    Damn, it's so sad for Europe and the UK.. well, Britain will be the guinea pig of EU exit. I just hope the catastrophic consequences for UK will prevent another major country exit and that EU will be saved. I'd hate to see the end of the European Union just because of some suicidal British.

    Or you could explain what you mean.

    England never conquered Scotland, we united, the Scots did their full part in the British Empire.

    it's actually quite foolish to think you know better than someone for themselves, or think yourself so much better because you regard yourself as cleverer.
    Considering that all major pro-Brexit points are regurgitated misinformed manipulation, yes, the supporters sure know better for themselves.

    First, I don't even have a say, I'm American. But Second, no people are saying you're uneducated if you vote to leave.

    Again, I doubt they will accept shared sovereignty, but a solution will be needed in the next 2 years. Gibraltar is completely dependent on Spain economically.

    You may not care what happens to it, but the people living there do, and you can be sure they will do something about it if their livelihood is affected.

    I'm pretty certain my post was quite clear on what I said. If you diagree, that's fine. I actually don't understand what you're saying, it doesn't make sense. I think some crucial punctuation is missing.

    Cheer up Boris. Fuck me, you'd think they're speaking from a funeral.

    (inb4 "it's the UK's funeral" or similar joke)

    (inb4 "well, you said it")

    Are you genuinely stupid or did you never end up at school???

    Germany can't pull all the strings when France, UK can veto anything they want.

    Get that through your thick head, if Germany does pull all the strings it's because the UK either agreed or didn't care to veto.

    It's that simple.

    It's posts like these that I love. I mean, partly because they're amusingly missing reality by a large margin, but they also... and this is the fun bit for me personally, they totally justify any kind of resentment I foster for uneducated people. I absolutely don't give a fuck if people tell me it's wrong to judge people on their education when I read shit like this. And I can almost feel the contempt rising in my head... :P

    No. Everybody silenced poor UK. It's not like the country didn't even try to have any influence in EU politics. Ze evil Germans control the EU.
