    If you wanted to destroy the EU ....

    sasguru... you'd pretty much do what the Donald is doing now.
    The Chinese in particular must be chuckling away.
    Why do you think he's doing that?
    Because the EU is an irrelevant liberal elite bastion of none nationhood and the US, China and others want to get back to carving the world up amongst themselves without the moaning ninnies of the EU getting in the way with their constant whinging

    The UK should join the euro. Then the EU 27 would leave in no time.

      Trump has said that the EU have been winning the trade war for decades.

      I'm alright Jack

        Trump will only have said that because he felt it gave him an advantage.

        If it was genuinely true he would not mention it as it would put him at in a weaker negotiating position.

          The trade surplus and the Mercs driving up and down Broadstreet are there for all to see.

            It's East vs West only this time it's the Far East and not Russia.

            The UK is particularly dogged by inbred elitists that don't care what the vast majority of the country's population suffer, as long as the plebs are kept subdued enough to not bother them. The EU seems to want to be just as insufferable at the hands of troughing and detachment from the reality seen by the population. That's why the UK public voted to leave, as a desire for change, not for the corrupt UK government to deliver it in name only so no change required by the EU on that side of any negotiation.

            Sometimes I just wish the aliens would stop faffing about and put us humans in our place. The world and all that lives in it would probably be better off. If they have the tech to traverse galaxies they surely aren't the typical conquering evil beings that sci-fi loves to portray. Make it so, Picard, the future needs it.
            Maybe tomorrow, I'll want to settle down. Until tomorrow, I'll just keep moving on.
