I'm talking after the UK was in the EU but after that first waffley paragraph of bollocks I think I'll stop talking to you now.
What about "The EU forbids direct state aid" was waffley bollocks? Why didn't the UK have Berlaymont nuke Germany's practice from orbit?
Or are we at a cultural impasse, here, I know that at least Americans often don't understand the practice of what we call, over here, when speaking English, taking the piss.
You think a yank would write "waffley bollocks"? You truly are lost.
It is impossible for that to have been sarcasm, of course, as I am German and therefore do not partake in such frivolities. It all makes perfect sense now. Toodeloo.
