Is this the New Winston Churchill?

Empires are not economically and morally viable anymore, the UK did incredibly well in other sectors. This country flourished when it invested in R&D and finance, and the wealth generated by this was the engine that carried everybody else along.
This has changed lately and the result is a stalemate which can be even more dangerous if not addressed on time.

I believe the UK should stay well out of the Eurozone, but should really work better when it comes to economic interactions. The stupid naysaying attitude of this government and clowns like Farage aren't doing us a great deal of good

The problem of modern western economys is that they let go production in other countries and focus more on service. But that's the wrong way in my opinion, because a qualified worker in production earns more than some service worker. Also without production no service. Aslo without agriculture, no food on your table.

I don't call for "Protect your industry by taxes", just give them a frame in which they are able to compete with others. It would be also helpfull to change the productionlines to metric system. That would open a bigger market for selling.

But asking a british to change from inch to metric is like insulting them...

aaawww come on man, we don't live in a perfect country, but it's not about anti-British, when people make critics to things here they're questioning the principles, not the nationality of a policy. Especially in a country with such a broad variety of ethnies and social classes, the concept of "anti-British" is terribly anachronistic.

Aye, its "En Vogue" these days isn't it, strike a pose theres nothing to it.

Tsk Tsk, those EVIL nasty Brits....Who in fact HEROICALLY SACRIFICED EVERYTHING so that the World could be free. Yes, everything...Empire and all. Bankrupt, (not that money matters, we were making a Point)

If any one wants to understand what we are are all about, then listen to this beautiful rendition of the Poem "Ulysses" by Alfred Lord Tennyson.

Obstinate, Defiant, Bullish and English by the Grace of God.

I am become a Name.

A name of which I am Eternally Proud.

Get over it.

*Hehehe*

Gaffer, I thank thee.

Why so much hate? Why are you persecuting us, Alessandro? (LOL!)

OMFG, its.....an Italian. He's a Nazi one day, yet he changes his mind, mid way? (Circa WWII) At least have the Courage of your Convictions and make yer mind up, ffs.

Stern is a Lone Wulf. He wears Lufftwaffle watches, pretending to be a Lufftlwaffle Teuton Knight, in his Lufftwaffle fantasy world.

Long may it continue. Long may we Lulz.

[Sternjaeger II]

you and your clique have some serious self-acceptance issues I'm afraid.

What can I say? I'm sorry if I'm better than you (as you probably know, since you love stalking me), but can I be blamed for it?

Get over yourself buddy, and stop picking any occasion to make personal attacks (which are forbidden by the forum rules, remember?), you and your friends are starting to turn from sad to creepy

P.S.
What is your post supposed to mean exactly anyway?!

this is a bit generalised. The main reason to move services and productions abroad is "to cut costs" they say, what they don't seem to keen on cutting it's their profit though.
Government allowed for this for too long, which surely helped other countries standing up economically (and slowly catching up with us), but on the flipside it allowed only a certain layer of society to get wealthier, sacrificing the well being of many others.
Some stuff we can't do without importing (such as food and veg), but one thing we could surely cut on is the insanity of wanting to have ALL the products all the way through the year, completely discarding the concept of seasonal produce in favour of "I want my strawberries in January and that's it!". I've seen some jewellery shop prices for some veg at our local Morrisons lately, and frankly I wonder what the hell are they actually thinking...

It's not a matter of metric or imperial, things here have changed according to what the Government wants (petrol used to be sold in gallons in the UK, now it's litres), it's a matter of assessing an economic policy that really keeps into account all social layers and provides people with a solid job opportunity.

I didn't ask that they have to give up completely on the inch system.
Gas and waterlines in germany are still in inches.
What I mean is that it would open more opportunities.
