UK to close borders, evacuate expats if euro collapses
Loading the player ...
As Eurozone nations sink ever deeper into crisis, the UK Treasury is working on a contingency plan for the single currency's collapse. It includes capital control measures that, under EU rules, require agreement from most of the Union members. Britain is also prepared to close its borders and evacuate expats and holidaymakers from the effected countries. Robert Oulds, president of the Bruge Groups of campaigners against excess unification in Europe says many countries will benefit if euro collapses.

UK and U.S. should only let white people immigrate from now on.
Yep, that's a racist statement, but a problem solving one.

@niltomega
And only borrow money from white people's economies, right?
Major holders of US debt in Billions:
China: $1,148.30
Japan: $956.80
UK: $421.60
Oil Exporters: $229.90
Brazil: $206.20
Do you get my drift?

@niltomega Most of the people in Europe are white. What ever problem you think will be solved its not the one under discussion here.

IMO
1- If we can freely move funds around the world why not allow the movement of the people creating those funds in the first place ie: middle class
2- The elite including the ruling class don't give a fuck about skin color; it's just a distraction they use for the small brains. If they did they wouldn't have closed their local manufacturing sector to move to Asia.
3- In two words: Birth rate.
The populations of Europe, Japan and Korea are aging and dying out. Someone has to pa More..

Where does RT get its experts? He looks like a serial killer. I question his credentials too.

The solution is simple. Drive up the Chinese minimum wage.

Russian TV anchor is trying hard to make Britain look foolish. Russia would love it if Europe collapsed because the "Russian Economic Union" FAIL miserably!
