First of all you got the 'like' for the Lower Gwladys comment and nothing else! Lower Gwladys 4 Life!
I would still dispute that either the Common Market or the EU has played a major part in the prevention of war during its existence. The presence of troops in Germany was obviously the key component. We then have only the time from the fall of the Berlin Wall and the Fall of the USSR. I'm sorry but I still don't see any real MAJOR threat's the EU (or whatever) has helped to prevent during that time. If anything it's free movement law is the reason the terrorists responsible for the atrocities in France were able to evade capture for as long as they did.
If only the EU was the place you wish it was, a place were we
discusse laws, trade agreement and common rights ect. I'd be all of that, that's what we signed up for in the first place. But what we have is political union of member states, controlled by unelected bureaucrats that answer to nobody and we cannot remove. I'm sorry but I never wanted this and I won't vote for it.
