That's telling in itself.
The conversation is about the UK's Human Rights abuse and the EU investigation, Greece is a separate issue that has little to nothing to do with it and mentioning doesn't change the facts of the UK case, it's just an attempt to muddy a debate that you can't win.
You can talk about Greece until you are blue in the face but it won't change the facts about the EU investigation into the UK's human rights abuse.
I've only spoken about the EU investigation into the UK, I'm not saying that the EU is perfect (I don't speak in absolutes) only that your argument doesn't change the facts which is true. Your unsubtle attempt to paint me as a hypocrite in your last sentence has fell on it's arse because you've misunderstood what I've been saying.

For the record, That very last sentence of my post you quoted was not about you but about the EU if that's what you mean by 'attempting to paint you as a hypocrite'. It was not aimed at you.
Other than Farage what other leavers have jumped ship - as I am unaware of who you mean?
Personally I don't agree that the Greece issue is irrelevant. It may not have been directly related to your points but was relevant to the general discussion as it pointed out the hypocrisy of the EU.
