They moved it next to a protest. The LuxembougLoon had an agenda.

So it was arranged then? Luxembourg is a great country my racist friend, with one of the highest standards of living in the world. It also lacks the privileged class with its ignorant serfs doing its fobbing.

Where does this assertion I am racist come from?

It was quite obvious a set up, if you go on various news outlets you can hear the noise ,it was deafening. It would have been impossible to conduct a press conference under those circumstances. Even the bbc agreed with that. Johnson asked to move the meeting indoors, was refused so had no other option but to walk away from the mob. Still it gave the Luxembourg politician his spot in the limelight. Never heard of him before ,probably never hear from him again. Whatever anyone thinks of Johnson as prime minister of this country ,he deserved treating with respect. No visiting politician coming to this country would be treated in such a shabby fashion. Still it’s no surprise at the resentment from Luxembourg they are the richest country in Europe, thanks to EU money. Large sections of the press are crowing over Johnson’s humiliation, I think the vast majority of the British public might have a different view.

So why would Luxembourg resent UK commiting suicide? You don't think they are rich also because they are at the heart of the EU trading with the biggest trading block in the world, part of Benelux, & have hugely diversified from their original coal & steel industrial base? Half of Luxembourg residents are not Luxembourgers; they don't have the nasty racist, xenophobia of our cold, wet island; they all speak several languages. Beautiful place.

As usual when ever you see a post not to your liking ,you resort to your usual outpouring of vitriol. I don’t doubt for one moment Johnson is a liar. Most politicians are especially Corbyn, my point was he was treated disrespectfully. I would have expressed the same opinion if Corbyn had suffered the same fate. You obviously have a hatred of this country, having lived in various countries around the world I may have a different aspect to you. If I felt as bitter as you I would be out of the country pretty damn quick. Suggest west coast of Ireland, New Zealand, Canada, Panama.

The discussion is surely about Luxembourg treatment of Boris and how this relates to Brexit ??
