Or we can just be friends and neighbours.

You are disregarding my original premises, and responding to nuanced argument with quips and one liners. If you and Boris think it is so simple, all I can say is beware of unintended and unforseen consequences. That's fine on an EU thread on a football fan site, and your views have no unintended consequences for you. In Boris' case, I suspect we are watching a political career unravel before our eyes. Not if he wins, of course. But his strategy is a reckless gamble. As, indeed, is his objecive. Oh well. All the best.

Bugger - just heard that Rafa is staying at Newcastle :nono:

Rafa is taking a big risk, he'd be so much better off looking for the gravy train money of the Prem when someone gets sacked.

But he's going to take one step back knowing the rewards of making Newcastle great again will be three steps forward.

A man with balls who has ultimate confidence in himself :wink:

I wonder who'll take over our £8 billion payment if we leave?

Greece maybe?

Maybe the remaining members will have to become more efficient at everything they do. Southern 'states' as well as 'northern', the 'richer' and the 'poorer'.

Are you in a relationship where the other partner constantly tells you you couldn't survive on your own ... always asking for more money ... always wants more control over your life .... wants to change your identity ?

Does this sound like you? These failed partnerships can reach such a damaging level that sometimes even when you are offered an opportunity to escape you fail to take the chance as your self belief/esteem has been crushed.

Visit #Voteleave to break this abusive cycle.

Indeed no. Neither in my personal life, nor in my 'relationship' with Europe.

You and I seem to be summing up the context of Brexit, in our exchanges, rather well. It is a bit like a discussion about curry. Some love it, some hate it and some are a bit m'eh about it. To some extent we can understand why the other might have a different view.

However the debate overall is a farce. Some people are demanding that nobody should be able to eat curry, while others feel we should have it for every meal, and yet others don't care what anyone thinks, but they really want to tell everyone what they think about curry. And they are insisting it isn't actually curry, it is radioactive communist Martian curry.

But its only curry, it really is. It is not compulsory curry through a staw up the nostrils, nor is it essential life saving curry that must be taken 3 times a day or you die (see, I'm being even handed in my analogy)

For me, Brexit is becoming what looks like a rather hot curry that is likely to ge me the shits. In my opinion. My urge to try some is limited, and I certainly don't want to try it if I then have to eat it three times a day until I die!

All the best.

Southern Europe are skint so they won't be paying it.

The Eastern bloc joined to get on the gravy train not foot the big bills.

So it's going to be Germany and their poodle France. The French will revert to type and say 'non' so the lucky Germans will have to pay....again.

I'm sure that will go down well on top of the millions of migrants Merkal has invited to tea.

I agree. The 'nono' was in reference to his decision's likely effect on BHA.

I like your analogy, and understand your point, albeit, it works both ways; it could mean that if we have the balls to stay with a second tier outfit (the EU) and the balls to show a bit of leadership in the organization, rather than flouncing, then greatness lies ahead :wink::cheers:

I'd love this to be planted into a Cameron/Boris speech

But you know someone of Rafa's pedigree has struck a deal that he, and only he will be making his own decisions :wink:

and ps - yes, as I said some weeks ago, I understand the sense of exhiliration the idea of Brexit can bring to a person. When I was 14, 44 years ago, there was often stuff about racism and immigration on the news. As a simple 14 year old, I saw the simple solution: compulsory repatriation. Likewise, the endless crime waves reported on the telly. My simple solution: execute all criminals; cheap and final. When I grew up and became a scientist I realised that simple solutions to complex problems were always false. The relationship between the brain and heart is complicated (and I mean this both literally and metaphorically). Attempts to mitigate against heart disease have taken decades to elaborate and success is hard to predict. One could argue that Brexit is a solution to today's problems like cutting the heart out would be a solution to heart disease. I wouldn't be certain about that, however.

There's something that would also be amusing to plant into a Boris/Cameron speach - and considerably more unlikely to pass without comment :lolol: All the best.
