Isn't a slave rising up against their master a good thing? I'm still baffled why people are upset about this metaphor/figure of speech. Britain with it's referendum win is rising up against it's rulers from Brussels. It must take an absolute wally to not see the corilation or purposefully getting upset, I think the latter.

Because it’s insulting to suggest the struggle of a slave rising up is comprable to us trying to leave the EU. It’s a moronic comparison.

This clearly shows that the EU is continuing down the path of closer integration. Something that Remainers need to consider, there is no status quo here. That'll be the ECB declaring that the Italian gold that belongs to the Italian worker is no longer their's. Dontcha just love 'the bloc'........... Buy Litecoin.

I often wonder how much gold that's in 'storage' actually even exists.

Edited by dollardays (05 Jul 2019 8.20pm) Very true and correct BUT They surely still have to buy into OUR way of life. To a degree. I'm not saying they have to believe in the same God or even believe in our western expectations. Look at mayor khant and his attitude to bra adverts upsetting the Muslim population. Where is his view on the high majority of protesters about the LGBTQ lessons. This is an example of double standards for a minority. This isnt a total pop as I dont give a s* about skin colour. What I give a s* about is assimilation with the indigenous population.
