Well I certainly don't find the AfD amusing and I'm sure you don't either! It was good to fire some anti Muslim grape shot across the bows but I hope the Germans will go for stability now.

It was good to fire some anti Muslim grape shot across the bows but I hope the Germans will go for stability now. I agree. The AFD is not as much to the right as the mass media claim. I am absolutely in favor of a controlled immigration. The Greens are a bit fool in that question, so that whole has burst. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually, cricket is not just a game; it's a philosophy ( until the Colonials introduced limited overs and day light) I do think losing a seat on the highest court in the world is a severe blow. We should not let these things go so easily. Depressing and reflects our reduced stature. ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Muttimerkel has either lost the plot or has limited her chances of survival for some other reason. Ironically, a bit like TM really. Merkel does not want the risk of another election but she's in a corner now, which May wasn't in. May lost the majority with that idiotic manifesto far more so than anything to do with Brexit. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Orac Posted November 21, 2017 Share Posted November 21, 2017 Well I certainly don't find the AfD amusing and I'm sure you don't either! It was good to fire some anti Muslim grape shot across the bows but I hope the Germans will go for stability now.Didn’t AfD’s leader and deputy leader jump ship after the last election which would put them in a difficult position now if it is to be rerun. All the other parties have a similar position on Brexit so not much of a benefit to the U.K. and more likely an issue due to a delay in having anyone from the EUs biggest economy to make decisions giving more influence to the French at a critical time.Sent from my iPad using Thailand Forum - Thaivisa mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We voted out of the EU over a year ago and we still don't know all the arguments. Better still why don't we have a referendum every Thursday. It would please the Remainers.

Without it I would go bankrupt, employees would not be able to pay rent/mortgages or put food on the table for children. Better to prat on about ethereal things and let the kids go hungry eh . You have been very critical of the financial disadvantages of leaving the EU and then take breath and ask if its all about money. You continue to stand on 2 platforms and stand on the one suitable for the moment. What are you advocating?
