  1. This needs to stop, to have your own government attacking you when the majority have already done what was asked is both exhausting and terrifying.

  2. They should have kept the British in charge.

  3. Boris has out played Macron. Boris said we will train 10000 Ukrainan troops every 3 months. Macron has said Ukraine may be allowed to join the EU if they are lucky. Boris has Macrons number.

  4. Do the EU actually have anything to bargain with?

  6. why? The UK actually hasn't done anything yet. The protocol has marginalised one of Northern irelands main communities and colapsed the assembly. I think the EUs argument is running dry...

  7. Well I bet that speech went down like a lead balloon in Poland.

  8. Well yes, wasn't that the point of nato? To contain Russia?

  9. are they not all scotish settlers in the north of Ireland? It was also Scottish soldiers in the North which were murdered that kicked off the troubles.

  10. I still bet on the usa to win!!

  11.  @crhu319  Macrons imaginary EU membership or Boris's military aid. I know who I would side with. Like I said Boris has Macrons number.

  12. The courts ruled he hadn't done anything wrong and abided by the law. Then the decision was over turned for political gain. The court system is supposed to be impartial and is one of the few checks and balances to stop a country falling into tyrany. Australia is a joke.

  13. ....and yet our economy still has a higher growth rate and lower unemployement rate than the majority of EU nations.

  14. why?

  15. Sein Fein can't trigger anything. Only Westminster can do that. But its the DUPs own fault, they betrayed their voters.

  16.  @user-ze8yy8jg1f  The UK didn't want to move in the army. It had to. It was to protect local people from sein feins death squads.

  17. Boris has been honest, reliable and helpful. Compare that to the EUs pointless virtue signalling.

  18. weren't the EU putting up fences and blasting starving imigrants with water cannons? And let's not mention the illegal weapons sold to Russia...

  19. ah bringing peace to the region by stoking division. Good work joe.

  20. The Irish courts ruled the UK wasn't a safe country. They can't send them back.

  21.  @ruthjilani4760  it means everything! Boris is going no where!! While Macron is virtue signalling and working on his image Boris is actually committing some practical. What we learned in recent months is you know who your friends are and who you can trust. It certainly isn't France or Germany.

  22. ...and the conservatives will now use this as an excuse to drop out the European court of human rights.

  23. ever heard of the expression "killed with kindness"? It sums up the left in my opinion...

  24. be realistic, Macron is far to close to Putin to allow Ukraine to join the EU. And i am sure zelensky will not have forgotten Macrons not so secret phone calls to Putin. This is all just hot air.

  25.  @cabellones  the dup, uup and the tuv. The aliance party have to trend a fine line, they are effectively liberal minded northern irish Brits.

  26.  @nicholascummins4430  ..and Sein fein are child murderers. They killed two children (blew to pieces) in Cheshire in the mid 90s. The murderers were never punished and allowed to get away scot free!! These types are still part of the party.

  27. both sein fein and the dup are anti eu parties. Neither side wanted to join in the first place. Its the one thing they actually agreed on.

  28. ...and Germany comited genocide in South West africa. It also murdered so many of its own people in the 30s and 40s its collapsed its own economy.

  29. ??? Putin hasn't place 150000 troops on the Ukrainan border for fun mate. Putin really isn't the copromising type.

  30. You are failing to miss the bigger picture. Just because you are catholic doesn't mean you want a united Ireland, they very much part of British society now. Time moves on. The cost of living is cheaper and they get free health care in the UK. And Sein fein are winning by default, DUP voters have switched to the UUP. Support for the union hasn't changed.

  31. maybe you should relay that information to Germany and her weapons deliveries to Ukraine. It was the UK who was the honest partner.

  32. The way France are going at the moment my guess is they will probably be ignored!!

  33. the Americans will invest and pump the money in.

  34.  @dontworryimnotastalker5486  .. and the IRA where murdering British citizens as a form of ethnic cleansing, the army moved in to protect them. But terrible things were commited by both sides and concidering what happened it was amazing both sides managed to work together in the assembly.

  35.  @dontworryimnotastalker5486  Sein fein murdered children, pregnant women, inocent farmers and families. They killed members of our royal family and assinated British politicians. This went on for decades. Sein Fein were not victims.

  36. you add up all the pro uk parties and pro uk catholics and the Pro uk side are the largest majority by a long way. Stop reporting lies and on things you don't understand.

  37. yep, and proceeded to sink the French fleet and claim their territory to remind them who was still free.

  38. The problem is the majority of the people in the north don't want a united Ireland, they want to remain part of Britain. Historically they will take up arms to protect their place in the UK.

  39. I looked into this, Chamberlain was buying time. Britain didn't have its army ready.

  40. yeah must be irritating sein fein can't murder our citizens anymore and get away with it!! They murdered two children near my house growing up with a bomb, they still think their actions were justified.

  41.  @edytha2090  it's that attitude why no one trusts Germany.
