Comment on Germany to reach out to France and UK over sharing of nuclear weapons
NigelFrobisher@aussie.zone 3 weeks agoThey shouldn’t. The “No” campaign ran flat-out lies about what Britain would be able to get out of negotiations, claiming we “hold all the cards”. We did not.

Well clearly we did hold cards. The very post you replied to has pointed out exactly the cards we held, and still hold.
But his isn’t a brexit argument, that is a long-resolved issue. T
his is about the UK’s relationship with the EU. (And notice I say EU, not Europe. I read media reports conflating the EU with Europe every week. Even this week talking of EU countries creating a ‘European Army’: well if they are going to exclude the UK from Europe so be it, why wouldn’t we maintain our special relationship with the US, and lean towards Russia, while maintaining our friendly relationship with China?
You reap what you sow.
Now if the EU wants the protection of our nuclear weapons they demonstrate how the have significantly changed their attitude towards the UK on an ongoing basis and the EU’s role in EUrope, and they pay economically.
