About 10,000 years?

There are no EU countries, only regions, anyway - or at least there wont
be for much longer.


I'm not saying the EU is in any way perfect, but I do feel that we stand a
better chance of affecting things for the better if we stay in.

Yerah if we all man te pumps teh deckhairs on te titamnic will be there

Me?

I'm for the lifeboats.

The EU is dead. It just hasn't quite accepted it.

Not to say some form of EU wide political talking shop might not be
relevant - we've had NATO for years of course - but this EU is abiout as
relevant today as the Socialist workers party.


To me the
Currency union experiment has failed, and to some extent so have other
unification initiatives, but at some level the system can and does work so
fight the beaurocracy and corruption certainly, but don't throw the baby
out with the bathwater.

Unfortunately the baby and the bathwater are indissoluble.
