    Explain why the EU needs the UK and why the UK does not need the EU.

    The EU is held together by the most powerful thread ever, money. They are merchants and have woven a world wide net with their trade treaties and it makes them very rich.
    Its a European tradition, going back to the 900. The Hanse, it still exists.
    You have no idea what you are talking about, the EU is more united and stronger than ever before, thanks to Brexit.

    I'm sure thinking that makes you feel better.

    I mean who wouldn't want to be a great leader like Trudeau or Macron.

    Made myself laugh.

    Tell that the US, the only country which invoked article 5.

    Did not Trump defend NATO against the criticism of Macron at the last summit ?
    NATO being brain dead.
    You wonder why they laugh their arse of , including Johnson.

    Please get real.

    Oh I see.

    Well let me tell you that it doesn't bother us when incompetents laugh at us.

    Maybe they should spend more time learning how not to **** up their own countries instead of spending so much time knitting at the water fountain.

    Didn't Trudeau just lose the equivalent to 500k US jobs and hasn't France been burning for over a year now?

    You'd think they'd find time to do work, but then, they are leftists.

    They're both probably wondering where the President of a country goes for their welfare check.

    Looks to be another perversion of democracy, guess the US isn’t the only one with this issue.

    Sorry bud, they are laughing their arses of, including Boris Johnson, the new hero of the US right, because Trump is such a idiot and can be played that easy.

    Nato is brain dead and Trump rushes to the rescue of a institution he called obsolete.

    That easy and they are laughing their asses of.

    I suspect your posting has more to do with someone else's emotional problems.

    And they were rejected overwhelmingly by margins not seen since Thatcher.

    Over on democrat underground they are freaking out because the solution to a bold Nationalist was supposed to be a proud socialist.

    NATO is a scheme to get the US to pay for Europe's defense, it isn't 1949 anymore.

    I have no idea, how you bring in US Reps and Dems. This was a vote about specific problem in the UK.
    Brexit and how it should be done. Tories and Labour wanted Brexit, but had different ideas how to do it.

    Let me remind you the US is the only country of NATO which invoked article 5. It is the US which uses NATO for its defense and has cost its partners in NATO billions and hundreds of fallen soldiers.

    Yes, I have been following this since 2016. Brexit wasn't supposed to be voted in.

    This is local news coverage-do you disagree with any of its specifics?

    Similar to the Hillary defeat,
    the media has an attitude of
    The People Voted Wrong, Again.

    If you haven't noticed, I am against the current NATO. The mission ended. Europe can defend themselves from Russia.

    Jeremy Corbyn is a ****. (Rhymes with bunt)

    I couldn't be happier.

    Brexit won and just like here the liberals try to cheat to win.

    And just like here they will continue to try to cheat to win no matter what the people say.

    No, they're defeated, we won as we always do. What's interesting in the elections is that SF's vote actually went down and the SDLP has experienced a resurgence, if they repeat this at the next assembly elections we could reopen Stormont.

    I would contest that. the British (Aussie, Kiwi, Canuck, etc) system means you don't have an executive from one party warring with a legislature from the other. It also means you can have coalition governments rather than the same 2 parties trading power back and forth giving people more choice.

    Well yeah, that was the original intent, the "economic reasons, for the benefits," not for an authoritarian superstate.

    I'm surprised the Europeans have not gotten tired of giving the US a free ride on defense for all these decades!
