For years the French and Spanish have blocked anything that threatens the jobs of their own people, or caused too much in the way of red tape. Remember when the French banned our beef and then were fined? They didn't pay the fine and they also covered up the fact that THEY had mad cow disease in their own back yard.It's about time WE did the same here, otherwise there will be no end to the mayhem that is happening now.
Good point Mr. We always play by the rules in this country yet the French stick 2 fingers up at the EU. Time for us to play thier game me thinks...otherwise strikes/riots just *might* come to the streets of the UK.
It already has and brown the clown with his blinkers has sold us all out to not just to Europe but the world!. How long before the chinese or the Indian's come too do our job's!. I AM NOT RACEIST BUT THESE THINGS HAPPEN IN HARD TIME'S AND NOT FOR THE GOOD OF HUMANITY!.
