Sir Nigel Farage

[Vinty]

John Surtees (rip) should have received a knighthood for his unique achievment in motor sport

Lewis Hamilton still hasn't had his achievements recognised.

 

[Vinty]

Because he is despised by more than half the population. Good comparison though.

The honors system is no longer fit for purpose.
Tax dodgers and perverts don't seem to have any problems getting knighthoods while honest people get sidelined.
Can't see why Nigel would want a knighthood.

 

[Vinty]

The article is about recognising independence

My point exactly, the EU recognise independence movements which breakup rival political unions but oppose independence for ethnic minorities in states which support the EU.

When was it fit for purpose and when did it end?

Eh?

John Surtees lived in Edenbridge where I grew up.

EU opposes self determination for Catalans but supports self determintion for places like Kosovo, EU supports Scottish and Irish nationalists because they want to break up the UK and stay in the EU,https://www.brugesgroup.com/blog/scottish-independence-snp-are-just-yes-men-for-the-eu
EU opposes self rule for Eastern Ukraine but has supported the violent breakup of the former union of Yugoslavia into independent states.
A pattern seems to be emerging, don't you agree.

That article doesnt really contain any evidence, its more a rather biased interpretation of a few minor events put together as a conspiracy.
The Bruges group is a right wing think tank that is known to be a source for conspiracy theories.

The EU doesnt want to break up the UK.
Brexiteers voted for Johnson deal
Brexiteers are responsible for breaking up the UK.

 

[noseall]

don't you agree.

No.

Another unsubstantiated nonsense post by Vinty.

 

[fillyboy]

Vinty is bang on the money that the EU are using 'divide and rule' tactics with the Irish border being a good example. The EU border plan does far more to violate the good Friday agreement than Brexit.
Still, we've a top man in control now, if anyone can sort it he can.

Doing my bit to slow down climate change

Never had f all

The Irish border is a very bad example.

Who has caused the problems associated with it?
