That doesnt really have anything to do with Europe. Illegal asylym seekers would come even if UK was part of North America :P Fun fact the biggest amount of refugees are in the poorest countries in the world.

Cool, another day to add to our national celebrations in the UK.
The Welsh celebrate St. David's Day and go out and get ****ed
The Scots celebrate St.Andrew's day and go out and get ****ed
The Brits SHOULD celebrate St.George's day and go out and get ****d
and the Irish celebrate payday and go out and get ****ed

Its not really like that. The point is to have day where we e.g. discuss Europe, remember what it has done and what direction we want it to go. Now seeing as UK is probably the most eurosceptic country (reason for my avatar ;)), so i thought id get a lot of posts like kathryn's, have the ability to maby break some myths and stuff like that. Remind people what Europe has done and whats the point in it. e.g. something like that:
http://www.independent.co.uk/news/europe/so-what-has-europe-ever-done-for-us-apart-from-441138.html
It points out few things that i think people have forgotten.
