[Fragony]

You're still wrong, you hippie.

You are doing it wrong, I am supposed to be the fascist in the Grand-EU Theater.

[Husar]

I dont think there are all that many people in my area who knows that Essex used to be a kingdom either. Honestly the idea seems about as absurd as meccan independance from Arabia.

As does the idea of Britain prospering independently from the rest of Europe.
But look at the cultural differences, not only does London have a completely different culture from Wessex, they also don't speak the same language as they do in Manchester. London could take back control of its money by parting from the rest of the annoying bunch. Manchester could then raise the taxes for the rich to benefit its working class, especially because there'd be no rich people left to complain. Wessex could just bask in its nationalist glory without having to share it with others and so on.

You are doing it wrong, I am supposed to be the fascist in the Grand-EU Theater.

According to your own political theory, I can easily out-fascist you if I just move a bit to the left from a socialist position.

Winchester or Camelot?

Let Mercia take back control!

They will once they choose someone named Offa for their leader.
