This is where I love the frenchies, bastians of all things European, then all these poxy laws and rules are thought up and implemented, all of Europe has to adopt these poxy laws, and the French stick two large fingers up at everyone and "NON, We aint doing that Jack" ! Bless 'em!

The Frenchies have got it right though.
They act in their own best national interests, where as our government behaves as if we are a charity to solve the world's problems.
We have no tradition of revolution, and are too busy paying our mortgages to worry about the future.
The reason we have had no big European wars for the last 60 years is not because of the EU, it is because the UK,USA @ USSR bombed the f*** out of the last bunch who thaught war was a good idea. Then the Marshall plan gave them an alternative to re-armament.
