      'Even though the German chancellor has been repeatedly clear - in public and private - that she will not divide the ‘four freedoms’ of the European Union to accommodate British euroscepticism, it is remarkable how those hopes endure.'

      So it's now up to the German chancellor to decide what the EU can and cannot do then?

      Hmmmm...
      Because Germany have a veto vote, just like the UK. You thicko. But don't worry, after March next year we'll no longer have a veto so Germany will have even more of a say

        Christianity has the Devil. It's not essential to the idea if you do as you are told you will go to heaven but it is very handy in aligning the proletariate by giving them a sense of threat. Similarly PosterBhoys don't need the imaginary evil EU. They are attracted by the gambling - they will boldy roll the dice and win big for the UK. However the sense of control they get from arguing they are freeing us from a wicked, despotic oppressor is so, so heroic. That's why they are always smileying. They feel good about themselves.

        Brexiteers are just gamblers. They risk things when they don't know what the outcome might be. However the curious thing about gamblers is they tend not to gamble to win. They gamble to.. gamble. The process detaches them from day-to-day realities and gives them a sense of bravery, decisiveness and self belief. This is why it is difficult to bring them down to earth by pointing out the fact they lost. They aren't actually motivated by whether Brexit is a good thing for them or anybody else. They voted because of the empowering sensation they got from ticking that box and inserting that voting paper.

          Read the title, expected X-wing fighters and Luke Warmwater. Very disappointing.

            Luke and the x-wing fighters were proper rebels who were willing to stand up and firm for their beliefs, where as the Tory Rebels are more like Jar-Jar Binks, bit part characters to be laughed at but never taken seriously. A bit like Shaun, Bean and Vetran.

              JRM and allies are the Sith.

              Sith philosophy lionizes conflict as a catalyst for growth and as a tool for purging the unworthy. Members of the Sith Order adhere to master morality, are characterized by the desire to seize power by any means necessary, leveraging force (both physical and supernatural), social maneuvering, and political cunning to their advantage.

              It's no wonder that every British fascist outfit is on their side.

                      Except we know exactly what the outcome will be. We finally get to elect those who make the rules. Unlike now, when those who make the rules don't even have to bother themselves with the inconveniences of the electorate...
