Maybe you don't — if you say so — but you certainly seem inclined to instantly believe any damn unflattering claim made about it.
Is Britain about to leave the EU?

So why make such histrionic posts such as the one I quoted previously?

Where are all the pot/kettle gifs when you need one.
Ehm, wait. How the hell can there be no sanctions against a country for selling EU citizenship? That is nothing short of ludicrous and unethical.
And? Obviously the people buy it not due to wanting to live in Hungary or Malta. Selling a passport to the whole EU should not be something one country can opt to do for money for its own self. And the easiest solution to such would be to legislate than any money gained through this go to an EU fund or go to all countries.
If I can be called out on allegedly histrionic posts, why can't I do the same? I'm not the one suggesting that pro-EU pro-indy Scots are simply lying to themselves and others.

One would think so, but they're sovereign and so can do pretty much what they like with how citizenship is parsed. No one has raised the issue, and the countries doing certainly would seem un-inclined to do so (they tend to be able to stop such initiatives).
The EU member state ARE sovereign relative each other in almost all respects still. The bits that have been negotiated to be put up for common arbitration within the groups aren't THAT many after all.
Not when what they are selling is not citizenship to their own realm only, but the entire EU. And Hungary is a rather glaring example of those post 2003 EU countries which never should have been in the union.
Along with the baltic ones, Slovakia, probably also Slovenia. Croatia is a nice tough too, of course
TBH other than Czech republic (and i used to think Poland too), the rest shouldn't have been allowed in.Accepted by whom? We are one of the oldest members of this union fyi. Besides, if we weren't in how could the germans and french sell us all those weapons and cars.
Well, after the core six, the UK, Ireland and Denmark. 
If Greece had tried to join in the Noughties, they clearly shouldn't have been allowed to do so, but it's easier just to point fingers and blame Brussels or Berlin, right?

The treaties were made and passed in the mid 70s. 1981 is just the official time of becoming EU member.
And more importantly, why do you keep posting in a thread about a union you don't belong to anyway?
We sell weapons in quantity to many non-EU countries. Serge Dassault doesn't care who you are as long as he can sell you stuff

Quite but consider finding the variables for A x B = C
where A is cost of buying Greek Citzenship
where B is required number of customers
C is the total value of Greek Debt (plus one way train tickets from Greece to Berlin).
If you like, replace Greek with British throughout.
I thought that the usual refrain was that foreign undesirables were getting passports to come to Britain, not the reverse.
