I completely agree with you. If you were to believe the ToryBut then most Americans think that Margaret Thatcher was the mutts nuts.
.
I wish she'd just bugger off. William Hague thinks she's the mutts nuts and
the Tories are now virtually fascists with their "Anti-European" stance
recently.
party, the other European countries are to blame for
everything from the trains running late to the cold weather.
Even regular readers of The Sun must be finding it a bit
hard to swallow. It's fascism, verging on racism.
For the non-UK residents on the newsgroup, here's a brief
rundown on the 3 major parties in the UK (completely
non-stereotypical and not simplified at all!!!):
Tories: Run by William Hague (amoeba) & Thatcher (senile).
Stance: Rule Britannia! Declare war on Europe a.s.a.p.
Liberals: Run by Charlie "Unknown" Kennedy.
Stance: Nobody knows, or really cares, because they're never
going to be elected. Stuck in the middle.
Labour: Run by the spin-doctors.
Stance: Relatively pro-European. Best of a bad bunch. Tony
Blair talks a good game, if nothing else.
Unfortunately, there seems to be a bit of a fascist trend
throughout Europe at the moment, which is worrying. For
example, in Austria, I think that an ultra-right party is
really popular at the moment. The "francophones" will no
doubt know all about Jean-Marie Le Pen and his "Front
National" in France. (Pour les français: "BNP" en anglais
est le sigle pour l'équivalent du FN!!! Mes amis anglais
étaient un peu surpris quand je leur a dit que j'avais un
compte chez la BNP...!)
It certainly doesn't bode well for a united Europe. I for
one wouldn't mind seeing a "United States of Europe"
eventually, with a president being elected from a different
country each new term. Anyone else think this is a good
idea?! <g>
