Hey Mooman,

Nothing at all to be ashamed about in working in Europe - but working in the political sphere in Europe for more than 14 years. Anything to do with that Franco-German Junketing Corps known as the EU? The most corrupt, inefficient, non-transparent organisation in existence.

Very impressive list of what you all have there in Belgium, Moo. It might of course be rather different if the Belgians had to foot the bill on their own, and that is a situation that is only going to get worse, as both the French and the Germans now fully realise (because neither can they). It has always amused me with regard to the EU when the pro-Europe lobby intimate that the UK could be expelled from the EU. They couldn't of course, no body of people go rushing into a good resturaunt for a five-course meal then eject one of those who has to pay the bill.

No arguements put forward by you at all apart from the impression all too prevalent on this forum of Left-wing Dogma Good - Right-wing Dogma Bad and you have the cheek to pull me up for 'pathetic insults'.

I do not think I have ever hear anything so pathetic and patronising as your, "I have probably forgotten more politics (especially European and international politics) than you will ever know."

You state correctly that I do not know you personally but then the converse is also true - like you, I go on what you submit to the various threads on this forum - so your point is?

By the bye, I do believe that I would rather live where I do than in Belgium.
