Murray highlights numerous examples of politicians, professors, and writers who had warned about it had either been ignored, defamed, dismissed, prosecuted or killed. Rarely, if ever, even after the facts changed, did the actual victims receive much sympathy. Immigration itself has many repercussions for the host country, from decreasing wages in the lower labour market, housing shortages and the extra burden on the education system. All of these may be serious questions that need proper management but not impossible. An often-skipped burden is also that of integration. As a liberal society who are we to tell immigrants to adapt to our lifestyle. Traditionalist populist parties often argue for more integration since when in Rome, do as the Roman’s do. But what if those recently arrived do not adjust to the same values we live by? It is exactly this question the social democratic parties are too afraid to try to answer, and instead, strange analogies are made to compare the current immigrant crisis to that during the second world war. Isn’t it the strangest thing that it is the liberal societies that go quiet on bigotry if it comes from a community of immigrants". 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The UK and EU agree terms for Brexit transition period http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-politics-43456502 its a fucking sellout to a bunch of freeloading frogs. this is the end of the EUSSR; "According to a report in the online US news site Politico, EU Commission Vice President, Valdis Dombrovskis, revealed plans to propose creation of so-called “European Safe Bonds“ (ESB) or “Sovereign Bonds Backed Securtities“ (SBBS) at the May EU summit. The state bond debt of different EU states would be “bundled” into new securities and sold. As the US rating agency Standard and Poors noted, “European safe bonds (ESBies) have been proposed as a tool to increase the supply of ‘AAA’ rated euro-denominated assets and reduce systemic risks from banks’ large holdings of bonds issued by their respective sovereign governments.” The reality they point out is likely to be the opposite. German AAA bonds will have to be “bundled” with higher risk bonds from countries such as Italy or Greece in an effort to sell the risky Greek debt. As the 2007-2008 US asset-backed securities crisis revealed, these schemes to bundle risky debt with safer debt such as Germany backfire badly once a real systemic crisis erupts. As Dutch Prime Minister Rutte warned, beware of US hedge fund operators bearing large gifts and beware of sly attempts to further erode EU national fiscal and other sovereignty to stabilize de facto bankrupt Eurozone French and other banks".

Freggyragh Posted March 19, 2018 Share Posted March 19, 2018 Bloody hell brexiters, you must be deeply upset at this deal. I thought ‘they need us more than we need them’? Looks like these ‘negotiations’ are just ‘realisations’ that take a long time to sink in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Freggyragh Posted March 20, 2018 Share Posted March 20, 2018 It’s not good really though is it. This fiasco has cost a fortune in propping the currency up, hiring thousands of civil servants, losing regulatory agencies, wasted city of culture bids, lost business confidence and lost influence. Then there’s the social cost of this nonsense and the embarrassment of Johnson begging for European solidarity. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
