Sorry chaps, would you mind awfully allowing us to oversee a significant chunk of your legal system to get me out of a bit of a domestic jam? No, there's not really anything in it for you.

Maybe it helps you understand why a lot of us Brits might not be too keen on having European courts sticking their nose into our business. That was my point.rjsterry said:

I know what point you were trying to make. It's a false comparison. We voluntarily signed up to being EU members with pretty massive economic benefits. The EU didn't ask us to join to help them out with a bit of domestic politics.Stevo_666 said:

So, wait, Brexit is good because the EU can no longer interfere with us interfering with the national laws of other countries?

No it isn't. We applied for membership - some unification of legal systems was a requirement of membership from the off. If we hadn't been members and the EU had then insisted on sending officials to Britain, you would have a point.Stevo_666 said:

I guess if the British Museum gave back every foreign artefact, they wouldn't have much left? Doesn't get me worked up much either way really but I can see how the Greek people could rightly feel that they have been robbed. The poll result I saw suggested that 2/3 of brits think they should be returned.
I think it's a complete non-issue for most people - I lived/worked in London for 20 years and I've never seen them. If you live in Glasgow, it'd probably be cheaper/easier to go and see them in Athens.0 -
The old argument was they'd be safest there, and if it wasn't for a British person wearing a flannel suit, they'd be lost entirely.
That always struck me as essentially saying they'd have been stolen had we not stolen them.0 -
