Marine Le Pen calls for return to ECU-style currency after ‘Frexit’

You are missing the point. You said "If your products is good, people will buy it regardless how expensive it is." which is an incorrect assertion. I could care less about what anyone charges for their product or what they feel it is worth

Le Pen Says Trump’s Ford Victory Is Proof Protectionism Works

Le Pen should look at her own country and ask, does protectionism work? France's agriculture industry has only barely survived, only due to protectionism. In the real world it would have been already pronounced dead

Le Pen Says Trump’s Ford Victory Is Proof Protectionism Works

Seriously? If it hadn't been for Blair policy on immigration and his blind acceptance of the Lisbon Treaty, no one would have heard of Brexit never mind thought of it. You should research the Lisbon Treaty and you might begin to understand where all ...

A Hard Brexit Looms Large With Resignation of U.K. Envoy to EU

I agree that the EU should be shrunk to the role of a trade agreement only, but Junker believes the "We won't exist as single nations without the EU". I would argue that single nations will cease to exist if the EU remains

Marine Le Pen calls for return to ECU-style currency after ‘Frexit’

I get the impression that he jumped before he was pushed. The UK needs a "can do attitude" and not a "can't do attitude". It doesn't need a diplomat, it needs a hard nosed negotiator who believes in Brexit and is prepared stand up to the EU bullies. ...

Please explain how the Irish steal your taxes? I do notice that you have not comments on the points raised in the video. I suspect that you are unable to do so

Marine Le Pen calls for return to ECU-style currency after ‘Frexit’

I think it is both. I have a mental picture of barkie and the mule, and it is not pleasant This is a video surrounding the Irish vote on the Lisbon Treaty. I know it dates back to 2012 but oh so very true video and Tony Blair signed us up to this ...
