Just for Donald Tusks information that SPECIAL PLACE IN HELL is in the battle fields of  all over Europe where millions from all over the world lay down their lives defending European freedom from tyrants and despots and lunatics.    RING ANY BELLS DONALD TUSK?

I wonder if it will affect Tusk's chances of being re-elected?.
Oh hang on I forgot, he's un-elected isn't he

mtread  I never mentioned WW2 you were just making your usual assumptions. I said battle fields and soldiers from all over the world. Including European soldiers fighting for their freedom from tyranny.  Perhaps you had conveniently forgot the Napoleonic wars of the late 1700s and early 1800s the first world war and  WW2 and probably a few more skirmishes  I have forgotten.

Every time I hear Tusk mentioned I keep thinking of the Fleetwood mac album/song that was the strange, somewhat disappointing follow-up to Rumours :guitar :lol

The European Council elects its own president. This requires a qualified majority. The president holds the post for a 2.5 year term, renewable once.

Yes, I am sure it will Steve.  Tusk is Polish.  At the end of WW2 Poland was left to rot by the allies.  It was to be some decades before Poland regained it's freedom.

Your so right VNA Poland was another European country held against its will by  a despot  same as a lot of other countries on the eastern side of Europe.

Then I don't understand the point and what comparison you are making?
What about all the English despots, and soldiers from all over the world, including within the UK, fighting their tyranny?

Me neither. For all their faults the EU don't bear comparison with that lot :rolleyes

What is war good for?  Absolutely fuck all.
Which is another of the great things about the European Union.  Bringing Europe together in economic and social union makes another war in what was our war-torn continent almost impossible.

Have you seen the on-going spat with France and Italy over the last few weeks, not saying they will break out in war but there certainly does not seem to be much "union" going on between them. And with the yellow vests France seems at war with its self. That lovely rosy skipping hand in hand through the daisies EU project is not going so well. Most of it is not reported through the BBC or Sky. The yellow vests have been kicking off every weekend and now a rival red scarves movement has been set up to oppose them

....and Macron's got the cheek to criticize the UK! :rolleyes
