Agreed with your last comment DV, but the united Germany of today is a different country to what it was pre 1939. Yes they have political unrest, and Merkel is clinging on to power like a geriatric limpet, but their economy is still reasonably robust despite recent horrors discovered in their automobile industry. I'm happy that she stood up for her own Country, I only wish our "negotiators" and representatives sent to Brussels did the same for the UK in the past 33 months. Apart from Farage and Hannan, when have we heard similar criticism of the Brussels Commissioners from our MEP's?
