How is it democratic when the Brexiteers straight up lied to people? Told them tons and tons of lies, misconceptions to enforce their perverse views. That's not democracy at old, it's manipulation, corruption and treason. In the aftermath of the vote many realised what they've done and as the negotiations went on, many lose more and more their faith in it. Democracy isn't total, it's very much alive. If the people would've voted against Brexit there would've been another try later. Just as in Scotland with the independence. It's democratic to give people a choice but after the vote people behaved like it's total, unchangable. And in the end they enforced something which was domed from tge start. For Brexit wasn't a democratic choice but abuse. In the end they just did the same as Hitler, who made tons of promises and lies to get in power, to get what he want. The Brexiteers just use the same tools and abused democracy just like Hitler did. Of course they are not like Hitler, they just use the same manipulative tools.
"Why would they need their own flag" You don't need to think of it as a flag. More like a Logo. You could say "Why would Apple need a flag?" It's not a flag. It's a Logo. "Anthem" Again, you could think of it just like a song they like. "and parliament" That was there from the beggining. That is why countries join the EU. For the parliament and it's benefits.
@Marcus-Aerilius Maximus Please buy some history books. First of there are many states who where sort of forced in the US trough conquest. Like former parts of Mexico. In the EU every country voted to join himself, the EU has no military so it cannot force countries to join. Every country has the freedom to leave if they want.
@Marcus-Aerilius Maximus Maybe you should start to read some things, before insulting people. And maybe do not use Marcus Aurelius, as your name, if you cannot even decently behave like him.
This is one of the most shameful acts of disrespect I've ever seen from anyone representing our great country on the international stage. This is deeply embarrassing to the good people of the UK. I can't possibly believe that these people are from the same country as me.
I keep thinking about these despicable brexit nitwits who turned their backs on Ode to Joy. So shameful. They were showing even less respect for themselves by saying ‘No’ to Brother and Sisterhood, to life and to love. . Such contemptible oxygen thieves. So sad...
As A Brit I am ashamed to see this kind of petty, disrespectful behavior. An embarrassment to our nation. They could at least show some decorum. We aren't turning our backs on the EU, they need to remember that if the UK wants to succeed they will still need the EU as a major trading partner.
He is just saying that in the same way it's disrespectful to not stand for another country's anthem whether or not you disagree with them, the same applies to the EU
So that means other people now have the right to disrespect the anthem of the UK? And also turn their back towards it?! Even if people disagree with a country or the EU, it's highly disrespectful to turn the their backs on a national anthem, especially if you are a guest there.
@Gabriel That's something completely different. I would also turn my back for the old parts of our national anthem. And even if the EU isn't a country it's still highly disrespectful.
Adults has the great responsibility to represent not only themselves but also their childrens that they will inherit the earth 🌎. This is why we chose politicians with the most childish behaviour.
@Stefan Jager ?? Confused what you're saying, but yeah, America invented the internet, we sent the first IP packet in the world. We invented the platform you are on right now.
French. It's a translation of Ode to Joy by Maurice Bouchor (1855-1929). The singer is French soprano Anais Yvoz who I guess chose to sing it in her own language rather than the original German. Beginning at 2:53: Que la joie qui nous appelle (That the joy which calls us) Nous accueille en sa clarté ! (should receive us in its clarity) Que s’éveille sous son aile (That it should awaken beneath its wing ) L’allégresse et la beauté ! (jubilation and beauty) Plus de haine sur la terre (No more hatred on the Earth) Que renaisse le bonheur (on which happiness is reborn) Tous les hommes sont des frères (All men are brothers) Quand la joie unit les cœurs. (when joy unites hearts.)
Actually a disgrace to global democracy and peace. These people not only represent millions of citizens of EU but also show to world leaders outside the EU that this behaviour is acceptable. It makes me absolutely disgusted that nationalism and sovereignty is held at such a high regard in UK.
The British meps were very disrespectful of the anthem of the EU. In my way of thinking they are behaving very childishly.The UK I used to respect, but this nonsense is ridiculous. Out of the EU UK will either. They would be outraged if other EU members reacted the same way as this group of British members to the singing of God save the Queen. Somehow I think they have more class than that. As a Canadian and member of the Commonwealth, I am ashamed at this childless.
The conservatives of Britain and the Brexiteers are making a once great nation look like a third world bunch of hypocrites. JOhnson will not keep his promises. He will lead with some help, the country to a dismal end. God keep the UK from his clutch for any length of time. It reminds me of a quote. "Lord forgive them for they know not what they do".

"Anthem" Again, you could think of it just like a song they like.
"and parliament" That was there from the beggining. That is why countries join the EU. For the parliament and it's benefits.
@Marcus-Aerilius Maximus Please buy some history books. First of there are many states who where sort of forced in the US trough conquest. Like former parts of Mexico. In the EU every country voted to join himself, the EU has no military so it cannot force countries to join. Every country has the freedom to leave if they want.
@Marcus-Aerilius Maximus Maybe you should start to read some things, before insulting people. And maybe do not use Marcus Aurelius, as your name, if you cannot even decently behave like him.
What a angelic voice. Thank you!
In which language was the anthem sung?
This is one of the most shameful acts of disrespect I've ever seen from anyone representing our great country on the international stage. This is deeply embarrassing to the good people of the UK. I can't possibly believe that these people are from the same country as me.

I keep thinking about these despicable brexit nitwits who turned their backs on Ode to Joy. So shameful. They were showing even less respect for themselves by saying ‘No’ to Brother and Sisterhood, to life and to love. . Such contemptible oxygen thieves. So sad...
No, they were saying no the European Union. They shouldn't have been there because we should have left before this election.
What a bunch of children... so disrespectful of the UK, just shows how serious their country is to begin with.
Guess it’s time to bring out the Special Containment Procedures hidden underground in Buckingham Palace
Lots and lots of Russians on this thread, like most that have anything to do with Brexit. We're on to you Vlad.

Ojalá los españoles sigamos su ejemplo y dejemos esta unión alemana del cuarto reich.
As A Brit I am ashamed to see this kind of petty, disrespectful behavior. An embarrassment to our nation. They could at least show some decorum. We aren't turning our backs on the EU, they need to remember that if the UK wants to succeed they will still need the EU as a major trading partner.
Donut boi was so busy trying to flim them he forgot that he also turned his back
XD
1:26 1. The EU is not a country and shouldn't have an anthem. 2. Why should BP respect its anthem, they have a right to protest.
He is just saying that in the same way it's disrespectful to not stand for another country's anthem whether or not you disagree with them, the same applies to the EU
So that means other people now have the right to disrespect the anthem of the UK? And also turn their back towards it?!
Even if people disagree with a country or the EU, it's highly disrespectful to turn the their backs on a national anthem, especially if you are a guest there.
@Gabriel That's something completely different. I would also turn my back for the old parts of our national anthem. And even if the EU isn't a country it's still highly disrespectful.
@Gabriel The USA did that long ago and you still be respectful for its anthem.
@Gabriel I'm referring to the day, when the American states became the USA

Rnz eider was ist dein Problem??
@Stouffer Nein ist es nicht.
That's french
That's ode to joy
yes, the anthem of the EU
No the Anthem is just a little Part from ode to Joy ^^
The tune played as they steal money in Die Hard...ironic it is used as thieves take money.
people at the end of the day we are still united apart of NATO
Adults has the great responsibility to represent not only themselves but also their childrens that they will inherit the earth 🌎.
This is why we chose politicians with the most childish behaviour.
not gonna lie, that's a pretty lame anthem. Europe will never be able to truly unite like the states did in the USA.
And they stole it from Rhodesia too.

Except UKIP did it before too,
Bit late to the party, but what language is this, I can't actually make that out myself 😅
Wonder what their views on Colin Kaepernick are.
What language is this sung in?
German
Latin
French.
It's a translation of Ode to Joy by Maurice Bouchor (1855-1929). The singer is French soprano Anais Yvoz who I guess chose to sing it in her own language rather than the original German.
Beginning at 2:53:
Que la joie qui nous appelle (That the joy which calls us)
Nous accueille en sa clarté ! (should receive us in its clarity)
Que s’éveille sous son aile (That it should awaken beneath its wing )
L’allégresse et la beauté ! (jubilation and beauty)
Plus de haine sur la terre (No more hatred on the Earth)
Que renaisse le bonheur (on which happiness is reborn)
Tous les hommes sont des frères (All men are brothers)
Quand la joie unit les cœurs. (when joy unites hearts.)
Ludwig van Beethoven, ode to joy
T H E F L I P P E D P A C E R Definitly not German, lol. I speak it and it’s not even near it at all
How long has the EU been a country, to deserve such respect. Such unsupported vanity!
The EU is a clown world.

Beautiful done. Voice worth listening 👂 to and God happy how use your talent to be a blessing for European hearts. 🙏🏽📖😇
Actually a disgrace to global democracy and peace. These people not only represent millions of citizens of EU but also show to world leaders outside the EU that this behaviour is acceptable. It makes me absolutely disgusted that nationalism and sovereignty is held at such a high regard in UK.

That is why we're glad
why?
All those MEPs are thinking €€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€s
The British meps were very disrespectful of the anthem of the EU. In my way of thinking they are behaving very childishly.The UK I used to respect, but this nonsense is ridiculous. Out of the EU UK will either. They would be outraged if other EU members reacted the same way as this group of British members to the singing of God save the Queen. Somehow I think they have more class than that. As a Canadian and member of the Commonwealth, I am ashamed at this childless.
The conservatives of Britain and the Brexiteers are making a once great nation look like a third world bunch of hypocrites. JOhnson will not keep his promises. He will lead with some help, the country to a dismal end. God keep the UK from his clutch for any length of time. It reminds me of a quote. "Lord forgive them for they know not what they do".
as a classical musician (pianist) this is not only an act of disrespectment to the EU but the maestro himself (beethoven) and alongside that. The entire classical music community Childrish AF
More like disrespect to Ian Smith and the whole nation of Rhodesia!
Its got feck all to do with the music you muppet, its got everything to do with the eu thinking its a country. the Brexit party MEPs do not and never will accept the eu as its own country.
I tought the British had class. This is so tacky.
They are mildly entertaining in a bizarre, clownish sort of way like most Brexiters.
@Viz Sorry I triggered you.
I am not a remainer btw b/c I'm not british.
I feel sorry for Brits who voted remain, especially those in poverty, who now will be worse off.
But I think in the long term it's probably better for the EU if the UK leaves.
Also, due to the free-falling pound there are already fewer drunken english tourists / stag parties where I live - so that's a bonus.
@Viz You mean you are a petulant child like most brexiteers? Well color me surprised...

Jaime Costa Thanks for sharing your story. It’s sad to know that you’re one of the people that left the country because of the decision of the people that were lied to by the pro Brexit party. Although I’m only half English because my mum is from Spain and I also grew up there when I was still a child, I always believed that the UK is stronger and safer in the EU. Hopefully, in the future we will be given the chance once again to decide if we would want to join or stay out.
Just as police upped they game on the front line. Think that Hiroshima and Nagasaki was not to warn us but rather to advertise it on the basis of it being controlled to some extent. Big industry in those early days. Rules of engagement will change. Don't get left behind.

@@jasonsteward99 Ìt's not a country, it's a union of sovereign states. That UNION has an anthem to promote UNITY.

Imagine what Europe would have looked like without :
• The Soviet Union
• The United States of America
• The United Kingdom

England and France where the ones that caused the most deaths through their uncountable wars and if England never existed, West Europe would probably be dominated by France, so there wouldn't even have been any World Wars.
