If a bank employee is caught stealing from the till or accepting back-handers, that person is in the wrong but it does not mean that the bank is corrupt. That person should be exposed and sanctioned. The bank will no doubt act swiftly to deal with that individual.
That this Greek MEP and her assistant have been so quickly identified and suspended actually reveals that the European Institutions take this matter very seriously, proving that they are NOT corrupt. It is an irrational exaggeration to brand all European institutions as corrupt due to the supposed actions of 3 or 4 individuals abusing the system, but a predictable reaction trying to make a cheap point.
I am probably the only person on here who has worked for the European institutions. A colleague in agriculture was found to be leaking advance information for profit about intervention prices to outside interested parties. He was sacked and sent to prison. He was a corrupt employee IN the Commission, not part of a corrupt organization.
As Offcomedun has said above, most people now realize that Brexit was a mistake but a very difficult one to reverse.

It's better known as the Anti Tax Avoidance Directive and will start to bring an end to the many UK overseas tax havens where the rich, famous and questionable keep their fortunes beyond the reach of UK and other EU tax authorities. And without the hardest of Brexits as favoured by the likes of Rees-Mogg, Moulton, Dacre, Dyson, Farage, BoJo etc etc the UK may well have to sign up to this new directive. And for those with something to hide or at least not disclose, it could be a major problemNorthernMonkey, Hulmebantam, Bigrod and 2 others like this. -
May has had a lot of criticism that she has not reached out to other parties to compromise but how can she?
Labour want to remain in the EU and be a rule taker so cannot compromise there
Lib Dems ( Who?) are pledged to remain in the EU so no compromise there either
SNP (windbags) want to solidly remain in the EU so no compromise there,
So all these people saying she needs compromise are in actual fact remainers wanting her to fail and have no brexit,Fools Gold, Daisy Mcniven, Idlebantam and 2 others like this. -

The European election results coming in and its looking like a disaster for the main parties. Brexit Party coming out as the big winner, i'm guessing the excuse will be that people didn't know what they were voting for and that we should have a second vote, you know, just to be sure that everyone knew what they were voting for . Looks like my vote counted again, just like it did nearly three years ago. Well done uncle Nigel .

We're heading for a General Election and Farage will give Boris his support. All the safe Tory seats will be won as normal and they won't worry too much about that. Their problem is the Labour strongholds. Unfortuntely a lot of these Labour strongholds, particularly up North and in Wales, voted leave. So these constituencies will be the ones targeted by Farage and his bigotry and hate.
You thick fckers will hand the country to rich men who want to sell off your NHS, your working rights, your taxes, your pensions, your everything. They don't care about you! They want your money.
You working class people championing Farage and Boris and their ilk ought to be ashamed.Stop hovering to collapse... Click to collapse... Hover to expand... Click to expand...Tolly856, Somerset Bantam, Offcomedun and 2 others like this. -

A young man had the living shit kicked out of him for being non-white, just 500 metres from where I live last month. An acquaintance of mine stepped in, the same happened to him and he spent time in hospital. This is documented in local press in Manchester. There are plenty of far-right extremists prepared to use violence if they can get away with it. Whether the murderer of Jo Cox had issues or not, he used the words Britain First so there was a degree of correlation with far right ideology. He chose an MP that he disagreed with to commit a terrible act.
The points being made last night is that the country is very divided and some of the language being used by the PM is chosen very carefully. It is chosen to heighten division for the purpose of his own political career. The vitriol on Twitter is clear evidence of this.
Female politicians routinely receive death and rape threats. They receive credible threats to their families. By dismissing as ‘humbug’ the requests, from a female politician, to tone down the language used was contemptible. Just a few words to acknowledge this situation would have shown him to be a compassionate and decent human being, albeit one whose politics I disagree with.Stop hovering to collapse...

Typical Corbyn wanting another public vote. How would he like it if he was elected PM, and 3 years later he still hadnt been handed the keys to number 10 Downing Street, with MP's demanding another vote because they didnt agree with the original votetrevor, Tony Wilkinson, Jayteebee and 2 others like this. -
