Absolutely correct.

The president of the European Parliament is a communist.

The President of the Russian Parliament is not.

Merkel, Rajoy, Barosos, Juncker.... all either formerly communist or communist sympathisers. No pattern to see here. No, no no!

Funny how the populations rejected Communism (sometimes violently), but the politicians still find it attractive!

Oh dear.

Using that ridiculous meme renders just about everything else you say inadmissible.

fk me fella - you really need to lighten up - just a little wink

If you read it all and that's the only thing you could pick me up on....

How about debunking my reasons to leave - you've had three and I've not seen them torn to shreds and exposed as complete rubbish

I'm waiting with number 4.....

Maybe I should do 273 first after all you know what that is already - soft target and you should be able to rip it to shreds

And he doesn't even know the difference between Russia and the USSR.

Priceless entertainment, please do keep delivering.

They simply can't resist the idea of some animals being more equal.

Are you due a parrot?

The USSR no longer exists. In a few years time neither will the EU

Fella, they've been torn to shreds so many times it's getting beyond the realms of humour. The fact you don't want to hear it isn't really my problem.

The 273 schtick is getting quite thin.

Well, quite, the USSR no longer exists, and was an entirely different country to contemporary Russia. That was my point entirely, so put Polly back in her cage. don4l seems to be struggling with that though.

I didn't reference the non-existant USSR.

You did.

What do you think about the fact that the President of the Europoean Parliamnen is a communist?

Wrong again, B'stard Child referenced the (E)USSR, and the President of the European Parliament is not a Communist. Really, telling whoppers is no way to engage sensibly in a debate. Although you'd be forgiven for thinking so given the results of the EU Referendum and the US Presidential election.

Anyway, in today's "We're making a huge success of Brexit" news, Boris Johnson has conceded that freedom of movement can remain, and David Davis has said we will probably be OK with coughing up EU budget contributions in return for ongoing single market membership.

Remind me again how making things a bit more st and difficult than they were is some kind of epiphanic, euphoric success? It's unravelling day by day.

No he didn't. Don't make it up, you only make youself look foolish. He reference the EuSSR; big E, small u, which you have attempted to invert to change the emphasis.

I understand the EuSSR to be the European Soviet Socialist Republic. So nothing to do with Russia then, not the European branch of the USSR.

So there's parallels to be drawn between the EU and the USSR. What is so hard to comprehend without projecting your childish prejudices?

As you appear to be in favour of remaining a member of the Single Market and FoM surely you should be pleased at this news?

My childish prejudices? Jesus, comparing the EU to the USSR is about as childish and ill-informed as it gets. There's no such thing as a European Soviet Socialist Republic, isn't now and never was. So EuSSR is a clear jibe, equating the EU with the USSR.

Bloody hell, is this the best you lot have got? Pathetic. Or, if you agree with the comparison, please could you provide evidence of the EU's pogroms, persecutions, imprisonment of political prisoners, forced relocations of minorities, concentration camps etc.

wow, that was quite impressive, 3 mins between posts and in that time you arrived at a summary of 'unmitigated wk and a horrendously poor effort'.

I'm tempted to ask what made it masturbatory and a poor effort,but I don't want to hear about your personal problems.
