being brought into force by the EU and their sudden realisation that they have precisely zero means of democratic redress.
Thick cùnts. :hehe: :hehe:
I mean look at the state of this prick. :hehe:

Coming soon: speed limiters on cars. They're creating an authoritarian socialistik paradise, and there's nothing we can do to stop them.Quote:

They said that it will destroy internet memes which is apparently people posting small video clips to make a point that they could have made far better if they could actually speak a language properly.Quote:

Actually, it's just occurred to me that Article 13 will have a massive effect on Jorge. :hehe:Quote:

Every single Swedish MEP voted against this. Every single one.
But Swedes will all still have to live with it because the frogs want it. And there is nothing whatsoever that Swedes can do to change it. They just have to sit there and suck on it.
But friendship 'n brotherhood, right? :hehe:
Who gives a **** about the Swedes?Quote:

The whole premise of the European project is fatally flawed by the non-existence of a sense of European nationhood.
Hang on. They protested action on global warming by stopping trams?Quote:

I would probably argue that these are the kinds of issues that a supra national body like the EU should focus on, rather than banning fags.
Yep, I did wonder how most of them actually got into the cityQuote:

It's a swindle, of that I have absolutely no doubt. Legions of timewasters in lab coats, incapable of earning a living in the real world, being paid to manipulate data to support vested interests sucking taxation from working schmoes and routing it directly into their 'renewable energy' :hehe: schemes.Quote:
