    Hi there,

    I am Derk from Germany, particularly interested in international and US politics, so I decided to sign up here.
    Looking forward to interesting discussions, information etc.

    Kind regards

    Welcome Derk! I am pleased to have you join our community. I must say your English is impeccable and I do not think you will have a problem debating in the forums. I look forward to seeing your impressions and opinions of the world and I will see you in the forums.

    Welcome, you've come to the right place as freedom of speech is banned in your nation.

    Let's hope your nation's socialists don't take over the internet the way they have in China.

    To be honest... it will turn out more than just "a problem". According to recent police statistics burglary, bag snatching and pickpocketing are on the rise. I want to highlight that these deeds are not necessarily committed by refugees, but by international operating gangs, mainly from Eastern Europe. This unsatisfying situation could have been brought about by open, uncontrolled borders within Europe. And this, in turn, could be called a "serious problem."

    Hi Derk,
    I, too, live in Germany and just like you signed up here looking forward to interesting discussions and debates while at the same time practising my English a bit.
    However, I have reduced the time I spend on this board quite a bit lately.
    I see you are located in Nordhorn, that's not too far away from my current home town. I live in North - Rhine Westphalia.
    Hope you'll enjoy your time here.
