Would I be right in thinking that you are not 100% content with the result of EU Ref?

It sounds like you want to kill the Trots. Does that make you a Stalinist?

If you like Stalin so much, why don't you go live there?

I have a little bit of a monk on about it, yes.

When we're paying the same amount for EEA access, the same free movement, no say, no citizenship and only have the racists who helped out and are demanding unfulfilled and unfulfillable promises to be made good on to contend with I'm sure I'll feel better about it.

(One of the students I work most closely with was spat on last week for speaking Greek with her friends. If that had been the only outcome I would be kicking off about it. The "Trust me I'm Polish" t-shirt I just bought from eBay in the hopes of some squat little gadge having a crack is making me feel a little better, though. Kurwa.).

The Georgians are trying to get into the EU. Perhaps if they succeed, he will?!

Still, we wouldn't get in would we?

Scotland used to include Cumbria & Northumberland. But obviously, offering Berwick the chance to re-join after a successful independence vote would be the initial legal test case I would think.

My instinct is towards internationalism and a permanent revolution that transforms all societies from their agrarian base into more advanced models with travelling labour armies to descend on an area and transform its infrastructure.

After the civil war that killed its supporters Socialism in One Country and its attendant failures for the general culture were all that was left.

Base and superstructure, motherfsckers. Base and superstructure.

This certainly does cause a lot of concern hearing this. After all, it is fair to say that if the "racists" want to get out and pedal their bile then I would have though that they would not have to do much looking for targets in Bradford and West Yorkshire?

It is odd to think of us up here being being seen as "sensible!" It is not something I am particularly comfortable with either.
