"peep out of you, Carroll, Stu, et al."
Again, you lie about this - your metier nowadays.
I made my position clear on Europe at the very beginning - I voted against it when it was put to the vote, I have always mistruded it as an organisation of Capitalist States and I posted heavily when the Greek situation raised its ugly head - made a few enemies among toy fascists when I did.
My attitude is as it was from the beginning - it is a gathering of capitalist states co-operating among themselves to do the best in their own national interests.
Until the world becomes a better place, it is the best option we have at the present time.
Brexit was fought on a racist, 'Little England'ticket - no thought was given for the consequences as long as we could stop forigners entering Britain.
Britain has swung sharply to the right in the short time since the referendum - an increase in racist hate crimes being one of the results of this.
Without introducing too fractious a subject, an acceleration in antisemitism is part of this increase - antisemitism has always been the domain of the right - (though, to be fair, the situation hasn't been helped by the Israeli regime using the Jewish People as human shields to protect itself from having to face war crimes charges)
You accuse Steve of wiggling, yet you refuse to respond to any fact put up in front of you on the outcome of Britain leaving Europe - it doesn't matter to you if British workers can no longer go to Europe for work - more fuel for your hatred and contempt of the less well off.
Brexit has raised problem after problem for the ordinary people of Britain and it has been given as expert opinion that it will be at least a decade before the economy becomes steady again - as little good as that will do for working people .
I doubt if you will even bother "wiggling" on this - you usually ignore what doesn't suit your extremist right-wing agenda.
