We had a veto, if ever we didn’t like anything then it didn’t happen, simple We sometimes conceded ground on largely irrelevant things like fishing, but we off set that by dominating European banking for decades. A pragmatic decision that benefited us massively Anyone who believes we should throw financial services under the bus to protect our fishing territory should have their right to vote withdrawn IMO GDP goes back by -1% and the tax revenue lost will swallow up the benefit of keeping our NET contribution to the EU. Any GDP move below -1% and we’ve lost money on the decision. Only if the move leads to GDP growing will it be deemed a success Any GDP growth because of BREXIT looks highly unlikely for at least 5 years, if not a decade and then it relies on us getting a trade deal with the US / the EU not getting one But but but... EU Army, Turkey joining, Euro forced on us, bendy bananas and Sovereignty FFS! All jingoistic bullshit. Still, we have left so have to get get on with it. Quote

It’s not a trick question as I don’t know. Some examples Environment Action Programme 1972 Waste Framework Directive 1975 Bathing Water Directive 1976 Air Quality Framework Directive 1976 Quote

Links would be better but when I have time or the inclination, I’ll have a look. Directive is a curious term. Generally used in the Soviet Socialist era. Has it now become common in EU parlance?

Seriously, where have you read that the word "Directive" is suspicious? Are you people really that malleable? Edited December 12, 2020 by Cheese Quote

Problem is that what our PM thinks as funny and likeable is seen as insulting overseas, this was shown up when he had the Foreign Secretary role and a certain lady is still holed up in Iran. Bloody Etonian liability, we will never get anywhere with his like. Quote
