Yeah? And? So what? Stop doing this. Make an argument and, if necessary, support it with a link, explaining how the link supports your argument.Crashy_Time wrote: »
This is a random link to a paywalled article. You do this a lot. It's a rubbish form of argumentation.0 -
I bewildered why Crashy does not get banned he constantly trolls and pulls threads off topic about stuff that should be in the Debate House price and Economy board.0

German industry has straight-up said that protecting the EU is the priority, over trade with the UK.

If you've got a link to a credible source that refutes this, then fair play. Otherwise, you've got your own personal opinion, but you don't get to have your own personal facts.

For the avoidance of doubt, here's what you said earlier:EZ voters are going to vote for the leaders that get them the deals with the UK that protect their jobs
And your article doesn't support that, not even slightly. Kempf is simply observing, uncontroversially, that no-deal would be a giant dung sandwich, not that Germans are falling over themselves to vote for people who have "helping out the UK" as their platform.
He also says that it's the UK's problem to solve.Kempf said he only saw further uncertainty: "I appeal to the lawmakers in the British Parliament to be conscious of their responsibility," he said. "The ball is in London's court ... New negotiations are not the answer."0
