Advertisement Posted April 25, 2016 Posted April 25, 2016 Hi elmarman, Take a look here Obama Back Off ! . I'm sure you'll find what you were looking for!
Steve Ricoh Posted April 25, 2016 Share #2 Posted April 25, 2016 I quite like Obama, and if it were possible a third term in office would be ideal. But, I wish he wouldn't poke his nose in the affairs of the U.K. referendum. In fact the more I hear from the scaremongers, the more inclined I am to vote to leave.

stephen j Posted April 25, 2016 Share #3 Posted April 25, 2016 I am not an American citizen so I don't speak English with an American twang or vocabulary... But if I were, I am pretty sure that I would not be using the word 'queue', rather I would be using the word 'line'. I would venture to suggest that Mr. Obama did not write that speech, he just read it out. As a free born English man who is an addicted Leica camera user and very much a European, I do not wish to be dictated to by a politburo in Brussels, currently known as the European Commission and the centre of the anti-democratic power crazed European Union. Just like I don't suppose the average American citizen would want to be ruled by an unelected committee in (say) Lima (Peru). Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

stephen j Posted April 25, 2016 Share #5 Posted April 25, 2016 Really nice picture of Middle England ...... What does it say then? And while you are at it Andreas... What was the result of the last two Dutch referendums, and what does that say about democracy in the EU? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndreasAM Posted April 25, 2016 Share #6 Posted April 25, 2016 I made a complimentary comment on the picture, not on English politics. I am from the Netherlands, remember... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
LUF Admin Posted April 25, 2016 Share #7 Posted April 25, 2016 Advertisement (gone after registration) Folks, this is a sensitive political issue which isn't suited to be discussed neither in this thread (it's the photo forum) nor in this forum. Thanks for not discussing this any further. Andreas (another one) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

sblitz Posted April 25, 2016 Share #9 Posted April 25, 2016 Politics aside, the group does look like something Monty Python would've dreamed up ..... Nice shot! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for not discussing this any further. Andreas (another one) OK I won't discuss it any further apart from adding that Andreas changed his original comment from something not at all complementary, which was why I replied to him... Anyway, I apologise if I have offended anyone... I agree that politics is not meant to be discussed in a photographic forum... Since there are no photographers with or without a Leica that make political statements with their cameras? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
stuny Posted April 25, 2016 Share #11 Posted April 25, 2016 Stephen - It's just the forum rules, not the abilities of the cameras, but I'm certain you know that Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
