I tried to read their manifesto but it wouldn't open in my browser.

I based my comment solely on the thought that a "republican" form of government would be an improvement on the EU as it is currently constituted (i.e. as an unaccountable monarchy run by European elites and Brussels bureaucrats).

Nobody in Europe understands the concept of a republic in US terms. Take note of their intent to disestablish “states” and compare it with the US republic’s imperative to protect the rights of states. They’re pushing a highly-centralized socialist republic in the USSR’s mold, as I noted.

Citizens cannot be sovereign if they don’t even have basic freedom of speech.

Well, imagine all states being disestablished in the USA and all government administered from DC. That’s what this Balcony Project wants.

In Norway there are gangs of Soccer Hooligans who go after the Burka crowd. Follow them home from games.

We can launch another Marshall Plan when the dust settles, only we get to keep the new sh==+ afterward.
