lok at the moneky see teh monkey hear the monkey.

the costs of a nuclear deterrent could be shared by all members.

Which it hasn;t done and should which proves just how
useful Eurpore actiualy is when doing something important.

Like no more wars between countrys in western europe.

There weren;t any wars in western Europe, or why did they leave it 30+ years before the UK joined the EU, you'd have thopught that would have been sorted within a very short time perdiod.

it was the Treaty of Rome, creating the European Economic Community (EEC), or ' common market ' in 1957.



But those who want out probably consider
many of those countries enemies anyway. ;-)

So why don't we have a nuclear detternt for
europe paid for buy the EU rather than the UK.

Because some weren't too keen in the idea of Germany
having nukes, or Italy either for that matter.

Can't imagine why for the life of me.

No idea either as we have the treaty of rome and when was trident built ?
