No, but I have a full subscription so if you link it I can read it. Tom Send a noteboard - 06/02/2013 01:36:51 AM
I don't know why the UK would want to stay in Europe if it means subjecting all finance to the German Central Bank, though. The French, Italians, Spaniards and Greeks, who can't seem to manage their own money, would benefit, but I don't see the benefit for the UK. Between the pound, not having a tax on financial transactions and having a superior legal system, the UK is far better off having a bit of distance between itself and the so-called entity of "Europe" (which is a myth). "Europe" is fraying, and I think that 2013 is just going to bring massive crises.
Political correctness is the pettiest form of casuistry.

ἡ δὲ κἀκ τριῶν τρυπημάτων ἐργαζομένη ἐνεκάλει τῇ φύσει, δυσφορουμένη, ὅτι δὴ μὴ καὶ τοὺς τιτθοὺς αὐτῇ εὐρύτερον ἢ νῦν εἰσι τρυπώη, ὅπως καὶ ἄλλην ἐνταῦθα μίξιν ἐπιτεχνᾶσθαι δυνατὴ εἴη. – Procopius

I guess it's a part of his attempts to modernize the Tories and appeal to young voters. Legolas - 07/02/2013 08:17:54 AM 475 Views
