    Britain is definitely out.
    Marine Le Pen won big and wants France out.
    The euro has been rebuffed on the Baltic rim.
    Right now the German taxpayer is having to pay extra taxes to shore it up.

    Doesn't look good.

    I always thought: EU without Britain would be better. So let them leave, like that the EU is stronger. We do need a strong independent power apart from Nato.

    And the french did not vote for leaving the EU, they did vote against Hollande. If you ask them if they want to leave the EU, 80% will tell you: no way.

    We do need the EU as it was planned: more french, more german, more polish may be but less british, less anglo saxon, less about that "new Europe style". A counter balance.


    Take care

    Some fools hope that West-Ukrainians will help them to get out of this debacle.

    :D

    The French weasels may be the ones to kill off the Euro, already under pressure from Greece, Portugal, Spain and Italy. Britain is not as crucial because they never properly adopted the Euro (still using Pounds Sterling). Now, if someone points out to the French that pulling out of the Euro could potentially collapse the EU economy the French may have second thoughts (the French are masters at changing their minds AND at breaking their word).

    A weasel is a cute animal. Also smart and strong.

    Thank you for that nice compliment.
