    Exactly..and the 450 million of your closest Neighbors is a good start. The great success of the Chinese model has been a result of rewarding some enterprise, massive amounts of state intervention, community rights (as defined by an all powerful party) having precedence over any individual...

    Tommie ,you cannot really be that thick, so I am assuming you are being obtruse. The Government is not Parliament. The Prime Minister speaks for the Government, ..ie the group of people elected or selected by Parliament to sit in the Cabinet Room , but only speaks for Parliament after an...

    . Interesting that you omitted the last sentence fron that BBC website message.. the one which shows that the EU is not petty and vindictive... And I quote "In May last year, the European Commission indicated it would continue funding cross-border projects in Northern Ireland after...

    50 hertz, you are a newcomer to this forum, so cannot be expected to have followed all the subtleties of 45000 posts. . The legal position in the UK is that Parliament is supreme. Therefore no one can instruct Parliament. Even your highest court can only advise on constitutional issues. In...

    Yes. I do so believe. Is the concept of solidarity so difficult to follow. ?. The German government,the Irish government,the US President, the Russian President and Uncle Tom Cobbley are all entitled to proffer advice,and to influence your Parliament in an open way. What is Diplomacy other...

    I can believe the import of your last sentence..there is a lot of tensions out there. Could you not also accept that similar tensions even more deep seated exist in the border communities of NI ?

    Oh come on now, division by 3 should not be beyond you.. My actual point was that those numbers in the context of a UK population, do not even register as noise, its three Wembley stadiums or three Croke Park attendances at most.

    First. I will be very happy if Bombardier in Belfast have any of that order to fulfill. It will help to stem the job losses in the sector. Building of wings is an exacting activity. . So good. However there are caveats. The deal is not 4 billion to NI, substantial amounts will be elsewhere in...

    No.. yet again no. Perhaps I should take OG sage advice in this topic, but in any event... I believe I said ,on two occasions, that I was tempted ,to allow you continue in the folly, and would then derive some modicum of satisfaction from the misery you would have inflicted on yourselves. I...
