I told you. Brexit takes some of my rights away. Also, I am British and I don’t want us to lose anything based on downright leave lies. The UK has been conned.
Yes...well I believe that if you desert Britain for something better elsewhere...you give up the rights you left behind & accept those that apply to where you perceived the grass was greener

No it isn’t. It is NF admirer Nigel Farage and dishonest journalists. E.g. BoJo sacked twice as a journalist for lying.

Juncker works for the EI and carries out the mandate given to him. Generally very well.
If you say so. Most people know it isn't true. You just make bullshit up to deflect from Juncker.

WTF?

The leave campaign has shown what scum there is. Most people in Europe are not interested in Brexit and don’t want to leave the EU.

I am not a tax dodger nor scum. I also haven’t been to Trump Tower or Moscow.

I have dual nationality, but pay tax in Germany..., not Belize or Malta.
You are as self interested as the Brexiteers you condemn imo...you raised the term 'scum' in relation to them - yet you are their equal but opposite

Yet you choose to ignore the remain lies. Just a one sided debate to you. In fact not a debate. Just a one sided argument with no decent points from you being put forward

What was the decision on how we leave? Please let May know ASAP because she hasn’t got a clue what you voted for.
Well she only has to ask me & I will tell her the same I have told you.

Thing is - what I voted for as an individual matters not because the majority thought differently. Her job is to get on & deliver what the majority want

I am not leading people up the garden path and I pay my taxes. I don’t have a hedge fund or diamond mine. I am not a racist, not an extremist.

I don’t want to lose basic freedoms. You say that puts me in the same bracket as a Belize based multi millionaire tax dodger and habitual liar?

I would have thought that most sensible people don’t want to be worse off after Brexit. Apparently you are ok with losing rights and the country possibly taking a hit so that some people can carry out their own agenda. Weird...,

I didn’t leave any rights behind. My rights are guaranteed throughout the EU. The EU is not allowed to take away rights that people already have.

If the UK leaves the EU, then my rights are no longer guaranteed. Hence me getting German citizenship.

The change was made by people voting leave. Not by me.

That HAS to be the quote of the thread

Yes. Astute’s deflecting crap doesn’t alter anything. His favourite deflection tactic is to mention Juncker and Grendel“s is Tusk. Doesn’t matter what I say, I always get the same crap ...“what about Juncker?“ or „look at what Tusk did there“. Hilarious indeed.

Why do you keep referring to people you voted Leave' scum ?

I don’t. The people I refer to as scum are not the vast majority of people who voted leave, but the dodgy millionaires, far right fans, hedge fund owners whose funds invest in countries like Russia rather than the UK and tax dodgers more interested in their tax havens being left in tact than the welfare of the people they preached their Brexit dogma to.

That is a small, but very significant, section of leave voters.

So only Britain has crooks now? Or only the crooks in Britain interest you? What??? Please explain...coz this is goi g the same way as your Pokish worker theme

Sent from my SM-G935F using Tapatalk

What are you on about? I was talking about Brexit crooks. People try and talk about totally different „crooks“ as a distraction. I said we were talking about specific British crooks who led people in Britain up the garden path.

That is not an assertion that the only crooks in the world are British crooks. It is a reminder to cut out the whataboutery when talking about specific people e.g. the Belize based, Panama Papers Lord who has backed Brexit for his own purposes. Astute says he only dodged a bit of tax which is ok by him. He is, however, a serial tax dodger and only gave up his seat in the Lords because he would have to pay tax in Britain. Do you think that Lord Ashcroft is a good example of a Brexit voter? Would you criticise him, or rather talk about people who may be crooks, but have no direct dealings in Britain?

It is pointless asking about any workers outside of possibly Germany (but you might not care about them either!)

Sent from my SM-G935F using Tapatalk

We are talking about Britain: EU in or out. Not Poland. At least not directly. The point I was making about British based liars and crooks has nothing to do with Polish workers. Grendel always brings his pet Tusk into the conversation when I criticise dodgy goings on in the leave camp.why? Why doesn’t he admit that there were dodgy goings on?

His principles & actions have an awful lot to do with the reasons the UK voted to leave

Sent from my SM-G935F using Tapatalk

His action in confirming the 4 principles which we agreed to was the only thing he could do.

We had scope to remove EU migrants after 3 months if they didn’t have a job. So the myth that people were coming just to get eternal benefits was put out by our press and the rules were not enacted by our government. But, blame Juncker.

There was a simple choice. Stay or go. The majority decision won the day. It didn't go the way you or I voted. C'est la vie

So the next xhpice is ypu side & stick with Britain or piss off elsewhere. But of cpurse you had already done that...wanted the benefits the UK provides without benefitting the UK it seems (other than leaving it!)

Sent from my SM-G935F using Tapatalk

What benefits do I get from the UK? Does sticking with Britain mean giving up the democratic right to oppose something which you don’t agree with? Sticking with Britain means calling out the people who are taking us out of the EU. That is what I am doing.

So why not show neutrality? You simply will not admit that because it is a much larger scale than the UK alone, there are many more liars, tax dogers & self interested scum (like Mr Martcov Dual-Nationality) favpuring the EU

Sent from my SM-G935F using Tapatalk

I am not neutral. I am sure that a portion of the leave voters have been led up the garden path by the likes of Arron Banks, Farage and co..

I don’t for one moment think that Brexit is anything other than a stupid decision.

How can anyone be neutral if you are having a discussion about „EU in or out“? You would need to start a new thread „EU not bothered either way“ to get people saying they are neutral.

Lord Archer, Tony Blair & your ideal foil Nigel Farage were also elected. That all went went well didn't it?

Sent from my SM-G935F using Tapatalk

You don’t like democracy do you? Yes, sometimes bad people get elected. What do you suggest? Monarchy? Dictatorship? Anarchy? Religious head of government?

With democracy you can at least vote people out if things are not going well. Laws can be changed and the system can evolve.

I am interested in your alternative. Irreversibel referenda on every subject under the sun?

You seem to have some pretty entrenched extreme views in favour of the EU.

Nobody has lost anything, except you - the plot!!!...& again - you seem to have a pretty extreme view of what our Goernment is going to do regarding it's citizens post-Brexit. What I said was equal but opposite to them...& I maintain that

Again...nobody has lost anything except you - the plot!!! As for worse off...the average man in the street such as most of us on here will not notice any major changes to our lives. Maybe travelling abroad within the EU will be a bit different because it will become akin to travelling to Turkey when going through the border.

So the EU is going to take away your rights Mart. Not the UK!!! The change to your citizenship is being requested by 1 peron - YOU. Why? Because you want your bread buttered both sides. You could have simply waited to see how things pan out as there seems to be this retaining an EU passport option...but you want to be German instead. Which is fine...the rest of us seem happy & proud to be British

Just because people thought different to you - you have swallowed media crap about who voted for what & why. Through your EU tinted glsses, you outwardly refuse to accept that very very similarly disposed individuals exist throughout the German, French etc & EU corridors of power.

Extreme? I just said that I am in favour of the EU.

People will lose the right to live and work anywhere in the EU and the rights that they have in the EU will no longer be guaranteed.

I don’t have an extreme view of what our government is going to do, because neither I nor the government know what they are going to do. At this moment in time we don’t have an agreement for when we leave. If it stays like that we are in big trouble. Nothing to do with my opinion. Just a fact.

Probably true that most won’t notice a big difference, but it is unlikely that most will be better off or that their lives will be in any way better. More likely GDP will slow or schrink at least in the short term.

Brexit is unlikely to have been worth the trouble and the government will be busy limiting any potential damage.

I have taken German citizenship because nothing has been decided yet and I am not waiting until we have left the EU to find out what happens. I have a right to German citizenship as an EU citizen. Next year I lose that right, so I had to take it while I still can.

The EU is not taking any rights from me. I will cease to be an EU citizen when the UK leaves. I then lose EU rights. The EU is not leaving the UK. The UK is taking my EU rights off me by leaving the EU.

You are nuts. You bet that I use the NHS so that is now fact? I have private health insurance and I am healthy anyway. I haven’t been to a doctor in the UK ( apart from A and E for my daughter who is also insured ) for more than 30 years. Or maybe 40.. I can’t remember it’s so long ago.

Slating a potential calamity for Britain and the dodgy people involved at the top is sticking with Britain. A patriotic duty if you like.

Yes it will and hopefully we ( not me as I am not allowed to vote ) will get a chance to either agree or not agree with what the government finally comes up with as an agreement. If they cannot agree with the EU, then we should be asked if we still want to go ahead with Brexit, or bin it as a bad idea.

By then we will know what Brexit actually is.
