We beg to differ
Quote:In fact as you said you were on benefits there fore taking more than you contribute then some would class you as a parasite in fact some might say pensioners are parasites

thanks.
Yet no warning about likening peoples comments to nazi properganda? with particular reference to Jews; that is, just about as offensive as it gets.
Nobody was likening 'whole nations of people' but more the act of taking more from your host, this, unlike insinuations of anti semetic nazi sympathies, is a a fact.

Wrong, I have never read or had any knowledge of that article, so I wasn't using THEIR words.
Your likening to anti semetic nazi properganda is whole offensive and massively misses the point.
^^ don't describe nations as parasitic and nobody will liken your language to that of the nazi's. simple.
do you really think starting an argument with me over this is wise?

Do you really think I care about your threats?
You have left a clear insinuation of anti semetic nazi sympathies un warned, wearas you have warned somehting that is factually correct, but you personally do not like the descriptor.
This article is based on conversations with Dr. Holger P. Hestermeyer, Shell reader in International Dispute Resolution at the Dickson Poon School of Law, Professor Anand Menon, director of UK in a Changing Europe and professor of European Politics and Foreign Affairs at Kings College London, and Dr James Strong, fellow in Foreign Policy Analysis and International Relations at the London School of Economics and Political Science.

A very good article, but so much depends on the EU and whether they stick to their view that article 50 must be invoked before any negotiations can take place.
