And incidentally, who the **** voted to Juncker to speak for the whole of Europe? No one.

I have written LONG posts on this B.S. 'Brotherhood of Europe' crapola;from the French's LONG history of attacking legitimate British Imports, from Beef to Lamb to millions of gallons of wine, AND the poor lorry drivers hauling it, to the long entrenched, barely concealed, anti-British feelings of MOST of the EU Member States political leaders.

Your BRILLIANT post says it ALL.
