It is demonstrably true that the EU use monetary threats to increase compliance to their orthodoxy from smaller countries (e.g. Greece)
Eventually the short-term economic costs of leaving (especially for Euro countries) become great enough that referendums on leaving become almost pointless.
Thankfully the U.K. escaped the “slippery slope to colonisation” before it was too late.
It’s also demonstrably true that the slab-featured thug is Putin’s organ grinder’s monkey. The EU is too tolerant. They should ages ago have found a way to kick out this lout and his regressive country.
Maybe the EU should kick out Germany too – for providing NordStream weapons to Putin.

It beggars belief that Hungary, and the same applies to Ireland and the UK, that politicians simply cannot see that the eternal economic and financial rainbow lies in leaving the EU and becoming a Swiss cum Liechtenstinian tax haven. Massive investment, savings inflow, companies flocking to domicile, individuals queuing up to become citizens, and exponential new multi currency revenues into HM Treasury in tsunami form….
Mmm, maybe worth considering what you wish for. You are arguing for an economic system that favours making money with money over earning from work. A tax and regulation system in favour of investing rather than earning from work is the current western mainstream political and tax preference. This seems a logic way of assuring endless growth but does it provide valuable and valued working lives for the population as a whole, or does it achieve this mainly for the clever few…..

Ah the EU and Orban – a delicious schadenfreudic(?) entertainment.
How they deserve each other.

Didn’t the ECB close one of Cyprus’s main banks in order to force Cyprus to accept the draconian terms of their bailout deal?
Yes – They effectively took control of the whole of the Cyprus banking system

Absolutely agree, and this comes from someone who doesn’t generally support the EU.
