    The EU: In, out, shake it all about....

    No fantasy, just recorded fact. Who are those who hold all the power in the EU? The 28 elected heads of government? Or the 700+ MEPs elected by the EU electorate? Or the EU commission of “cabinet” members ( commissioners )? Have you a link to what Merkel says?

    No, I am not. EBA “promotes cooperation between national authorities”. Which means to supervise banks who trade in different EU countries. The Bundesbank May not have the authority to regulate it’s banks’ activities in other countries. From it’s website: What it does Provides input into the...

    The EU: In, out, shake it all about....

    It obviously doesn’t do just the job by National central banks do. It oversees what they are doing. It was centred in the UK because of the financial centre of London. Exactly because of expertise. These are real jobs. The reason there is an oversight is prevent another crash, or at least see...

    The EU: In, out, shake it all about....

    No. You made that up. No country wants to leave the EU ( apart from the UK ). No country wants to power back. Where are you getting your facts from?

    Google it. The problem with tax dodges is that the UK has 9 Crown Dependencies. The problem with tax levels is that: Ireland, Luxemburg, Holland always Block the EU’s attempts at tax reform. Not Juncker as you claim.

    I have posted the last ombudsman’s report with her recommendations. They do not ignore all regulations all day everywhere in the EU. That is another nonsensical Astute claim. They were not even found to have ignored any law in the Selmayer case. They knew the law and that there were 2 ways of...

    The EU: In, out, shake it all about....

    Oversight of 28 countries’ banks is a bigger deal than the BoE in Britain. More influence. You’re not bothered about other people’s UK jobs. Nice. You won’t be voting on any issues if you vote for Farage as he doesn’t have a manifesto. You will just vote for what you believe the leader stands for.

    We’ve been through this BS a thousand times. That is a bad joke. You just don’t want to understand. You prefer to quote Farage and other dubious sources without ever checking the facts.

    The EU: In, out, shake it all about....

    No it doesn’t. I meant that the bank authority regulates all banks in the EU and therefore ultimately is responsible for the safety of all deposits in the EU. There will be plenty of high paid jobs and conferences etc. that move from London to Paris. This will benefit the economy of Paris and...

    Yeah, who wants well paid jobs and influence over EU money in their country? Poor France. All that horrible money and influence.

    The EU: In, out, shake it all about....

    You are the one making claims. You show the evidence to back your claims up. I didn’t say you brought up Selmayr. I used Selmayr as an example of your Obsession. You make out that 3 people making an appointment without offering the job publicly is wrong. Then when May ( 1 person ) makes the...

    He is the only one leading a party with the aim of leaving the EU, so he would be out of place anyway. The others would be happy with a more racist EU.

    The EU: In, out, shake it all about....

    No, I didn’t. I jumped in to criticise your view that people are turning against the EU because of the people running it. Your favourite example happens to be Selmayr. You refuse to acknowledge that by your own standards, May being allowed to appoint the head of the UK civil service without any...

    Yeah, you’d have to be pretty thick to have Farage as your leader.

    They aren’t being ignored.

    The EU: In, out, shake it all about....

    No one said that. But you would be stupid to ignore good points just because you don’t like the person making them. E.g. I have constantly said that Farage was right about the UK FPTP no longer working.
