It would have been interesting to fully hear what Raab had to say instead of that abrupt cut off after his first words in response. That said, those opening words do allow the fella in the video to launch into a personal attack on Raab. Which I guess is enough. Well, for some people.

Believe me the rest was willfully, deceitful waffle. At one point he seemed to be blaming fishermen for destroying their own stock!

Looks like the EU's response to the vaccine delivery is proving an absolute disaster. They are floundering and in widespread disagreement. While I feel for the people, it really is great to see the crumbling of that cretinous, bureaucratic empire in front of our very eyes. 10 more years and it will be done with. Thank fuck we are out of that thing. Meanwhile, our vaccine roll out is proving the best in the world. Good to see us leading the way once again. The UK roll out is not the best. As often the case the UK were first to get going and innovative, but we have quickly lost the lead: www.businessinsider.com/covid-19-vaccination-rates-by-country-2021-1?r=US&IR=TThe EU have already said the UK was premature in releasing the vaccine, just waiting for them to say "there isn't a level playing field".

In all fairness to Vote Leave and Gove et al., they didn't really stipulate anything about shellfish.
These drivers need to remember that those shellfish are happy British shellfish and it their sovereign right to go unsold.

A bit of self awareness and you might have observed that our own Union seems likely to crumble in something far less than the 10 years you've optimistically predicted for the EU. Unless that's the "leading the way" you were referring to.

Unless that's the "leading the way" you were referring to. I've always been pretty pro Scotland leaving if that's what their democratic process takes them too. But I think we'd see a pretty different vote in practice to what the SNP will have you believe. It was a dead cert 6 years ago and they got utterly humiliated. Who do you think will be worse off if Scotland leave the union?

And it won't stop with Scotland.

Let's see if they have the ball's to do it this time, I am all for them leaving the Union I am presuming the Scots. will be funding this second once in a lifetime referendum, it will take four and a half years to actually come to fruition, there will be court cases and numerous whingers trying to stall the process, they will have to pay us a divorce bill, they create their own army or join the EU army that we were assured would never materialise, have their own currency, they will have to reach a trade agreement with the rest of the UK and they will require visas to visit the rest of the UK, no problem the first hurdle will be getting the EU dictatorship to accept them into the United States of Europe.

The EU empire is crumbling and you know it. It will be very interesting when Ergodan comes knocking on the door threatening to unleash millions of immigrants on to mainland Europe if Turkey are not allowed to join within the next three years, I wonder what course of action they would take ? I can envisage a war if the Turks don't get their own way one that we will do very well to keep out of.

Erdogan is creating an increasingly hostile atmosphere with a staunch Islamist undertone. In the West, the wokester elites would rather sip their soy lattes in the local vegan caf and compare Trump to Hitler (a comical comparison), while ignoring an actual far right (or far left depending on how you view it) dictatorship. The treatment of the Kurds has been dreadful for years as has his utter purging of Turkish Christians and make no mistake about it - The Jihadi Express (the flight from Istanbul to Gaziantep) is well and truly alive and well. Isis will rise again in Turkey, there can be little question of that.

Meanwhile the EU turn a blind eye to the terrible human and animal rights that exist openly in Turkey, throwing billions of euros at them to allegedly align their behaviour with the rest of the EU with a view to allowing them to join their corrupt club, the French in particular will push back but be ground down under the heel of the Germans once again. Thank God we are no longer obligated to these charlatans we need to sit back and watch the whole ball of string to unravel whilst strengthening our borders.

The same EU that have just posted on twitter celebrating their new trade deal with the horrifying Chinese Communist Party. A scandalous outfit at best.

I would imagine the population of those three countries being around the population of france alone would have been taken into account Also there is ease of travel will have on respective numbers Thousands of miles of air travel is distinctly different to a twenty odd mile channel hop

Turkey won't be joining the EU in the near or middle future....and Erdogan won't be around forever.
The 'Purging of Christians' is one of the biggest load of bollocks I've ever read on here.
Seems clear to me that there are many people on here who have either never been to Turkey, or who have had little to no interaction with native Turkish people.
Also seems clear that there are some on here who keep shouting that the EU is crumbling, falling apart, etc. I'm not sure why they feel the need to keep shouting such things, for no apparent reason other than to try to feel better about themselves? I honestly don't get the unnecessary hostility.
We've left the EU, but seemingly there are some that still have a deep and unhealthy obsession with it. Move on already.
