And even if the voters had voted by majority to remain, we were told it was scare mongering to even suggest the EU may form it's own army. That's probably why all remainers I've raised the EU army with have nt thought it through, or more accurately they won't mention any good points and won't comment upon the many bad points which are easily identified. ( I apologise if you didn't see my identification of the many issues with having an EU army earlier this week on this thread ) Why won't the EU share intelligence anymore ? Seems odd to not have access to our superior intelligence Anyway, cheers for the comprehensive reply ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not a fact that intelligence won't be shared after Brexit. And whilst it's true I can't prove an EU army is a bad thing for the UK to join it's highly probable to be a bad thing Also it's a fact the 2016 referendum voters were told there would be no EU Army, which was a lie Do you like the UK as a sovereign state?

Headlines would be Racist Nigel Farage doesn't want to trade with the EU, etc. Shitty people will just distort the truth and reality. Even now, remainers are being disingenuous and are fine with their use of language. Implying no deal means no trade whatsoever. I look forward to your Utopia.

The project became a mission to have a national anthem, join the UN security council and have it's own army. It's not surprising we voted to leave when looked at simplistically. The EU leaders still think a future generation will take us back into Europe and openly say this. As opposed to just letting and accepting fact we are leaving. Giving the extension, merely in the hope the WA would finally be accepted by the UK was simply a waste of time and has sadly increased uncertainty. The Universities found lots of funding from the EU and have created a new generation of non thinkers. I agree with your post, but I don't find it tiresome people can't debate and discuss issues, I personally find it a fascinating insight into human intelligence. After accusing various forum members of either being stupid or lacking in intelligence. You go on to claim that an entire generation of students are unable to think for themselves. I didn't realize that we were in the presence of a person of such superior intellect. Are you referring to the current batch of graduates or are you including all university graduates since the seventies, when we joined joined the common market? If so then no wonder our present politicians are failing to achieve brexit. But if you are just referencing this new batch of graduates. Then the future is looking very bleak. Oh wait, all we need to do is assimilate your thinking and everything will be fine, as we enter that glorious new, EU free, era as described by Igor.

Sounds like a democratic approach. Questions I asked a remainer who asked me what was wrong with an EU army. No reply as yet. And today another remainer asked what I thought was bad. I politely asked for any good reasons and was given intelligence sharing ( which happens in the EU regardless of whether an EU army edits or not ) A reminder to the remainers of why an EU army is bad How do you see it operating? Does the UK get to use all our army or just parts of it ? Under who's control? Who pays for it ? Who decides whether the UK renew any nuclear deterrent? The EU or the UK? If the EU decide is that the EU commissionaires? Do we let our army follow EU foreign policy decisions? Do we let EU or NATO have first call on our support ? What if NATO decides to take no action ( say against Iran ) but the EU decide to take military action. Do we just go against NATO ? Does the EU thus become a nuclear power over night?

Highgate Posted July 11, 2019 Share Posted July 11, 2019 Why couldn't the UK simply opt out of a putative EU Army like the UK opted out of the Euro? If a country wants to join it let them join, if they don't let them stay out. What's so problematic? I hardly think the EU could make the Army compulsory for individual nations.

If the Ukraine joins the EU, Putin will send in the tanks so we would be automatically at war with Russia if we remain in a EU army a scary prospect indeed.
