No other countries will quit EU after Britain: EU chief Juncker

[original PM]

In trying to make everyone tge same you will ruin the uniqueness of each country.

Rarely do european nations war with each other; most post world war 2 conflicts have been civil wars.

Would a united europe have stopped them.

To be fair, so did a hero to most brexiters, Winston Churchill...

to be fair he saw us as being outside. He saw it as a commonwealth of Europe not the EUSSR.


Normally I decide some things based on who supports them. The EU we have Juncker, Merkel, Hollande, B'Liar, B'ruin, Kinnock & the Krankies King & Fish. Now does it seem like a bad idea?

The EU wasn't much cop in Kosovo, Chechnya & Ukraine. That would of been the UN & NATO.

Quite. The EU haven't been visibly useful with the migrant crisis either, it's all been left to individual nations to sort out (badly, as it turns out). Makes one wonder if the EU could ever do anything useful or constructive in a crisis. It seems likely not. Still, they must be good for something, or our Scots friends wouldn't be wetting their pants to stay in. Can't for the life of me see what that might be, but I'll keep looking...

Well you have May, Johnson, Farage, Le Pen, Trump, Wilders, Putin, Erdogan, et. al. Enjoy it...

Fooked either way then. At least we get to give things a bit of a shake.

actually from Johnson onwards we get to share those idiots with the EU. Obviously you will expect us to clean up after you when the EU cocks it up!

And from the wrong type of lightbulb, don't forget.

He's a politician, FFS.

He isn't exactly going to turn around and say "Other nations will likely follow Britain's example and leave the EU, and we're bricking it that our gravy train is about to fail."

Of course he's going to talk it up. He isn't the most honest of politicians out there.

1917 was the Russian revolution, 2017 is when PM May triggers article 50.
