    As of posting that, you don't think the ultimate goal of the EU is USofE?

    Crikey I wish you the best of luck in life, you clearly need it.

    No. A few people's ideas are not fact, despite what Boris and Trump think

    If you could point to the section that details a "USofE", I'd be grateful

    Another fact is we're leaving, and the EU gods can sulk over it for the next few months.

    I know you lot don't have brains, and only read one word at a time, but try to understand words in context...

    You see the fuk'n huge brand: France Diplomaticie??? That's where it's from, that's the link... If your brain is unable to understand that as a link then you have a basic comprehension problem.

    My exact wording was: facts written by the French authorities on this subject, with the title: President Macron's Initiative for Europe: A sovereign, united, democratic Europe.

    If your brain is unable to understand that as the fact that France has discussed and written their proposals/ideas/ideals of a sovereign and united one-Europe then you have a basic comprehension problem.

    Regarding Lom's suggestion of "a photo", I didn't post any photo, but rather a screen shot. Yet, in this context, I understand what you mean so I won't call you a "so retarded" because I don't have either: 1) the intention to troll; 2) a basic problem with comprehension.

    Words have meaning in context, the context is clear, my meaning is clear, and I gave links to the source (yes, you have to actually read the name to understand that...) and facts of what the French said.



    Try to understand: you lost. Brexit means Brexit.

    Your entire effort to keep this thread going is nothing more than trolling. You have been wrong at every turn. You are just ignorant trolls. BTW, the fact that a couple of you are the most hated and disrespected people of this board is no coincidence...

    It speaks of someone who just isn't comfortable with embracing a broad spectrum of views.

    Do you ever think of 'the ultimate goals of the houses of parliament'?

    Or do you see that the views of, say, Corbyn and Johnson are too disparate to make that concept sensible in all but a few areas like 'avoiding anarchy'?

    So how much sillier is it to talk as you do regarding a spectrum of views that is even broader, like within the EU?

    Wrong again, these are not just Macron's dreams but those of Merkel, and while these two temporary influences will soon be gone the goal of the EU remains full union.

    The EEC was a bait and switch scam which fooled an entire continent; Gregor MacGregor had nothing on these people.

    You flatter yourself . . . do you fund anyone trying to stop you from leaving? I've never seen a bunch of people so intent on leaving and making up stories on how people are stopping them, or trying to.

    Erm, its not just the Frenchies idea, its shared by a number of senior EU politicians. It is however funny that remainers suddenly find themselves debating the terms Idea and Fact when they insisted their "Facts" on leave would see the sky fall in. Hilarious.

    ineed, Macron wet dreams are not going to happen for now, at least not until Germany Nazi-in-Chief, Merkel, is still active

    the EU Army is a necessary logic, NATO is something from the past, but most EU27 are too lazy and cheap to finance one

    the UK could have been useful in building the new EU Army, but again their addiction to their former colony stop them from being or participating into a new superpower

    remember how the US treated you after WW2, Germany and France were getting a better deal, and they lost

    It's pointless, Gentlemen.

    This group of posters have been wrong at every turn. Earlier in the threads life they were speaking the same way about a European army, they seem to have given up on that one. Earlier in the thread they were talking about the majority of British people now wanting to remain, they seem to have given up on that one. Earlier in the thread the were talking about no backstop changes, no EU agreement changes, the changes were made, so they seem to have given up on those. Earlier in the thread they made claims about the state of the pound and the British economy (by now), they've been proven wrong on that one sand stopped talking about it.

    They are internet trolls. They have been wrong at every turn. It's pointless having a discussion with these types of posters.

    This is a pointless debate, the USoE was a clear objective of the EC since the 1970s, not sure why the usual idiots forgot about it, but British MPs certainly didn't, hence why many of them have been so anti-Euro since day 1

    You can't claim you didn't know about the USoE because you clearly did when you signed up for the EU project

    now re-stating and faking the real reasons for leaving is not the best way to prepare the future,

    focus on what you want to be, not what the EU is or will be

    hardly, we correctly predicted that hard Brexit wasn't going to happen, when again a few months ago, you were betting your life that Boris will not EXTEND and go hard Brexit on Oct 31, which clearly didn't happen

    and since Maybot and Boris denied giving a voice to the people through a REF2 to consolidate or confirm Brexit, it's clear they had knowledge that a REF2 wouldn't go their way this time

    52% is a very small majority for something so complex and strategic as Brexit

    ^ in September/October, I was very unsure of how Brexit would pan out or not. The parliamentary remoaners were well in the game at that time until, the Lib Dem leader started to believe her own propaganda and opted for an election; and the British people decided (again...).

    No hard Brexit? Nobody knows. It's likely that the EU will just do the same as they always do, and did last time, they will play hardball then back down at the 11th hour, so they'll likely be a Canada style deal where Britain does not align with EU regulations/laws. But, at this point, nobody knows. There could still be a hard Brexit if the EU get ahead of themselves... Britain will do better by a socalled hard Brexit than the EU...

    Don't say that, Papillion - they won't like you saying something that doesn't fit their limited knowledge. You have to help them feel comfortable: there will be no EU army, and there will be no sovereign EU superstate. Repeat that, they will feel comfortable with this incorrect information.

    for now, only Brexitters seem to be uncomfortable with the idea of USoE and the EU Army

    but this is not reality yet, so claiming like Brexiteers do, that there is an emergency to leave, even with a Hard Brexit, because this is going to happen tomorrow

    We are still 20 years away from that, probably slowed down with the integration of the Eastern bloc

    20 years, that's what it will take to resolve Brexit entirely, so perfect timing

    ^ but the EU won't be around in 20 years...

    The ESoE and EU army = war. War within Europe, the superstate against the people, and International war as the EU start attempting to empire build and cross the US, China and Russia.

    EU must develop 'appetite for power', Borrell says

    MUNICH (Reuters) - European Union governments need to be willing to intervene in international crises or risk prolonging paralysis in their foreign policy, the EU’s top diplomat said on Sunday.

    The EU is the world’s largest trading bloc but it often fails to speak with one voice on foreign policy because its policy-making requires consensus among members. EU governments are divided on issues from Libya to Venezuela.

    “Europe has to develop an appetite for power,” the EU’s foreign policy chief Josep Borrell told the Munich Security Conference, stressing that did not only mean military power.

    “We should be able to act ... not everyday making comments, expressing concern,” he told leaders, lawmakers and diplomats.

    With its economic power, the bloc has been able to boast of a “soft power”, but its influence in the world has waned, partly because U.S. President Donald Trump’s “America First”‘ policies have undermined European priorities.

    Trump’s decision to pull out of the 2015 Iran nuclear deal, as well as the Paris climate accord, his recognition of Jerusalem as Israel’s capital before a final peace settlement and his criticism of NATO are at odds with European positions.

    With new leadership in Brussels, the EU has launched into a flurry of diplomacy since January, particularly on the Middle East.

    But the bloc was still divided on how to react to Trump’s peace proposal for the Palestinians and Israel. Efforts to revive a maritime mission off Libya to uphold a U.N. arms embargo have run into difficulties, diplomats say.

    “When there is no unanimity (in the EU), the remaining majority have to act,” Borrell said.

    The EU will still be around, in whatever guise the bankers and Freemasons controlling it (ever wonder what organizations like the Bilderberg Group, Trilateral Commission, Council on Foreign Relations, Royal Institute of International Affairs, etc etc, actually do.? And why the media never report their secretive meetings and decisions.?) are hiding behind. UN; World Bank, WHO, IMF, etc.
    The ultimate goal of the Globalists / Illuminated Ones has always been a centralized bank, currency, world army and government. The aim is to wipe out free trade and any competition, and control the narrative because they own all the mainstream media.

    Not quite true, is it. Replacing Polish plumbers with ones from India. Nurses from across Europe with ones from The Gambia, physicians from Europe with ones from Bangladesh, lecturers and teachers from Europe with ones from Swaziland and Tonga etc etc etc etc

    That is diversity, cyrille

    will the UK get fucked over this? of course it will, but that's besides the point and too late to worry now

    let's see if Boris will do another 180 in December by going for another extension or giving up on everything and yield to all EU demands, like he did already

    and Betty will see this as another British victory, the proud little nationalist
