Ah yes you dream of a country ruled by Nicoliar and the Friends of Sinn Fein.? 

Yourself and all the other  small-minded will be guaranteed  a job manning the barricaded border. 

And we will need a border no doubt. Need to keep the Brexiteers out.

Decent English people can visit, live and indeed work in Scotland though.

Power projection (or force projection or strength projection) is a term used in military and political science to refer to the capacity of a state to deploy and sustain forces outside its territory. This ability is a crucial element of a state's power in international relations.

The fact that it was Americans flying off the carrier which was being escorted by US ships and submarines no doubt looks impressive to the Chinese?

There was even a Dutch ship escorting the carrier because the Royal Navy did not have enough assets to do it on its own.

The USAF were there on a training exercise , we didnt borrow their aeroplanes .

   Our new Aircraft carrier will not be fully functional for a few years yet

So we showed the Chinese that we still rule the waves by sailing an empty carrier through the south China sea?

Training exercise is just another way of saying borrowed. You think those pilots need training on how to take off and land on a carrier?

much jealousy & hatred of UK ....from tiny angry simple closed minds.... 

even self- loathing from socialist authoritarian traitors.......

no apologies from Britain whose massive positive modern achievements and benign worldwide influence DWARF successes of any other region.

 

So why did all those countries vote to leave the empire?

The UK did well. Impressive medal count.

lol. Championing the EU's vaccine rollout because 6 out of 27 countries finally got it together, claiming Britain will be told to sit in the corner during ASEAN talks, trying to claim covid related issues are due to Brexit. And that's just on this short thread. 

 

Self flagellation is an unpleasant trait of certain Brits who hate their own kind. You're free to go and live in an EU country if you love it so much. Your countrymen want to stay as part of the UK. Bon voyage. Ciao ????. 

No I was simply correcting your claim that the EU's vaccination program was somehow rubbish.

You honestly believe that the UK will be more important to ASEAN than the EU? Seriously?

Driver shortage is related to Brexit. Ask your mate Mac Mickmanus for details.

When Scotland does go independent then I will be returning to an EU country.

The reason for that is that over the years Supermarkets have been using cheap labour for haulage drivers , their terms (wages) got so bad that many drivers gave up and moved into other jobs and the haulage driving was taken over by cheaper E.U workers .

   Now Supermarkets will have to pay a decent /living wage to haulage drivers .

  Paying U.K workers a decent wage instead of using cheap E.U labour was one of the ideals of Brexit

So the price of goods in the shops will go up in order to pay those extra wages to UK natives. Odd you all failed to mention or address that in your Brexit campaign.

Who hates Britain? Just because someone thinks Brexit is stupid does not mean they hate the UK.

Do you mind and stop butting in . 

This is a private discussion between ASEAN and the U.K .

Now that the E.U shackles are off , the U.K is out in the World making new friends , along with showing the Chinese our new aircraft carriers and letting them know who still rules the waves 

We were already talking to ASEAN while we were in the EU.

What we are doing now is trying to repair the damage caused by leaving.

As for the aircraft carrier. You understand we had to borrow the aircraft on it from the USA right?

Ruling the waves? Waives the rules more like.

I fail to see how someone from the other side of the world would have any idea what life was like in the UK, living under the EU jackboot for all these years, how successive UK government got us further and further into greater Europe without asking the UK people what they wanted, and to be honest we are doing ok jack divorced from the EU

I never really had a problem with this guy. He was essentially doing the job he was supposed to be doing.

However he was becoming an inconvenience to other high ranking people which culminated in him arresting  someone's girlfriend as I recall.

His downfall followed rapidly after that.
