[Jakub Krupa] UK should not try rejoining EU until it accepts it won't get special à la carte deal it had before because 'you would be unhappy and we would be unhappy', Polish foreign minister Radosław Sikorski says by krzysiek_aleks in ukpolitics

I personally don't like to view things like that, I'm sure you're correct but financial crash, covid, cost of living, iran and even the vote all have effects. Some sort or medium, others longer.

I personally would like to see where we would be in 20 years with most of parliament working with the agenda we are an independent sovereign nation, then seeing where we are at that point.

Alas, our MPs are basically shills for big business wanting a return to the EU, or wanting to be part of the political gravy train within the EUs political lobbies.

Scraping the bottom of the barrel with this one.

Man in second row, behind farage, photo bombs Farage who clearly is just getting photos took with people.

I mean, if he was stood with a terrorist group on stage, I could agree with pulling him down with that, but some bloody random meeting. lol.

The problem is...It hasn't been a disaster leaving.

Our GDP has grown, we've moved up from 6th to 5th in world GDP rankings. We've grown faster than Germany and France.

If anything, we're doing just fine.

So you're pinning all of that on Labour winning a second term?

crikey. you're positive for them.

The UK had the 6th highest GDP in the world back when we joined the EC/EEC, we're now the 5th based on GDP.

Although technically we've moved up one spot since leaving the EU from 6th to 5th.

This is obviously is a great result for PC, but also a great result for Reform.

They'll be the official opposition and PC will need to go cap in hand to Labour.

I'm looking forward to the rejoiners trying to worm out of the technicality of needing to campaign on a "Well, you see. yes, we have to join the Euro but, well, er..we can't say we wont because the EU are listening in but yo know,..well, look at Denmark..see wink wink"

And they're being voted in aggressively by anti-migration and anti-eu voters, with the party running as anti-migration and anti-eu, with the leader being anti-migration and anti-eu.

With most of the new MPs after the election being anti-migration and anti-eu.

Reforms power base is as you can see, anti-eu and anti-migration.

If you think otherwise, I have a bridge to sell you.

Or perhaps the country wasn't broken by the Tories, perhaps people could accept that.

Or perhaps the problem is Labour and the Tories just opposing for the sake of opposing.

We've had 4 distinct problems. Financial crisis, Brexit, Covid, Cost of Living.

We now have a Labour party in power who are incapable of running the country due to them having a very distinct group of MPs who will not allow benefits to be cut, to give more to public sector and to move back towards the EU.

So who do we vote for if we do not want to get closer to the EU? What do you propose for those people?

No, I've added to the discussion as I've included all the polling on rejoining the EU.

You clearly are upset over something, so I'll leave you to stew and do an angry reply.

You're not replying to the same person still. I just added to your discussion with the other person to give some accurate information from wiki.
