Who said "oh, the erosion of states' powers will *never* happen in the EU"?

ROFL

Suckers.

Surely that article is a joke???

It's The Sun, so probably. Or if the map is real, it's probably about trade zones.

Still a great article.

its The Sun. Which means any possible attempt to induce a frothy mouthed "don't mention the war" bout of Brit-rabies will be taken up.

Since when have the national borders of Wales, Ireland and Scotland been of any interest to the ENglish anyway? Officially they are "principalities" ...

Meanwhile, it's generally a lot easier to live and work on the continent than in the good ole UK of  for many people. Oh, unless of course Daddy left you a house to live in ...

Fuck the Sun and all it stands for.

>GERMANY is plotting to wipe Britain off the map in their revived bid to create an EU superstate.

That first paragraph there told me everything I needed to know.

ROFL.

AH the Sun - the newspaper that give nepotism a bad name - whether it's the attempts to find work for the editor's husband or articles hyping Mudoch's business interests.

But the worst thing of all is the way the newsprint comes off on your arse...

Very funny, those cokeheads at the sun just get better at writing.

"Fuck the Sun and all it stands for" and its readership

anyone who reads the sun deserves whatever they get.

Even a swab of newspaper ink on the arse?

Yup, even that.

I wonder if it itches.

Not really, no.

(memo to self - don't recycle old jokes, it's a tough crowd)

I'll give it a try at the end of the month.

The Sun is actually quite left wing nowadays.

+ they are reporting facts, don't see the problem with that??

The Sun is not and will never be left wing. It's owned by Murdoch for chrissakes.

Whilst I'm no great fan of the EU as a political institution I do take much of what it's accused of by the tabloids with a pinch of salt. It even set up its own rebuttal site:

"The regions of England are referred to as Economic Planning Regions as previously designated by the UK government"

HAH! I called "trade zones" last night. :P
