So a German, living in the UK, who seems not to like us very much is claiming that if we vote to leave the EU, he will pack his bags and go.
…and sometimes I’ll even try to taste ghastly food…
Ah, yes, that old canard. Bollocks on stilts from someone who has clearly not, actually, tried any English cuisine. Still, why let the actualité get in the way of a nice little cliché, eh?
I think most people actually know all of this deep down, and it would be an enormous shame if a whole country betrayed its European values because of a cockfight between two spoiled boys from the gentlemen’s club.
Ah, yes, this is pretty much the arse-dribble Polly Toynbee was peddling a day or so back. The deep dislike of the EU is rather more than two Etonions having a dispute and to try and make out that it is that, is profoundly disingenuous.
That is why I have decided to leave the UK if Britain should vote no. I will not go through the humiliation of getting a visa, and tackling even more border controls because David Cameron went that bit too far to secure his power.
Fine. Fuck off and don’t come back. Don’t let the door hit your arse on the way out.
I mean, seriously, does this pompous wanker think that his decision not to stay if we vote for Brexit will influence me, or anyone else who despises the oligarchy in Brussels? Seriously?
If this is the kind of dire argument being put forward by the remain camp at the start of the campaign, just how awful will it be by mid-June?
I dunno why you read that rag Longrider, I really don’t. I cannot understand the mindset not only of its brainwashed columnists, but its the comments section that has me wondering if they’re on the same planet as everybody else.
Know thine enemy 😉
Indeed:- ‘Keep your friends close, but your enemies even closer”.
“Fuck off and don’t come back. Don’t let the door hit your arse on the way out.”
Couldn’t have put it better myself!
Is it possible that the EU is using astro-turfers in selected blogs to put over their message?
Agreed – that’s the spirit!
(He doesn’t even know what he’s talking about, separate topic).
I think the comment on the article itself suspecting that it was actually some guardian hack is correct.
All I know is that I will be voting no (but I will be interested to see what the actual wording is) and it will take nothing short of an asteroid to stop me.
In public I keep quiet and on the surface am apathetic and indifferent. I can be easily pigeonholed into any one of the “scared and/or stupid” groups who will vote in. But when I read vile, spite and hate filled arrogance like this, I think “better make that two asteroids”.
I wonder how many others are the same?
Why wait? Leave now or alternatively shut the fuck up…!
This has got to be one of the best adverts for the Leave campaign that I’ve heard! Now all they need to do is to find a few Eastern Europeans who will put out a similarly-worded rant or two about how they’ll rush back to their homelands if the vote points to the exit door and the Leave vote will be in the bag! In fact, if this wasn’t in the Guardian I’d actually suspect that it was a “plant” by the Leave campaign, not the Remain one!
A similar comment piece in the Torygraph although I think it’s a deliberate wind-up – it really has to be!

Expect more of the same…….
Maybe the clue’s in the name – ‘Oliver Imhof’
Never mind the Germans, what about our own Fifth Columnists?

I’m a little bit confused by the terminology of voting yes or no. Voting In or out I get, but what does yes mean? Yes to the EU or yes to leaving? No to the EU or no to leaving? I’m voting Out, just so you know.
Has that fucking cocktrumpet actually tried to find a restaurant serving decent food anywhere in Germany?
I’ve spent a lot of time over there in the last few years and the food in restaurants is, almost without exception, utter fucking garbage.
