First speech after victory: "important to listen to Le Pen voters" First act as president: appoint a right wing PM Speeches and/or acts reaching out to left wing voters: A "centrist", everyone.

I don't know if an online ticket is tough for you but I doubt you'll have to print it, having it on your phone should be good enough.

You remember right: if you are an EU citizen under the age of 25, the entry to the Louvre Museum is free (just like all public museums in the EU I think?). But nowadays they might be lines anyway due to the security controls.

Sounds too good to be true. And even if those two wanted the right kind of changes, how do you convince the rest to go along with it? At least the UK will be out soon, they would have blocked anything good.

CottonWolf posted:How many EU states would require referendums for that? Just Ireland? If it's an treaty change just Ireland, but it requires unanimity in the council, so good luck with that. It's important to put Merkel's comment in context: 1) She is in campaigning mode - categorically refusing any treaty change would look very anti-European, a big no no 2) Unanimity would be required 3) She wants Macron to make France great again - which means giving him some positive headlines ahead of parliamentary elections in June makes a lot of sense So yeah, don't expect anything

Fiction posted:Not sure why you'd be happy about this. Don't you want the EU to not collapse disastrously? Which is why I oppose a transfer union, because at the moment the only countries that might want to leave can't do so because it would be economical suicide. If, on the other hand, the northern countries, like the Netherlands, would want to leave because they don't want to give money to the South, that would actually kill the EU. People should keep in mind that Brexit happened because a comparatively rich country felt that it got taken advantage of, while the EU, even at the height of Varoufakis-mania, 70% wanted to stay in the EU.

We should respect the will of the population, even in their most chauvinistic tendencies, Deus Vult. ed: but it's amazing how you are shamelessly projecting a vision of an european union where the powerless states are obliged to NOT listen to their popular will just because they are powerless at the cost of listening to Dutch, or whoever surrogate of the master peoples you concocted, because they do have power/influence. Do you even see yourself as anything other than a pure social darwinist/malthusianist? Fados fucked around with this message at 19:54 on May 15, 2017 |

First, the European Court of Justice has to stop a german law for data storing starting 1 of July. 28 years ago people called things like that stasi The EU Court is the last hope to stop this bullshit. If not I' m sure other EU members will/must/forced to follow.

They are not powerless, but, as the saying goes, you don't bite the hand that feeds you. They could, theoretically, leave the EU, but the consequences would be so dire that even the most incompetent fool would not dare to do it. Just look at Greece. We were told that Golden Dawn would take over the government if SYRIZA failed. Well, unless the polling in Greece is off by more than 20% SYRIZA failed but it's ND that's leading, with Golden Dawn stagnating at 8%-

They could, theoretically, leave the EU, but the consequences would be so dire that even the most incompetent fool would not dare to do it. I guess you won't be convinced until we have literal neo-nazi parties in power. Proceed as planned, full speed ahead. I think you know what our main contention is: you think the problems of the southerners are fundamentally of their own making, while me and maybe other leftists would say it's fault of the european rules (or lack thereof). Either way it's clear that what rulesdo exists are applied haphazardly and with the constraints of realpolitik which you so adhere to making them at best ineficient and in my view a complete failure that's bound to lead to EU disintegration. What I can get gather from this is that you are in favor of the current status quo, not because you are against any type of violent enforcing of the existing rules but because you aren't really even that bothered with the potential 'Northern Germanic Union' that would be the result of a EU disintegration. In fact it's something you probably think would work a lot better.

My favourite piece of news today is that the new prime minister might prefer women with big (but not so big that they'd sag) breasts and who don't act like men be doing things like having one-night stands. That book has two authors so it's not clear who wrote what, but nonetheless. It's not everyday you have a certified beauf in Matignon.

punk rebel ecks posted:Why is it so difficult for the German left to get a foothold? It's split into 3 parties, plus all the reasons the center-left is weak everywhere in the first world right now, decline of unions, etc etc. Plus the CDU is a pragmatic ruling party that to a large extent is willing to just occupy the center-left if the SPD moves further to the left. Similar to Japan in a lot of ways actually, except people don't jump to racist/orientalist "well that's how Asian peoples' brains work" to explain it
