    Europe, it's just so small, so poorly built, so backwards; when you're not fascist you're communist or European Union.

    A backwards country like Germany may depend on the EU, because before the EU, it was East Germany West Germany stool samples collected by the state; however, UK, we already had democracy and a strong economy, so don't need your EU, because we're not Germany.

    Before the EU it was 1, 000 years never been invaded, to the UK.
    Before the EU, it was East Germany West Germany stool samples collected by the state, to Germany.

    I don't think we view the EU in the same regard, you might depend on the EU, but we don't.

    What if we buy American?

    UK, last I remember, before this Covid-19 business, was about to diverge from EU regulations.

    Also, you ever been to a Lidl?
    It's pretty much disgusting German food.

    It's not about buying, we will bring you handouts. Without EU guidance your government isn't able to feed your people.

    :roflol::roflol::roflol::roflol:

    God you're funny.

    The EU couldn't guide itself out of a paper bag! @Blücher! :roflol::roflol::roflol::roflol::roflol::roflol::roflol::roflol::roflol::roflol::roflol::roflol:

    Why do you think UK (or anyone for that matter) would need EU's guidance (on anything)? - Maybe some loser country would view the EU as its saviour, but not us...

    The only thing that should be traveling internationally now is cargo. Otherwise a universal port, airport, and border lockdown should be in effect everywhere for a while yet.

    Your politicians failed in everything the last years, maybe Angela Merkel can manage your country after she retires next year.

    What about Brexit?

    Brexit happened, Boris Johnson got elected to get Brexit done and that's just what he did.

    You're still paying and you will ask for an extension soon. If I'm wrong I will donate 20 € to the EU campaign "Feed a Briton".

    No... Try again lol.

    It means that if a country is able to come here, then we're able to go there.
    Tell the British government, tell that to that/those government(s) too.

    I'm assuming that the flights that I've heard about from New York to London have been 100% British citizens returning home. Of course they should be allowed to return, but my point is that they are just allowed to get off the plane and do whatever they want, with no checks. At the same time, there is nothing stopping a non-citizen from entering, as unlikely as it may be at this time.

    LOL. I'm not sure if you're being sarcastic. I don't know what a flight tracker map looks like ordinarily, but that certainly doesn't LOOK like "empty skies!"

    Trust me that picture is really ridiculous when you compare to a normal day.

    Here's heathrow now
    upload_2020-4-15_8-56-27.png

    There are 2 aircraft on approach both DHL cargo - and you see those 2 aircraft side by side? They are the same FEDEX aircraft from yesterday.

    Do you think that at 09.00 on a "normal" working day at Heathrow this is the usual flight movements? And this is Gatwick which would be buzzing at the moment....
    upload_2020-4-15_9-1-35.png

    nothing...empty....closed....

    So I'm not sure what you're point is other than you appear to have some notion that the UK Airports are operating as usual?
