Subject: RE: BS: To Br/Exit Or Not To Br/Exit
The Serbo Croation conflict happened long before those countries became members of the E.U., Cyprus is at peace (sort of) - border disputes are not warfare.
Turkey is an interesting point - its membership has been blocked until it cleans up its human rights - a case for Europe rather than against it.
In the present situation Europe has to be regarded as a stop-gap rather than a permanent solution - I wouldn't trust any of the bastards inside or outside of the Union.
Would you seriously consider destabalising the security of Irish kids working abroad if Ireland's membership was under consideration?
In the case of Putin and Trump - in or out doesn't make the slightest difference either way, in or out, so why not take what's on offer anyway?
