in vault item: Map won't compileComment #21298
Jessie or anyone else intent on trying this map, it's just a text file containing the text "password: monkeyisland42", with the file extension .map. Probably part of an old forum game.

"So for instance the EU could tell UK to open their borders to accept whatever illegal immigrants come in" No. The UK wouldn't have to do it. They haven't signed the Schengen agreement. As for the countries that did sign the Schengen agreement, they can restore border controls temporarily if there's a threat to their internal security, like Sweden has done.

I'm sad to see this happen. The EU has increased trade between its member countries and if Europe is going to stay as peaceful as it is, that trade will have to continue. I'm also disappointed because I've been thinking of spending one semester at a foreign university and Scotland would have been my first choice of country. I hope the inevitable changes in regulation won't make that too cumbersome.
I can sympathise with people who are against centralisation of power, but surely it's better to try to change the EU from within than to have little to no influence over its policies when you'll still have to adopt many of its policies in order to be allowed to stay in the EEA or enjoy a treatment similar to its members'?

@Shepard: Tiger cake is a real thing. It's nothing special. Would rather recommend chocolate balls. They used to be known as negro balls. @Satchmo: I hope you'll enjoy it. Be sure to see the archipelago. One of my best childhood memories is when I went boating there with my family.
