Quote:I bet Greece regrets not leaving a couple years ago. They should have taken the pain then. Despite the fact that their debt was reorganized, they are getting screwed being the dumping ground for all the economic 'refugees.'

 

BTW, I fundamentally disagree with you on whether the UK can afford to leave the EU. They are the 5th largest economy in the world. They can do what they want. Short term the globalists will panic and drive the market crazy, but in 5 years this move will look good, and Briton won't have to hear about Londonstan or w/e they call it due to EU forced 'redistribution' of migrants.

If Greece had left they'd be a third world country by now. And they'd still have the refugee problem because Greece is the shortest route to the EU from the Middle East, only difference would that the EU would be able to just outright refuse to take in refugees from Greece because hey, you're not in the EU and therefor not our problem. 

 

So the UK is the 5th largest economy, that means they went from being part of the second largest economy to being the fifth. Down three spots, well done there. China, the US and the EU are going to bend them over and re-enact Deliverance. As for your Londonstan argument; poppycock. Even if that name was apt (which it very much isn't) that problem wouldn't go away by leaving the EU, many of the Muslims in the UK are born there and grew up there. Three of the four London bombers were born in the UK with the fourth born in Jamaica and growing up in the UK.
