The Wall

[-Talbot-]

Good idea or a disgrace to humanity?

[-Talbot-]

EU tells Hungary to take down their barrier yet gives Turkey money that is used to build a barrier.

Is the EU for or against Walls?

[jno]

why on earth would the EU be for or against walls?

So very Manichaean

The EU believes in open orders beween member staes. Hungary is land locked surrounded b other EU counries, so i should not have a barrier.
The EU should protect its external border. But they have coped out. Instead of doing that, they have given Turkey (a fairly oppressive regime), a ton of money to do the job for them.

And the stupidity continues

Hungary could have opted out of the Schengen Area. It didn’t. It signed up to open borders and then put up a barrier. More stupidity.

[Old_Geezer]

I don't know about inviting stupid answers; as far as I can see you used a vague title to hide your meaning, presumably hoping all would comment on one famous potential wall so you can then say you were on about some other one: and rightly got humorous answers instead.

[-Talbot-]

Tell me what countries border Hungary Gromit and then I can check if Hungary is land locked by other EU countries.

[-Talbot-]

The vague title was to show that there's only one wall in the world as far the msm is concerned and everyone thinking 'wall=Trump' proves it.


Anyway we're happy with walls except for Trump's it seems

///Anyway we're happy with walls except for Trump's it seems///

Not many were happy with the one in Germany. People seem to like the one in China.
I like the wall at the back of my house it separates my garden from the railway I wouldn’t want one at the front of my house as it would make it difficult for my self and guests to get to my house.

Some walls are ok some aren’t

// One wall interesting enough to get mentioned often the other....meh.
Odd...no?//

oh please dont lapse into baby-talk if you are making a serious point.
and I agree, I am implying that 3T uses baby talk the whole time and never makes a serious point.

odd-no? odd no what ? odd no wall dare n not dare meh - foo!

One wall is mentioned often and one is not.
we know the mexican wall ( the big beautiful one ) is not a wall because Trump has said so. and it cant be a good wall, as it seems that people can get over it and under it.

"Hungary could have opted out of the Schengen Area."

No it could not. Hungary joined the EU in 2004 and the ten nations that joined at that time were obliged to either adopt Schengen immediately (if they met the conditions) or work towards adoption which they are legally obliged to do. There are four nations in that position - Bulgaria, Croatia, Cyprus and Romania. Only the UK and Ireland have secured permanent opt-outs from Schengen (as permanent as any such ting in the EU is, that is). All new members of the EU must become Schengen members.

Hungary obviously did not heed the warning when Schengen was set up that it not only affords free movement to those entitled to be there, but also to those not so entitled.

So when did Serbian and the Ukraine leave the EU?

We should be over there asking how they did it with such ease.
