Hungary, Like Turkey, have been playing political games in the whole Finland and especially Sweden NATO membership, trying to get advantages out of the process.
Basically vetoing deals until they can get something out of it. It’s likely that this fighter deal is part of that.
I’m sorry I hurt your feelings.
I won’t hold my breath. Everybody’s been saying for years that any day now London would crumble and all the banks will move to Frankfurt, and it just hasn’t happened or even begun to happen.
It’s just wishful thinking from people who seemingly want their neighbour to fail.
London is still the financial capital of Europe, Brexit isn’t changing that.
And it’s not up to me to prove why Frankfurt isn’t the financial capital of the continent, it’s up to the people who claim it will be why they think so. What is it based on?
Come on. Give me the data. How is Frankfurt poised to overtake London as the financial capital of Europe. Everybody on the Reddit equivalent of this community has been saying it since day 1, that London’s financial sector is doomed etc. but nothing has happened.
Downvote all you want, but it’s true. People aren’t choosing Frankfurt.
I’m Indian and hate Brexit.
But 0 out of 2 isn’t bad.
Ok Hans, let’s get you to bed
Least anschlussy German
ISILDUR
I mean, no matter what, the UK was always going to remain pretty big in the finance sector.
The people who said that Frankfurt would be the new London were living in a complete fantasy world. It was never going to happen.
E: come on people, I know you desperately want your neighbour to fail, but be realistic. Frankfurt wasn’t going to become the financial capital of the continent, that’s laughable.
Frankfurt isn’t London, and anybody who thought they could be has been comprehensively proven wrong, regardless of what their precious feelings are telling them.
Cast it into the fire! Destroy it!
Wales is not part of England. Please stop spreading misinformation.
Wales is part of the UK.
It’s not really debatable, that’s what they are. A constituent country like Scotland or England.
They went from being a principality with some sovereignty to having none.
No. They have some level of sovereignty now. But they are part of the UK and thus can’t ignore UK-level decisions.
Currently they have devolved powered but the UK parliament has full sovereignty and can veto anything the Senedd decides.
The same is true for Scotland. England doesn’t even have any power in this sense, they don’t have any devolved parliament. How does this mean Wales isn’t a constituent country of the UK?
They have no currency or mint. No separate legal system. No separate military.
So? You’re clearly not understanding what constituent country of the UK means. Yeah, they’re in the UK and use UK currency and military. Legal system is a bit complicated in that they’re joined but Wales can still set their own laws. How is that relevant?
If Scotland left and the Union was broken they’d be a part of England again.
No they wouldn’t. This is based on literally nothing other than your own assertion.
Also, you keep flipping between Wales is part of England and Wales isn’t part of England.
Eh, EU membership or no EU membership, the UK is pretty big on European defense pacts and the like.
Much like the rest of the UK then lmao
It’s a complete pisstake that a referendum with such slim a majority result, held immediately after the EU refugee crisis when anti-EU sentiment was at an all-time high both in the UK and elsewhere, has caused so much upheaval.
The likes of France and the Netherlands actually had greater anti-EU sentiment at the time than the UK had. Fortunately for them, their leaders weren’t reckless morons like David Cameron was.
Wales hasn’t been a principality of England for quite a while…
Wales is a separate constituent country just like England or Scotland.
It’s NI that’s… complicated.
We aren’t talking about taking on, we’re talking about Russia launching thousands of nukes in retaliation to an invasion.
Maybe you don’t know, but that’s fairly different to the kind of boots on the ground fighting going on in Ukraine.
Are you so certain of that that it’s worth risking the slaughter of almost everyone in Europe and North America?
We’re not talking about a £10 bet on the horses here, mate, we’re talking billions of lives being on the line.
the EU will wish it had attacked Russia now.
Nuclear holocaust 🥰🥰🥰❤️
Agreed, but you better be ready to not buy any other vehicles. They all use parts made in China.
Clearly to ensure Ukrainian children don’t grow up in their own culture, and one prong of their overarching plan to destroy that culture and cultural identity.
In other words, attempted genocide.
