Anyway, if these elections are what is required for the EU to look at both immigration policy and changes to Schengen, then maybe it's a good thing. As we're not part of the EU anymore, I guess we don't need to get our knickers too much in a twist either way. I've been told for years nothing ever changes within the EU anyway, so I'll not hold my breath for sweeping reforms over the coming weeks/months I don't know of anyone who said that. 'Others will follow' yes but nothing is 'soon' in relation to the top heavy and bungling bureaucracy. Everyone knew that. Quote

Miami, on several occasions, in fact the Dutch would follow within 12-18 months apparently, of people who post on here (not that it matters, as almost everything he predicted failed to happen). I believe Farage said it as well, although I maybe wrong, I'll have a quick look shortly. Quote

And younger voters are always more likely to vote against the established order! It’s interesting to see that many young voters are moving to towards the right in Europe. I’d guess high youth unemployment in the EU is a main driver for this reaction and high levels of immigration won’t be helping the situation. Quote

Dunno, had a quick look and can't find anything, so I'll give up and withdraw the remark about anybody half sensible suggesting it, and just leave it as Miami 🙂 Either way, it'll be interesting to see what, if anything, does happen in the EU, and also what happens in France in their upcoming GE. I heard on the radio earlier, that the turnout for our upcoming GE, could be the lowest turnout since before the war....that's how shit the choices really are Quote

It is, as the young voters, allegedly, are more towards the left here in the UK (I guess we'll soon find out) - although that maybe because we have zero unemployment, so they can be ideological about such things My nephews live in Bristol and when I saw them last week, they were 100% against Tory and Reform, but also didn't like Starmer, which leaves them in a bit of a pickle, as it's their first time to vote in a GE, and they're quite excited about it....so they're going "Green" this time I believe (although the younger may sway to LibDem) Quote

frank_spencer Posted June 10 Posted June 10 In my 40s and given PR votes my cross would be going in the Green box, don't agree with all their views but definitely more than the other parties. As it's FPTP I'll be voting Labour as the candidate is a decent chap who genuinely seems to give a shit, that said you'd have to go some to be more a cunt than James Daly Quote
