It feels like the first time I've heard someone say that.

The guy just said compared the EU's importance with that of the US federal government. He also claims that any radicalisation of Syrian refugees that happens will be the fault of Britain for not making them feel welcome enough.

When people start shouting that others are traitors because they disagree with their ideological stance, that's the time to get worried.

He priorities the wants and wishes of Syrians over the needs of the British public. What do you call that if not treachery? Silliness perhaps?

No, he doesnt. In no post made by Dave does he once put the needs of any one group before any other. He's pretty clear about that.

To be honest, right wing ideology and unchecked, exclusionary nationalism make me sick to my stomach, but oh great Jesus, the outrage if I were to harp on about that in this thread the way you've been firing off platitudes like some kind of sniper.

I'm going to respectfully disagree with both of those points.

I saw him listing a few benefits of EU membership that will go away after Brexit (such as cooperation of intelligence agencies). Unrelated, but also, his point about the necessary secured border between the ROI and NI as directly contravening the Belfast Agreement is a very valid point - this will be the UK government directly breaking a covenant it made with its people if the Common Travel Area is abolished. Poor form, indeed.

And he did not claim radicalization of Syrian refugees will be a direct result of either not being made welcome, or UK policy. Radicalization of any would-be terrorist is made easy by certain actions.

No, he doesnt. In no post made by Dave does he once put the needs of any one group before any other. He's pretty clear about that.

So you don't agree that a country should always consider the needs and safety of itself and its own citizens first?

Schengen is pretty much a reflection of the Eu as a whole, on its last knees.

Quite,

Even Germany's traditional allies within the Eu have suffered enough nonsense and are putting self preservation top of their list of priorities.

:cool:

Nice obscure choice of reference there. You might as well have cited your own blog.

My blog doesn't discuss politics. That subject gets way too many people pissed off.

Its a deal. If they become a world class surgeon then it's on you as is if they become radicalised and hurt someone since your lot were the ones rallying to let them into the country against the national interest.

I'm supporting people who have had their lives destroyed in the name of ideology, and have left to avoid dying. If I lost everything in my life in whichever country I called home, I'd hope that others would be compassionate towards me too. I'd leave that country if it was a war zone too!

I'm sorry but your treacherous kind make me sick to the stomach.

If you hate my kind that much, put me on ignore. Or go play on another thread.

I won't be putting you on ignore because the misrepresentations of people's opinions that you constantly make have to be challenged. Ignoring you just helps validate your vile opinions.

Really! Are you really reading that from my posts?

Actually, I won't be content until Britain is free of those selfish people who have no compassion for those who need our help.

I've not said that, and I'd like to see where you think I did so. You're yet again reading stuff into my posts that aren't there. Stop it.

:thumbup:

Does the Republican gentleman know that the UK isn't allowed to negotiate trade deals with anyone until the date we actually Brexit?

Not when the new administration takes office.

The French State of Emergency which began after the Nov 2015 atrocities has recently been extended to 15th July 2017.

The decision was approved by a massive majority.

Yet a further sign of the desperate state of affairs within the EU.

Do you seriously think anyone cares a toss about such petty Eu regulations anymore ? :rofl:

Filling the vacuum.

Oh no, hang on a mo'.....hold it....nope, Dick's still here.

On second thoughts, as you were, it is a vacuum :lol:

Actually, to be fair, he hasn't come out of nowhere. He had a whirlwind romance with this site last year, too, for a couple of weeks. Boss or other half on holiday, I reckon ;)
