"xenophobic"? Is that really the word you're going to use here? Bit ridiculous.


Is it not accurate? Portraying the democratically elected EU as 'undemocratic' because it is in contrast to a national government suggest to me that the source of the misrepresentation is due to them not being English (in this case).

That, and a very long track record of such sentiments being aired by those who are more transparently xenophobic. I don't see how it is ridiculous.


The EFF has a "very long track record" of being xenophobic?

Well, now I've heard it all.


Unfortunately what you're hearing appears to be in your head. I didn't say that, nor do I think it is true. Please discuss in good faith.


That's not what the parent post says; reread it.
