    There are moves already.

    Just listening to the ABC. Talk is Ireland reunifying, seeking independence and joining the EU. Now that would be interesting.

    I think the Gazi's (global socialist) will try to force a war with Russia. Like Britian, Russia will not surrender there culture and heritage and will have to be taken by force. Both nations will refuse assimilation into the NWO.

    A that was History. Things Change. Just like Natzi Germany is not Natzi Germany any more.

    This party has become a conservative movement.

    Only far right people believe that. Even Nigel Farage refused to be publicly linked with Le Penn.

    Yes
    But the problem is a loss of "democracy".
    The Greeks, like the French elect one gov't and find another delivered.

    Greece has such astronomical shorelines that create fisheries.
    As a member of the EU, German corporate boats rape without concern
    of sustainability demonstrated by Greeks for generations.

    Support Grexit!
    And damn traitorous politicians who lie to the people who elected them.

    She is less radical than her father but still more radical than traditional conservatives. I consider the NF to be of the far right not the right.

    There seems to be a lot of hysteria out there but the WSJ offers some perspective.

    " Britain Escapes the Brussels Bureaucracy

    U.S. markets are in for a rough ride today following the British vote for freedom from the European Union and its anti-democratic Brussels bureaucracy. Investors should look beyond the short-term uncertainty and transition costs and consider the significant competitive edge the U.K. gains with this massive de-regulatory stimulus. The EU did not make London a world financial center&#8212;smart British policy makers and businesspeople did. Going forward, the U.K. can likely cut a trade deal with the EU along the lines of what Norway and Switzerland have done. Even if Britain can&#8217;t, as Matt Ridley noted this week, &#8220;container shipping, budget airlines, the internet and the collapse of tariffs under the World Trade Organization&#8221; have made it &#8220;as easy to do business with Australia and China as with France and Germany.&#8221;

    Didn't they come very close of leaving last year? But then something happened and they kept going.

    Here is an article from last summer...

    Perhaps you can figure out what happened?

    LOL Greece was a failed state because of their expansive socialist programs that they couldn't afford which had nothing to do with the EU and would remain a failed state were it not for the massive bail outs which its fellow EU members provided.

    The only winners here are the Russians whose radical right puppet fifth columnist parties they fund are a big reason this happened. Russia has been poring money into extremist parties on the left and right which are opposed to the EU since Putin took office so they can destroy the West and its economic dominance on the European continent, from within.

    In short the UK voted for freedom from the unelected bureaucrats in Brussells. In effect they learned something from their former colony in America. The globalists and anti-capitalists are having a fit over such chutzpah.

    The officials of the EU council consists of the elected heads of state/governments of each member state and the European commission is appointed by the directly elected officials of the EU Parliament.

    Stop projecting! Russia doesn't interfere in other nations affairs, only Washington does.

    Exactly, the U.K. doesn't vote for the EU Parliment.

    Steady Pie,

    It looks like from the UK point of view you are right and I was wrong. They are already talking about it being possible to go into an election deciding to do something else. They are talking about Britain now choosing the kind of relationship it has with the EU - to a large extent saying this vote means nothing.

    However from the EU point of view they are talking about doing things very quickly and giving the UK a very poor deal with no access to the Single Market. They are speaking about a deal like Turkey or Canada have.

    So basically at the moment it is looking like the UK does not actually understand what it has done but it seems the EU does so we will need to wait and see.

    In the long run, IMO it will be to Britain's benefit.

    Why not?

    IMO the goal should be to enable every country to be as happy as possible, as long as it does not harm others.

    I can't help believing, with all this nonsensical yammering about "racism," that there aren't operatives in the US doing all they can to derail us as well. Despite such suspicions, IMO England will be better off in the end, as its people will have more control over their own destiny. Being forced to import people whose culture basically hates theirs without any control over specific individuals would IMO eventually have led to genocide of the Anglo-Saxon and Celtic Brits.

    That seems like the plan voiced by many Muslims. Here's one. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XQ-VVa2x_w4

    I can't believe such nonsensical paranoid yammerings as above pass for political opinion.

    Really? You vote for everyone in the Parliment? In 2014 the UK had 73 of 751 seats. The EU Parliment makes the UK Parliment a Duma, less a legislative body and more of an advisory body with override by the EU.

    Does Florida vote for everyone in the US Congress and Senate? No. Is the US Congress and Senate unelected? All members of the EU Parliament are directly elected by universal suffrage.

    The following one on Muslim Demographics is also informative. Your video has a Muslim spiritual leader counting up how many Muslims are already in Europe--50 million--and counting on an additional 50 million soon, with Muslims from Turkeym /Albania, and Bosnia.

    What annoys me the most is that for years our leadership has insisted that one way to save the planet is by limiting our own numbers here in the West--has the Plan always been to replace us with Muslims? And what of the recent news that there are already half again as many people on the planet as the Earth can support without harm?

    Getting followers to maximize reproduction is not new--the Catholics are past masters at it. Doing this in the face of permanent ecological damage, with the loss of hundr4eds of species already, is against everything religion is supposed to stand for.
