BobyBrno Posted October 7, 2022 Posted October 7, 2022 Haven’t seen any comments about the first meeting in Prague of the European Political Community. Anyone have any thoughts on it. Nice photo of our Prime Minister with her Czech counterpart in my favourite spot in Prague.  Quote

We've left the Single Market (which was the only good bit of EU membership, according to them), only to become bit-part players in a new European Political Community (which was the aspect of the EU they despised the most).

I agree apart from the bit players. That’s just your opinion. Time will tell but as a remainer myself, I think it shows we are still involved and an important part of European politics. With the threat from Russia, it’s important that Europe shows solidarity.

Of course they insist that we are involved in anything related to security. Who else in Europe would be capable of liberating any subjugated European state? 'Bit players'. He's playing with his bit again. Be interesting to see what happens when Italy ramps up the leaving debate. Quote

You're a clever bloke mate, you're not naive enough to think Truss gaining power isnt to do with donors and oligarchs surely? Rishi was an absolute shoe in. Their backers didn't want him though. Vested interests.  Edited October 9, 2022 by gonzo Quote

Vested interests.  Lies, mistruths, and exaggerated claims from both sides, fundamentally for me it boiled down to no longer wanting to go down the federalist route, an ultimately I don’t trust the Germans and French and rather be out of their tentacles. The Tory party members voted her in… doubt the oligarchs had many votes. Edited October 9, 2022 by Mounts Kipper Quote
