You mean don't judge London in regards to friendliness and hospitality. Rather go by the xenophobic sentiment and hatred for everything foreign in Sunderland and Britain's beautiful countryside. I can only imagine what would happen if you had a few Syrians walking around the villages in the same way as they walk around in German villages.
So words you don't like justify violence towards law abiding, tax paying European residents in the UK? Nice welcoming place you got there.
Take a look at Nigel's stupid smirk when he was exposed for the cheat he really is Totally owned I would say...
The thing is, I think you've missed the big picture here fella. I tried to steer you in the right direction earlier on in this thread because it's an easy mistake to make to get distracted by isolated incidents or a few manipulative idiots. The UK just wants to leave the EU members club, not Europe! I understand the EU wants to screw the UK now to make an example, and threaten others from leaving or holding future referendums, but if they make it too petty and personal then both sides long terms interests will be harmed. It was Juncker who said, "it is not an amicable divorce". He did not need to say that. Farage is not blameless of course with that stupid poster and gloating, but Juncker is just awful. On his watch, the EU's second largest economy left. It didn't need to happen, there are many who voted like me who were ok with the EU before it took the direction it did over the last decade. We could have been swayed to vote to remain, but saw the reaction of Brussels and decided it's no longer in the UK's best long term interests to be part of it.
Then fucking leave mate, but stop bickering like a milf. Get done with it and go on with your life. Don't hold everyone hostage with your self-centered and selfish mindset. Your country is losing goodwill by each day it continues to play this sharade. And what's the difference between Europe and Europe Member club? Have you lost it? Switzerland is not part of Europe other than purely in the geographic sense and the UK just decided it wants to become like Switzerland. Everyone respects that but then get your ass moving pal and don't let the door hit you on the way out.
Why do you think you're being held hostage? If you can't handle the uncertainty, I'm not sure trading is a suitable profession for you. It could take us SEVERAL YEARS to trigger Article 50. If the EU wants a quicker exit they just need to enter into informal negotations. So the whole thing will drag on and on.
It won't you will see. The vast majority in the UK nor Europe want that. Only the few of your kind and Farage's kind who are frustrated they did not get what they wanted and now your kind behaves as if nobody should ever get it either.
Brexit costs to UK business becoming increasingly apparent: Car manufacturers, for one, are at risk as over 50% of cars are exported to single market. The Society of Motor Manufacturers argues that the UK's membership of the EU "helped attract billions of pounds in investment in recent years." There are also grave concerns in the financial districts of London. "Passporting" banking and other financial services (whereby any business headquartered in London can apply for a passport from UK regulators to do business in the entire European Economic Area) will likely end when the UK formerly exits the EU. French President Hollande also said yesterday that London will no longer be able to clear euro-denominated trades (adding that this would "serve an example for those who seek the end of Europe." The EU will also shift the European Banking Authority from London to either Paris of Frankfurt. Source: Action Economics Imho, Hollande's comment in the end is stupid but the fact remains that a lot of business will simply be forced to leave the UK. Obviously it cannot be that any European Banking Authority or euro denominated trades would be cleared in London. Good luck financial center London. And this is only the beginning: The pharmaceutical industry will follow, car industry, IT, research at universities will not qualify for any EU grants anymore,... In the end the UK does damage to itself by being indecisive and waiting to exit. Businesses around the world and in Europe cannot afford to wait for many months without a solid decision. Any of the business projects for which the UK right now competes will for sure be put on ice or completely cancelled. Will European business suffer as well? Yes of course it will. That has been my point all along, waiting and doing nothing will hurt everyone. But most likely will the damage done to the UK be relatively higher than the damage done to Europe.
