    Two of those countries fought with us in World War 2 - and had the highest number of casualties of any belligerents - and the other was only formed at the end of WW2 when the USSR and USA divided it after liberation from Japan.

    Why are the USA our friends, and China and USSR our enemies? All 3 of them have their own interests at heart - often to the detriment of others, including our own.

    Anti semitic abuse? Was it actual racism against Jewish people or was he calling out Israel's genocide of the Palestines? If it's the first he's pondlife, if its the latter then that's not antisemitism - that's basic humanitarian compassion

    What has that got to do with it? That was 75 years ago when we were fighting against Germany. Not saying USA are our friends, but I know they are friendlier than Russia n China. In case you missed it, China’s just released Covid-19 on the world resulting in hundreds of thousands of deaths.

    I'm not knocking your views and opinions, I was taken aback by your wording, and your dig at anyone and everyone that doesn't agree with you, the thing is your right and that's all that matters.

    I just want to know if this is true. If it is, this government is not fit for purpose.

    Eh?? Anyone can disagree with me if they so choose, but when so many people were apparently happy to put a proven, documented, serial liar, bully and cheating, work-shy racist into Number 10, when it was crystal clear what havoc he would wreak on them and their communities, you have to question whether their brains are still actually functioning at all. Difficult quantifying that as an opinion, when every shred of evidence suggests it's fact.

    What has it got to do with Brexit? If you ask the Italians I’m pretty sure they would say the Germans & French aren’t really good mates. The EU were as bad as us in their preparation for Covid-19 but as soon as **** hit the fan they were pulling up the draw bridge.

    Err, Germany and France both refused to export medical supplies to Italy. Not really in the spirit of all in it together as the EU claim. They can’t even agree on a budget since we left. Bickering over how best to pay for this crisis.

    So the EU didn't pull up any draw bridges then. Individual countries used their ability to make individual decisions. I thought that nasty EU forced member states to do what it wanted?

    Last month:

    "Nine EU states have fully sealed their borders to non-nationals over the coronavirus pandemic, despite experts saying it will do no good.

    The Czech Republic, Cyprus, Denmark, Hungary, Latvia, Lithuania, Poland, Slovakia, and Spain have announced they would close borders to all foreigners.

    Some in the group, such as Denmark, made allowances for non-nationals who were delivering goods to the country.

    The moves followed partial closures and extra border checks imposed by Austria, Hungary, Slovenia, and several other countries.

    Germany also joined the part-closure group on Monday (16 March), by all-but sealing its frontiers with Austria, Denmark, France, and Luxembourg, while Slovenia closed its border with Italy."

    So individual countries have made individual decisions. That isn't the EU. It's countries.

    So many people so uneducated on the EU and yet given a vote on our countries future. **** me

    People think our nurses having no PPE is a bad thing but fortunately we voted for Brexit and the Tories are allowed to abolish the human rights act and remove guaranteed working conditions so it's all good. No lawsuits

    • Are allowed to
    • Have done

    You'll find there is a difference in the two bullet points above. One is what I wrote, the other is what you seem to think I wrote.

    Oh, but it's worth mentioning that their manifesto did promise to update the human rights act in a way that strongly inferred rights would be removed
