Tusk has a point. 16:19 - Oct 4 with 9601 views | MattinLondon | I don’t think anyone had died has a result of the EU trying to impose itself upon a country who wants to leave. I wonder how many people have died from resisting being part of the British Empire | | | | |

You might want to look into the origins of the Rwandan genocide and how the Hutu and Tutsi were selected is quite horrific and paved the way for a modern tragedy. | | | |
Tusk has a point. on 16:45 - Oct 4 with 5679 views | factual_blue | This single famine, one of at least eight to affect India during British rule, cost two million or more lives. The 1943 famine was the direct consequence of Imperial policy; Churchill's comment was a “the Hindus were a foul race, protected by their mere pullulation [propensity to breed] from the doom that is their due.” In the earalier famines the Empire was culpable, at best doing nothing to relieve suffering, at worst consciously pursuing policies that made famine more likely. In some two hundred years of British rule, over fifty million Indians died. | |

How will turning the European powers from being parters back in to competitors help prevent such tragedies ever happening again? The peace in Central Europe that we have enjoyed for generations would’ve seemed unthinkable 70 years ago. I find it baffling that people seem to be celebrating the potential breakdown of this situation. | |

It’s a false peace. When the nationalities realise that their countries have been abolished, you won’t want to be Donald Tusk | |

I am half Irish, so still half EU, so the vote or result makes no odds to me. Just makes me laugh with all this scare mongering and stories about how everything is going to go wrong. Things are not perfect in the EU either | |

Ridiculous comment. And makes light of the millions of innocent people killed in cold blood by the Nazi's. Absolutely no comparison to the EU. Quite the opposite - this modern, united Germany is the one that took in well over it's fair share of refugees during the migrant crisis. | |
