So you have have been in the EU for just 2 years and you think you have influence? You will get a shock just like those before (Spain etc).
The situation now is much different - we are in a Europe of 25, not an Europe of 10 or 15. France and Germany no longer have such an influance on the EU as it was in any point of time in the past - and this is a new situation.
We certainly aren`t going to bow down accepting some silly rules, who don`t have much in common with common sense. Certainly not with this government (which I have a feeling is going to last for quite a while) as well with the peoples atitudes. The same can be said about the Balts, who not long ago made it virtually impossible to legalize gay marriage in their countries, the Czechs, who have a president who shares exacly the same views as ours, the Slovaks, who not long ago had problems with Gypsie riots, and who had elected a leftwing government who had created a coalition with a REAL rightwing extremist party, whose leader attends his parliamentary sessions with a loaded pistol calling for the anahilation of Hungary (which is quite funny btw.), the Hungarians, had also lived under communism, and don`t want to see any sort of censorship in their country, as well the Romanians and Bulgarians, who are going to enter the EU very soon.
Ofcourse right now we aren`t in a position to improve Europe for the better, we can only block some of the Euro-leftie silly ideas - but things change pretty fast in Europe.
