    Given that was Tony Blair and was Labour or New Labour or some bastard who created benefits culture, I don't see how Iraq applies to Theresa May or anybody since that Tory/Liberal Democrat hung parliament with David Cameron in 2010.
    There's only one thing that me and that UK hating Jeremy Corbyn agree about even remotely and that's

    Two things. First, a shift to benefits occurred under Thatcherism (with quadrupling of unemployment). Second, Iraq was supported by the Tories. Its only 'gosh he's right again!' fellows like Corbyn that believed in following international law.

    Yeah will that shift was fixed with Universal Credit under David Cameron.
    Tony Blair's Britain isn't Theresa May's Britain, If I don't trust Labour since Blair, and you don't wars since Blair, there only seems to be one common denominator here, and his name's Tony Blair; as I probably should though do with all of my heart with Jeremy Corbyn running that shop now not blame the party; I do. Because of Tony Blair and then because of Red Jeremy Corbyn.
    I distrust Labour, like you distrust UK, for the same reason:
    Tony Blair.

    So I'm sorry but if you distrust Theresa May because of Iraq then your confidence has been shaken.
    All because it's been shaken doesn't mean that it's corrupt today/now.
    When especially looking at everything The Kremlin does in the UK.

    Cameron? That pig fanatic is fortunately long gone. The Tories are currently harvesting poverty. Fair's fair, they're great at that!

    Americans would do well to avoid anyone of position in both their corporate state power structure and anyone of position in their corporate state media machine.

    You distrust the UK @Reiver
    Just another Tony Blair victim.
    But like Labour must not let him sully their God Forsaken Party.. The UK must not let him sully our name like in 2003.


    Theresa May isn't Tony Blair but you distrust her party and her country it seems.

    I'm merely logical and don't suffer from nationalism.

    The idea of May's government being trustworthy has a level of amusement! How much does a game of tennis cost again?

    Sorry, just needed to the get the sound of Hipster ******/Feminine Sanitizer out of my ears. @Reiver
    .. You do know that Russia view the LGBT community as ill and has it ever occurred to you to point the finger at Russia when Russia attack on British soil?
    As for denying access to people, that's what borders are for.

    What virus? no one's going to chop off his head...
    He's lying to you in his song as he sings of worrying in bed.
    No one's lying, no one's chopping trees down on Parliament Square;
    Britain First should not mean Britain Last.

    Who's this we?
    Will Varley and @Reiver
    Will Varley and Reiver don't believe you...
    Still doesn't make it a lie.

    Quite simply, Will Varley's afraid, doesn't know why he should be scared, but is still scared.
    He's quick to accuse and take what's not his and say it's all of ours.
    And I for one don't think he'd believe the sky is blue if a Tory said it, so, you know, less Paranoid Hipsters, more freedom.
    The Freedom to have Global International Business in London and not to listen to him say it's bad because it's foreign that Racist Piece of ****.
    Did you hear his lyric suggesting Global Business is bad?

    There's nothing wrong with Socialism, it's just that there isn't much of it to be had. Look around - what do you see? Fascism ...... and one or two Socialist reformers who are getting the life squeezed out of them by the globalist scourge.

    If this Dutch-Franco company that won the contract to make UK passports in France uses public money then; the UK have to pay an EU divorce bill which trickles down into a national government who in turn use Britain's money to undercut Britain using public money/what was my money; to pay for companies to win bids from the UK.

    If it's socialised, it's probably paid for by Britain since The UK pretty much paid for EU Expansion and paid for poorer countries like Spain to be bought up to code/British money paid for all of that.

    But once that divorce bill is paid, it's over, no more money due/owed.
    So the EU in the meantime better invest my money wisely, which if that winning company used any public money, the EU then did invest quite wisely, to screw the UK with money we send them.

    My advice is the only advice you'll get - cut your loses and run or just do a bunk. Brexit has a lot of friends. If Visegrad can fold its arms and turn its back on Brussels so can you. However you solve it you've got my support. How much do you need?

    [​IMG] Well it's America and NATO who are still playing war-games on Russia's border, so I guess that does amount to sabre-rattling; and if you were being threatened, you'd adopt a defensive policy wouldn't you? Jeezus am I really needing to say this?? :wall:

    I so want out of NATO. Since 1992 it has turned ****, getting ******* each day.
    The opposite of increased security.

    The problem is the primary part of the NATO alliance that is worth keeping, America, is the primary driver in NATO's expansion.
    The core problem with it.

    Trump said he'd end NATO, let's hope that is another election commitment he keeps.
    It could certainly do with a radical overhaul.

    The EU divorce bill.,
    To the EU eyes, it is just the EU membership bill.
    To the UK eyes, it's a bribe for a trade deal with the EU.

    £5 says we pay the bill and get a **** deal we don't want.
    In keeping with our governments firm policy of Britain Last.

    I'll make a prediction - the UK will never leave the European Union.

    Those "war games on Russia's border" are conducted in a NATO country.

    Perhaps you believe that no country contiguous to Russia should ever be a part of NATO? (That is what the old Soviet Union believed; hence, "satellite" countries.)

    Yes. This was agreed with America in the disintegration of the USSR. And under these conditions the USSR disarmed and gave independence to its republics. But the United States did not care about all the contracts. And then he also has the impudence to accuse Russia of taking care of her surroundings.
