    Is starting the new European colonization. Colonies of exploitation of South America will pay a high price. We South Americans will be humiliated, enslaved, exploited and reviled if we allow this disastrous approach.

    We'll buy your combs and mirrors as if it were gold.

    yes, indeed....because international trade with Europe has been disasterous for China, South Korea, Singapore, Hong Kong, Malaysia, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, India, Vietnam.....whilst those refusing to trade Iran, North Korea, Cuba...etc have prospered.

    what a thick fuckwit you are brasileiro

    Do you notice how fluent in English, our dear Brassiero is, when he has a particular message to get out ?

    At other times it's, “ Me Brazillo, you Yankee Ingles imperialist invader steal gold... ” etc.

    Brazil is one of the BRICs while Argentina is one of the *HITS.

    “”“”We South Americans will be humiliated, enslaved, exploited and reviled if we allow this disastrous approach.“”“”

    maybe they'll have the sense to kick out the Spanish and Portuguese illegal squatters from their lands finally after hundreds of years of being colonized.

    “so I am confronting that historic weakness head-on,”

    No you aren't you are shamelessly plagiarizing UKIP policies and then claiming them as your own.

    So far from ”confronting that historic weakness” you are, yet again trying to stand on the shoulders of giants. Your government is worthless, your prime minister has absolutely no back bone what so ever and you are a rubbish chancellor.

    I can't wait for the European elections this May and I can't for the general elections next year 'cos I want all those idiots out of number 10..... including that little b*tch Nick Clegg.

    @tooold
    You are not really implying that UKIP are the giants on whose sholders Osborne is standing, are you?

    Whoever it is that pushes for more trade should be applauded, regardless of whose idea it was in the first place.

    He is not Brazilian, just a troll pretending to be one.

    His grammar mistakes in English are not typical of a Brazilian or portuguese-speaking guy.

    Sorry, I was merely raging that this is evidence ( if more were needed ) that the government has run out of it's own ideas. They have done nothing while in power but break the promises they made while in opersition.

    They might as well be leaderless for all the u-turns and aimless indesisions that “Dave” has inflicted on them, as Nigel Farage has once descibed him “David Cameron, a man who stands for absolutely nothing at all”

    I will not, of course, have to remind you that David Camer-moron proclaimed the conservative party as the “Guardians of the armed forces”

    Nice one Dave.......you clown

    My posting was made tongue in cheek. I can't see any of our “leaders” worth a damn....nor any of their parties.

    I don't like the current UK government too much myself but we do need to export more. That I do support.
