    Promising a EU referendum created the biggest problem of all. It's never going to happen and the electorate are probably dumb enough to fall for it. Whilst this false promise lingers our relationship with our neighbours falters. It's a real shame.
    Try stopping reading Das Bild. Form some opinions of your own. Stop trying to suck up to the Germans.

    Peter Oborne does not agree with you:

    This Coalition can be compared with our greatest governments - Telegraph

    The Coalition has thrown itself into a programme of public-service reform that takes the breath away in its audacity and vision, and surpasses anything Mrs Thatcher achieved.
    Michael Gove is in the process of restoring life chances to millions of children who were doomed to failure thanks to Labour’s culture of mediocrity. The Education Secretary is hated by the National Union of Teachers as a result. Yet I believe that one day his name will be spoken alongside that of the magnificent William Forster, who achieved immortality by founding universal education in Britain under the leadership of Gladstone in the 1870s.
    Meanwhile, Iain Duncan Smith, driven by unfashionable Christian principles, has reshaped the welfare state so that the unemployed can escape poverty, return to work and win back self-respect.
    These welfare and education reforms were unveiled in the first months of this Government and are now well-advanced. Against all expectations, the Coalition has shown an extraordinary capacity to renew itself through a rolling programme of revolutionary reform.
    And it continues. At the heart of yesterday’s Queen’s Speech were two pensions Bills. Steve Webb, the Lib Dem minister who will pilot them through Parliament, is determined to restore the culture of thrift that was deliberately wrecked by Gordon Brown 10 years ago. Just as Mr Duncan Smith’s welfare reforms are intended to make work pay, so Mr Webb means to make saving pay. He has been one of the most brilliant success stories of this Government – proof that Lib Dems have been a central ingredient in Britain’s greatest reforming government in decades.
    The numbers support this verdict. In the past four years, half a million public-sector jobs have gone, yet one and a half million jobs have been created, in defiance of Labour’s hopeless prediction that financial cuts would cause unemployment to surge. Crime is down sharply, even though the Home Office budget has been cut. This is to the credit of Theresa May, the first Home Secretary who dared to challenge the power of the Police Federation.

    apparently it becoming an EU superstate against the wishes of the electorate.

    the UK has said its not working right for us can we discuss possible changes? The EU has said Non & Nein.

    Then people try and suggest we are being unreasonable.

    I still can't work out if he's trolling or stupid. That's normally the mark of a good troll, but in this case I think it's the other
