    we need to move quickly. I suggest the EU act decisively and make decisions on behalf of the poles. Lets call it Blitzkrieg!

      Isn't it Austria before Poland?

        Just as I thought, the Leavers on here are in favour of right wing totalitarian governments. Lucky for them, they'll be having one soon
        Brexit is having a wee in the middle of the room at a house party because nobody is talking to you, and then complaining about the smell.

          Korbyn is right wing?

                hmm just because they still haven't organised it, oh sorry they didn't think about it until after Brexit like the EU NAAFI building.

                A European intelligence agency would take too long to set up and distract from the urgent work currently needed to tackle terrorism, said the European Commission.

                Julian King, the EU commissioner for security, told reporters on Thursday (7 September) that terrorists won't wait for the removal of all the political and legislative barriers before such an agency could be established.

                "I have to tackle the problems that we face right now. The terrorists are not waiting for us to review the treaties, they are not waiting for a constitutional discussion in Germany," he said.

                luckily they depend on us to provide them with intelligence. When we can trust them with it.

                Similar calls for the creation of an EU intelligence agency have also been made by the leader of the European Parliament's liberal group (Alde), Belgian MEP Guy Verhofstadt.

                But such plans are often seen as far-fetched given the secretive nature of national intelligence agencies and their reluctance to share information over broader fears it may get leaked, or disclose the sources.

                Last year, a former agent at the EU's police agency, Europol, accidentally leaked some 700 pages of data on 54 different police investigations.

                The EU has an intelligence analysis centre, known as Intcen, but is unable to gather its own intelligence. Most of its work is based on classified briefs, which it receives from a number of member states' national intelligence agencies.

                  People of Poland actually voted for these guys. And it seems to be doing wonders to the economy (at a cost to freedom which people seem to be happy to give - they haven't fought for it- grandfathers did and it's pretty irrelevant in times of globalisation).
                  In the fast autocratic ruling did well for the countries involved - see Germany before WWII or more recently China.
                  It's crazy, but we're only dealing with realistic options here...
