More Farage wisdom

[darmstadt]

Why does the EU seem to be working very well for me, and Mr Darmstadt, and some others on the board, and not for the rest of you? Is it because of you yourselves?

An interesting question, I'd like to see an answer too as I know why it works for me but not for many of those here, strange...




















(I believe it works quite well for a certain Mr. Farage as well but we won't go there)

I know why it works well for me, too.

So why should I be bound by an accession 62 years ago without having a vote?

Most of the laws you live by were written before you were born too. So what?

Because it's a completely nebulous statement.

It's inviting the question "in what way is the EU working well for you and Mr Darmstadt" and I suspect most of us have too much work to do than deall with MTT in full flow gushing about everything the EU has done for him.

That's exactly what most Germans used to say in the 1930s, as they gradually and unwittingly voted themselves out of a democracy ..

It's not a statement, it's a question, and you don't want to answer it. It's also directly related to vetran's statement that he feels the EU isn't working well for him.

Heh what?

The aqueduct? And sanitation?

The queen is the head of state, not a law. In a democracy we expect the head of state to have a democratic mandate. This is the critique, which I share, of Barroso's position.

Why on earth would anyone object to a head of state having a democratic mandate, and for the time being, I'm sure the queen would win, so don't panic about that.

[OwlHoot]

Yes, so you vote 'no' twice.

and if a majority voted 'yes', would they bother with another vote then?

I'd find it very hard to believe you think they conceivably would.

So in that event a large chunk of democracy would be gone for good.
