If only there was a trading partner that we could deal with that would be more reliable, closer and less fucking crazy. We could form some sort of union with them, maybe sign a free trade agreement, have freedom of movement for everyone within it, even have a place in some sort of joint parliament with all the other contributors....
I know, I'm just talking crazy, nothing like that exists.
There is one but they had too many rules about the shape of bananas for us
That was pushed for by us
Steady on
Glad to hear it. The last thing I want is stronger ties to that bin fire of a country run by nutters.
Same here but this comment could be directed at either nations at this point.
I disagree. I don't see the UK leadership as insane, just terrible. They're not actively trying to tear the place down. Instead they're adding lots of stupid bullshit.
I agree with your distinction but my original comment still applies.
Who woulf have guessed fascist lie
