That's why Trunp had to win @beyond_gravity

2018-12-31 16:31:55 UTC  

Maybe macron would but historically countries have been incredibly skeptical of giving their troops to fight in a foreign army to go and fight a war in some random country nobody at home cares about because its a very bad move in terms of domestic politics

2018-12-31 16:32:19 UTC  

Also macron can't just give up the entire French army to the EU like that

2018-12-31 16:32:28 UTC  

You are weirdly naive

2018-12-31 16:32:45 UTC  

To think the EU is such a benevolent

2018-12-31 16:32:47 UTC  

Thing

2018-12-31 16:32:55 UTC  

I don't necessarily

2018-12-31 16:33:08 UTC  

I'm not completely pro EU you do realise

2018-12-31 16:33:15 UTC  

I'm still skeptical of a fair bit of what the EU does

2018-12-31 16:33:29 UTC  

I just think on balance we're better off staying in

2018-12-31 16:34:07 UTC  

I wouldn’t say there are no advantages to staying in

2018-12-31 16:34:15 UTC  

But the metaphorical cost gets higher by the year

2018-12-31 16:34:27 UTC  

We need a Churchill as a leader

2018-12-31 16:34:35 UTC  

Basically

2018-12-31 16:34:42 UTC  

But we have nobody useful

2018-12-31 16:34:47 UTC  

Kind of a big shame

2018-12-31 16:35:04 UTC  

Maybe Raab

2018-12-31 16:35:08 UTC  

But he's too young

2018-12-31 16:35:36 UTC  

Why can't Labour actually put two brain cells together and get a good leader?!

2018-12-31 16:37:28 UTC  

OK so I looked it up and the net Co tributipn othe UK to the eu, while it granted has gone up since 1970 its not exactly "going up every year"

2018-12-31 16:37:56 UTC  

It was basically the same untill 2010

2018-12-31 16:38:13 UTC  

And then I'm guessing the reason it went up after that was the economic crisis

2018-12-31 16:38:18 UTC  

That was when the EU turned

2018-12-31 16:38:20 UTC  

2008

2018-12-31 16:38:27 UTC  

And it looks like it's started to go back down again

2018-12-31 16:38:58 UTC  

Although it did very slightly increase from 2017-2018

2018-12-31 17:47:14 UTC  

@TheBritishGamer ❤🔑 (Meh) @beyond_gravity Was just thinking about it and just remembered another one of my favourite arguments against brexit I never see people bring up

2018-12-31 17:47:40 UTC  

So if the EU is going to shit and desperately needs reforms

2018-12-31 17:48:02 UTC  

In what scenario are we in a better position to stop Europe from getting fucked over by it

2018-12-31 17:48:32 UTC  

They used that argument in the 1930s against the Nazis. Ally with thrm and calm them down

2018-12-31 17:48:34 UTC  

If we have as many MEPs in the EU as countries like Germany and can vote against this kind of shit and keep our large influence within the EU

2018-12-31 17:48:49 UTC  

Or if we leave and leave Germany to dominate the EU

2018-12-31 17:48:53 UTC  

The MEPs do fuck all

2018-12-31 17:49:09 UTC  

True

2018-12-31 17:49:11 UTC  

The higher ups have more control

2018-12-31 17:49:18 UTC  

London MEP is a bit of a cunt

2018-12-31 17:50:00 UTC  

Emailed him about article 13 trying to pressure him to vote against it then only after the vote has happened (and he voted for it) get some retarded automated response saying random stuff I already know

2018-12-31 17:50:29 UTC  

Wait, you tried to pressure him to vote against Article 13?

2018-12-31 17:50:43 UTC  

Yea I fucking hate the idea of article 13

2018-12-31 17:50:48 UTC  

Everyone does

2018-12-31 17:50:54 UTC  

Being a remainer dosent mean I have to love everything the EU does
