Saying that the EU is run by "corporations" is a tad.... funny.
Corporations normally dont want more competition, which the EU has forced on markets across its member states.
Now Corporation influence there is.. just look at big pharma ability to block competition... no one denies that there is not influence. But how big an influence is there?
Car emissions and fuel efficiency. Now if the EU was run by corporations like the US is, then these rules would almost never change (like the US). And yet the EU has like clock work wanted less emissions and better fuel efficiency on cars and the German car industry especially has been lobbying against it.. and failing. So how can the "Corporations" control the EU when this is allowed to happen?
But the fact is, that a lot of those that fund the leave campaign are in fact.. very very wealthy billionaire owners of... corporations. So if the EU is run by corporations, then why do these corporations want out? Or maybe it is the other way around.. with the UK out of Europe, the British billionaires will much easier be able to influence the Tory party to do their bidding, because no outside force can meddle in their affairs... ever thought of that?
Ironically, the ones pushing for worker rights and making sure that corporations dont get too big is... the EU. For example, banks. The EU commission and ECB have suggest to create a "bail-out fund" to pay for any bank cracks.. who resisted it? The big banks, and especially the City of London. Why was this "bail-out fund" suggested.. to protect the tax payer from greedy bankers screwing up.
So we are back to the OP comments... are you absolutely sure about this?

Just wanted to give you a heads up; this guy is a total whackjob. There's no real point in trying to reason with him.
Oh I know he is, but does not mean that a fair assessment of what he is saying is not in order? he will of course (as he has) respond with the usual anti-Europe nationalistic far right drivel..
and it certainly is no democratic organ!
He's not really a nationalist either. He thinks Obama and Bush are Satanists and cluster bomb kids for fun.
Also, he thinks gravity doesn't exist and the moon was artificially created by reptile people.
Oh so he is a Donald Trump supporter?![]()

If the EU were run by corporations things would be better. But it is run by politicians and therein is the problem.
weel you are wrong about the moon created by reptile people. I never wrote that!
Now, stay on topic, this is becoming very cheap.

You posted a YouTube clip from David Icke.
As all your threads are pretty much interchangeable--- their all full of crap you got off YouTube---.....

Once you quote David Ike, you lose all credibility.
well, how the hell do you know it is all crap??? Oh that is right! You don't.

Nope. We know It's all bull****. David Ike along with the rest of the conspiracy loons have 0.0% evidence to support their outlandish claims.
well how do you know that?
