    push comes to shove id rather we KNEW who were obliged to help than hand carte blanche over to the EU and its ever expansionist nature (politicians STILL wont tell us what the ultimate membership will be) and id perfer we could exercise the clout we have as one of the few european countries that never engaged in empire building to be an impartial go between for the EU and whatever country it gets into conflict with (probably russia) than be compromised by this treaty.
    You also know that the Germans planned to invade us anyway regardless of our neutrality. And neutrality didn't save Belgium or Denmark or Norway either did it!? You really ought to brush up on the facts of the case you are trying to argue

    That might be referendums you're thinking of...

    Mine arrived. The image of the woman asking the question of the men was eloquent in a way the Department may not have consciously intended.

    so let me get this straight.

    youve NO problem with world war 3 ?

    IF ireland was invaded we'd do what we ALWAYS do. do a runner, let em bed in, and murder the ********************ers in their sleep.

    we didnt need a military block to get rid of the brits and we DONT need one now to secure our sovereignty.

    ???????

    I have no idea what to make of that post. Are you serious? Where did the WW3 comment come from?

    FYI the main reason we managed to beat the British was because they had just fought the Great War and were facing similar situations in a number of colonies. They were stretched thin and couldn't keep fighting. We were on the brink of losing too in case you'd forgotten. Had it not been for WW1 the English would most likely have mopped the floor with us.

    The "woman" thinks she's still in primary school. The guy in the middle looks like he hasn't a clue and is happy with that, looks gormless. The guy with the glasses looks sinister or cynical, like he's in on a big joke.
