Would you really categorize it as "stubbornness"? 

Eh no but I'd put him under uncompromising. Perhaps you see that as a virtue. I see it as a flaw.

Ok, so now let's build a strong political union. We won't be slowed down by the UK anymore.

Is it likely other countries will follow? 

Netherlands. Denmark. Sweden. Even Greece.

All are likely to leave.

Some even say France, but I doubt it.

I see uncompromising as a virtue on issues that you shouldn't compromise on (i.e. civil rights), but I agree it's a flaw when dealing with things like budgets. I think overall candidates should have a mix of those two things, but have a general track record of ideological consistency and integrity. Just my view.

Considering that claim of yours has no base, then you're not exactly a trusted source so a valid conclusion can't be drawn. 

Are you honestly trying to attack me for the integrity of my posts? I always provide links to the figures and they're always from valid sources. Feel free to provide proof. Otherwise I suggest you rein your insults 

Since when is Politifact not a viable source? I find it disconcerting that you are more likely to believe media outlets than Pulitzer Prize winning fact checkers. 

What's next you're going to start calling the Oxford Dictionary unreliable?

Also your third statement is a hilarious way to abuse statistics. The she has 3 "Pants on Fire" statements out of a total of 212 statements. That's 1.4% of her statements being absolute lies.

Burn her at the stake.

Meanwhile Hillary has 23% of her statements being Complete Truths while Sanders only scores 14%. What about that?

I don't trust politifact because it doesn't take into account the amount of times they've said the statement. Hillary takes the same lie and spins it until it's been debunked.

I'm gonna steer this back the the EU, because you're getting out of hand.

I think come November I'm going to post articles of Trump losing the general to certain people's accounts every single day for the next 8 years.

Could someone please give me a brief lecture about what the referendum was about?

Politifact won a Pulitzer prize for National Reporting in 2009 for "its fact-checking initiative during the 2008 presidential campaign that used probing reporters and the power of the World Wide Web to examine more than 750 political claims, separating rhetoric from truth to enlighten voters". inb4 you say they've bought it 

Not even close. Go look at my post above.

Oh no I totally agree. Some issues should never be compromised on, especially human rights.

Hillary has been very much consistent though. She has always represented the more moderate liberalism.

Unfortunately those who are moderate are often viewed as enemies to those to their left and right.

According to recent polls, 61% of French view the EU unfavorably. In 2005 the French people voted down the draft constitution, shocking French leaders. The Front Nationale has promised a referendum on EU membership if they are elected.

So this could have a snowball effect.

Lol. The UK is the most important country in Europe after Germany. Besides, multiple polls suggest that others countries, such as The Netherlands, want to exit as well. This is the beginning of the end for the bureaucratic, undemocratic, corrupt, uber-liberal mess that is called the EU. Don't u just luv it? I know I do

Where are you getting this from?

Look at any random judged statement and you'll see it's done immediately regarding that statement.

Also the statements are always unique. They only judge controversial statements that are contested. Repeating the same lie does not make you a bigger liar, just like repeating the same truth does not make you more honest.

Your failure to understand how Politifact works only underscores how irrelevant your opinion regarding its viability is.
