    Not exactly saved the EU but certainly bolstered it and gave it at least one very important possible financial advantage. A few years before Brexit some EU countries had been complaining that the UK, a non-euro country, was the main centre for euro based financial transactions like euro clearing and derivatives. The European Court of Justice rejected the complaints saying that prohibiting euro transaction trading in the UK would be a discriminatory action against an EU member country. After Brexit that caveat no longer exists and slowly but surely the migration of euro based transactions to European financial centres has begun and will continue. In fact, EuroNext, which manages many of the Stock Exchanges in Europe and is merged with the NYSE, is beefing up its existing transactional platforms and implementing new ones in centres like Milan. The EU seems not to be particularly interested in having a central financial hub and prepared to sacrifice the relative economies of scale that entails in order to spread the benefits among member countries .

    We cannot thank the Brexiteers enough! Thanks to you guys I don’t take the EU for granted anymore. I enjoy the freedom of movement over 4,200,000 square km, which is bigger than India btw. And next time I cross the Channel, I still can roam for free! Because the EU cares for its citizens. Greetings from Belgium, EU

    @@user-cd1di5mo4c Neither is Ireland! Freedom of movement is a core principle of the European Union. It allows EU citizens to travel, work, and live in any other EU member state without needing special permits. The Schengen Area, established by the Schengen Agreement, builds on this freedom. It removes internal border controls between member states. This means EU citizens can travel throughout the Schengen Area without passport checks. As an EU citizen, I have the right to travel, live and work in Ireland thanks to the freedom of movement principle. There are some minimal requirements, but the process is generally straightforward for EU citizens.I don’t see the point you’re trying to make.

    I think many in the UK are learning the hard way that, a) the British Empire is really , really over now b) the UK is a big European country, but only a mid sized global player. To compete on the global stage, you have to be close with your neighbors c) much of the UK media is polemic in nature, and their habit of blaming Brussels for everything came with a very big price. The average Brit's understanding of the EU and its purpose is ridiculously poor.

    @@maxharbig1167 And here comes the detail. 1. THE EU’s FEDERAL INTENTIONS (ie. to make one big country) Lisbon Treaty Article 3.4: “The Union shall establish an ECONOMIC and monetary UNION whose currency is the euro.” EU Five Presidents’ Report, 2015: “Progress MUST HAPPEN on four fronts: first, towards a genuine ECONOMIC UNION that ensures each economy has the structural features to prosper within the Monetary Union. Second, towards a FINANCIAL UNION that guarantees the integrity of our currency across the Monetary Union and increases risk-sharing with the private sector. This means completing the Banking Union and accelerating the Capital Markets Completing Europe’s Economic and Monetary Union. Third, towards a FISCAL UNION that delivers both fiscal sustainability and fiscal stabilisation. And finally, towards a POLITICAL UNION that provides the foundation for all of the above through genuine democratic accountability, legitimacy and institutional strengthening.” Angela Merkel’s immediate response to the referendum result, 24th June 2016: “Today is a watershed moment for Europe, and it is a watershed moment for the EUROPEAN UNIFICATION PROCESS. There is no doubt that this is a blow to Europe, and to the EUROPEAN UNIFICATION PROCESS.” EU Rome Declaration, 25th March 2017: “Working towards COMPLETING the ECONOMIC and monetary UNION” (with a preferred deadline for completion of 2027). ECB’s ‘Fiscal Implications of the EU Recovery Package’ 2020. “The way that the EU has responded to the crisis also has implications for the future design and implementation of the EUROPEAN GOVERNANCE FRAMEWORK. First, while expansionary fiscal policy is necessary to sustain the recovery, going forward it will be important for the fiscal rules to effectively support the reduction of high government debt in good economic times. Second, NGEU constitutes a new and innovative element of the EUROPEAN FISCAL FRAMEWORK. It will result in the issuance of sizeable supranational debt over the coming years, and its establishment has signalled a political readiness to design a common fiscal tool when the need arises. This innovation, while a one-off, could also imply lessons for ECONOMIC and Monetary UNION, which still lacks a PERMANENT FISCAL CAPACITY AT SUPRANATIONAL LEVEL for macroeconomic stabilisation in deep crises. The review of the ECONOMIC GOVERNANCE FRAMEWORK, which was launched by the Commission in February 2020 and postponed because of the pandemic, provides a GOOD OPPORTUNITY TO INCORPORATE THESE IMPORTANT CONSIDERATIONS.” (NGEU stands for “Next Generation European Union”). From the EU’s own website: “Once the economic and financial crisis (of 2008/9) was overcome, the EU established a process aimed at reinforcing the architecture of EMU (ECONOMIC and monetary UNION). The process is based on the Five Presidents’ Report on Completing Europe’s Economic and Monetary Union of 2015, which focused on four main issues: • A genuine ECONOMIC UNION; • A FINANCIAL UNION; • A FISCAL UNION; • A POLITICAL UNION. These four unions are STRICTLY INTER-RELATED and would develop in parallel. The report was followed by a series of communications, proposals and measures, and the discussion is still ongoing.” In 2022 all member states reaffirmed their commitment to economic union, as part of Lisbon Treaty Article 3. From the EU’s website (dated 29/4/24): “Today the Council adopted three pieces of legislation that will reform the EU’s ECONOMIC AND FISCAL GOVERNANCE FRAMEWORK. ‘The main objective of the reform is to ensure sound and sustainable public finances, while promoting sustainable and inclusive growth in all member states through reforms and investment. The new legislation will significantly improve the existing framework and provide effective and applicable rules for all EU countries. They will safeguard balanced and sustainable public finances, increase the focus on structural reforms and investments to spur growth and job creation throughout the EU. The time is now for a swift implementation’: Vincent Van Peteghem, Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Finance of Belgium.” 2. THE EU’S MILITARY INTENTIONS Lisbon Treaty Article 42.3: “Member states shall make civilian and MILITARY capabilities available to the Union for the implementation of the common security and defence policy, to contribute to the objectives DEFINED BY THE EUROPEAN COUNCIL.” The EU’s military headquarters is the Kortenberg Building in Brussels. The EU Global Strategy, 30th June 2016, issued exactly one week after the referendum, contains the right of the EU’s military “to act autonomously (of NATO) if and when necessary”. It will need this, because, as you should know, Lisbon Treaty Article 42 commits member states to the defence of a member under attack. So if Ukraine is still under attack when it joins the EU, it will be the EU which is at war with Russia, not NATO. The defence of Ukraine doesn’t trigger the NATO charter. On 19th February 2019 Federica Mogherini told an audience in Hamburg: “... all the way through the security spectrum, up to the military operations, because not so many know that the European Union has seventeen deployed missions and operations around the world. So, together, we are already a unique global security provider.” I checked this figure recently. It now stands at twenty-one. On 23rd April 2019 the European Council issued its Military Command and Control Structures document, outlining its military command structure over member states’ land, sea and air forces. The diagram contained within reappears on the Wikipedia page for the Kortenberg Building, above. In September 2021 Ursula Von der Leyen said this: “But what we need is the European Defence Union. In the last weeks there have been many discussions on expeditionary forces. On what type and how many we need: battlegroups or EU entry forces. This is no doubt part of the debate - and I believe it will be part of the solution. But the more fundamental issue is why this has not worked in the past. You can have the most advanced forces in the world - but if you are never prepared to use them - of what use are they?” Last year the EU led joint military exercises in Spain. This is taken from the EU’s CSDP website: “The two-part MILEX 23 exercise commenced on 18 September and concluded on 22 October. The first part of this intense period was a 3-week planning phase by the MPCC in Brussels. In part two, this culminated in the EU’s first ever live military exercise from 16 - 22 October in Rota Naval Base, Cadiz, Spain. During Part 2, an EU Battlegroup-sized force carried out the Operational Plan developed by the MPCC in Part 1. Overall, 19 Member States contributed to MILEX 23.” (CSDP = Common Security and Defence Policy. MPCC = Military Planning and Conduct Capability). 3. Reckless EU expansionism across Eastern Europe - widely known and reported on, including Albania (hotbed of gangsterism and corruption), Serbia and Montenegro (both traditional allies of Russia), Moldova (part of it coveted by Russia), Ukraine (currently at war with Russia), Turkey (instantly the largest, most populous and poorest country in the EU upon joining) and several others, all of which will bring nothing but a begging bowl to the EU’s table. Oh, except for Ukraine, because, as above, Lisbon Treaty Article 42 commits member states to the military aid of a member under attack. So if Ukraine is still at war upon its accession the EU will be at war with Russia. 4. Unfettered migration into Europe from North Africa and the Middle East (the free movement of people was a secret part of the Euro-Mediterranean Partnership, in effect since 2010, and signed between the EU and Morocco, Algeria, Tunisia, Egypt, Jordan, Israel, the Palestine Authority, Lebanon, Syria and Turkey). “Eurocrats do not consider (migration) to be a problem, but rather as a project”: Fabrice Leggeri, former Director of the European Border and Coastguard Agency (Frontex). "The European Union and all leaders of all European nations MUST USE IMMIGRATION to undermine the homogeneity and ethnic identity of the native European people no matter how difficult this will be to explain to the citizens of their nations. This must happen, THIS WILL HAPPEN for globalism to take hold of Europe" - Peter Sutherland speaking in the House of Lords in 2014. If you wish to argue against any of this, you will need to argue with your beloved megalomaniacs in the European Union. I merely report what they say. So .... off you go.

    Denmark's exit was never even a remote possibility. Sure, Danes are champions of free markets, just like the Brits, but that never lead them to conclude that one should leave the biggest and most successful free market zone in the world. Unless one's logic is under the heavy influence of campaign money from both The City and Moscow, this line of reasoning appears mildly flawed. But the promise of £350 million per week to the broken NHS was too good to let go I assume. People should walk up to Westminster and demand to get that money now or insist on a new referendum.

    Great Britain always had a parasitic relationship with the colonies of it's former empire. The Commonwealth as Empire V.2 didn't really work for the UK's economy in the same way. Joining the EU meant that in return for certain economic advantages, Britain was now bound by a regulatory framework originating in Brussels. "Freedom" from the EU will most likely lead to the growing economic and political marginalization of what is essentially a small island in the North Atlantic.

    Well said. Many British folk deny this, but the imperial mindset is still a thing among older, lesser educated ppl. While the British Empire itself has been dead and buried for decades, one key aspect of Empire remains. That's money laundering, which began in early 60s, as the Empire collapsed, and the finance industry needed a new franchise. They found it in money laundering. Russian oligarchs, African dictators and other global criminals loved to stash their gains in The London Laundromat. The EU introduced new rules in 2022 which seriously threatened this lucrative business, hence the initial motives to leave. Of course, they couldn't mount a public referendum on , " Save Jobs In Money Laundering!!!". That would never work. So, the emotive, nationalistic ideas were used to great effect. Sad for British ppl. Great for other European countries though, especially IRL, Netherlands, Ger, Portugal, Fra, Spain and Poland.

    You have a problem. Your view of the EU prior to the referendum is based on the views expressed by the British media. I was transferred to The Netherlands in 1978. I hadn't intended staying but I did because even in 1978 the view of the EEC portrayed by the British media was jaundiced, and I found that everything was better in the EEC than I had been led to believe. Over the years I watched the British media present a more and more ridiculous view of the EEC/EU. By the early naughties I told a friend in the UK, who I met in my first year at Uni, that it was inevitable that the UK would leave the EU. My reasoning was simple; who would want to be a member of the EU as it was presented by the British media? He didn't believe me. After the referendum I sent him a copy of my prediction made more than ten years earlier. He just had not been aware of the huge difference between the reality in the EU and the fantasies portrayed by the British media. Even today you still believe that the British media was telling you the way it was back then. I still live in the EU. I watch as people like you struggle to understand why leaving the EU has gone so badly. Until you accept that you were lied to by the British media, you will never be able to understand why it went so wrong. It was inevitable, but that inevitability is only visible to those who were not blindfolded by the linguistic shackles of the English language.

THE EU’s FEDERAL INTENTIONS (ie. to make one big country) Lisbon Treaty Article 3.4: “The Union shall establish an ECONOMIC and monetary UNION whose currency is the euro.” EU Five Presidents’ Report, 2015: “Progress MUST HAPPEN on four fronts: first, towards a genuine ECONOMIC UNION that ensures each economy has the structural features to prosper within the Monetary Union. Second, towards a FINANCIAL UNION that guarantees the integrity of our currency across the Monetary Union and increases risk-sharing with the private sector. This means completing the Banking Union and accelerating the Capital Markets Completing Europe’s Economic and Monetary Union. Third, towards a FISCAL UNION that delivers both fiscal sustainability and fiscal stabilisation. And finally, towards a POLITICAL UNION that provides the foundation for all of the above through genuine democratic accountability, legitimacy and institutional strengthening.” Angela Merkel’s immediate response to the referendum result, 24th June 2016: “Today is a watershed moment for Europe, and it is a watershed moment for the EUROPEAN UNIFICATION PROCESS. There is no doubt that this is a blow to Europe, and to the EUROPEAN UNIFICATION PROCESS.” EU Rome Declaration, 25th March 2017: “Working towards COMPLETING the ECONOMIC and monetary UNION” (with a preferred deadline for completion of 2027). ECB’s ‘Fiscal Implications of the EU Recovery Package’ 2020. “The way that the EU has responded to the crisis also has implications for the future design and implementation of the EUROPEAN GOVERNANCE FRAMEWORK. First, while expansionary fiscal policy is necessary to sustain the recovery, going forward it will be important for the fiscal rules to effectively support the reduction of high government debt in good economic times. Second, NGEU constitutes a new and innovative element of the EUROPEAN FISCAL FRAMEWORK. It will result in the issuance of sizeable supranational debt over the coming years, and its establishment has signalled a political readiness to design a common fiscal tool when the need arises. This innovation, while a one-off, could also imply lessons for ECONOMIC and Monetary UNION, which still lacks a PERMANENT FISCAL CAPACITY AT SUPRANATIONAL LEVEL for macroeconomic stabilisation in deep crises. The review of the ECONOMIC GOVERNANCE FRAMEWORK, which was launched by the Commission in February 2020 and postponed because of the pandemic, provides a GOOD OPPORTUNITY TO INCORPORATE THESE IMPORTANT CONSIDERATIONS.” (NGEU stands for “Next Generation European Union”). From the EU’s own website: “Once the economic and financial crisis (of 2008/9) was overcome, the EU established a process aimed at reinforcing the architecture of EMU (ECONOMIC and monetary UNION). The process is based on the Five Presidents’ Report on Completing Europe’s Economic and Monetary Union of 2015, which focused on four main issues: • A genuine ECONOMIC UNION; • A FINANCIAL UNION; • A FISCAL UNION; • A POLITICAL UNION. These four unions are STRICTLY INTER-RELATED and would develop in parallel. The report was followed by a series of communications, proposals and measures, and the discussion is still ongoing.” In 2022 all member states reaffirmed their commitment to economic union, as part of Lisbon Treaty Article 3. From the EU’s website (dated 29/4/24): “Today the Council adopted three pieces of legislation that will reform the EU’s ECONOMIC AND FISCAL GOVERNANCE FRAMEWORK. ‘The main objective of the reform is to ensure sound and sustainable public finances, while promoting sustainable and inclusive growth in all member states through reforms and investment. The new legislation will significantly improve the existing framework and provide effective and applicable rules for all EU countries. They will safeguard balanced and sustainable public finances, increase the focus on structural reforms and investments to spur growth and job creation throughout the EU. The time is now for a swift implementation’: Vincent Van Peteghem, Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Finance of Belgium.” 2. THE EU’S MILITARY INTENTIONS Lisbon Treaty Article 42.3: “Member states shall make civilian and MILITARY capabilities available to the Union for the implementation of the common security and defence policy, to contribute to the objectives DEFINED BY THE EUROPEAN COUNCIL.” The EU’s military headquarters is the Kortenberg Building in Brussels. The EU Global Strategy, 30th June 2016, issued exactly one week after the referendum, contains the right of the EU’s military “to act autonomously (of NATO) if and when necessary”. It will need this, because, as you should know, Lisbon Treaty Article 42 commits member states to the defence of a member under attack. So if Ukraine is still under attack when it joins the EU, it will be the EU which is at war with Russia, not NATO. The defence of Ukraine doesn’t trigger the NATO charter. On 19th February 2019 Federica Mogherini told an audience in Hamburg: “... all the way through the security spectrum, up to the military operations, because not so many know that the European Union has seventeen deployed missions and operations around the world. So, together, we are already a unique global security provider.” I checked this figure recently. It now stands at twenty-one.

This is taken from the EU’s CSDP website: “The two-part MILEX 23 exercise commenced on 18 September and concluded on 22 October. The first part of this intense period was a 3-week planning phase by the MPCC in Brussels. In part two, this culminated in the EU’s first ever live military exercise from 16 - 22 October in Rota Naval Base, Cadiz, Spain. During Part 2, an EU Battlegroup-sized force carried out the Operational Plan developed by the MPCC in Part 1. Overall, 19 Member States contributed to MILEX 23.” (CSDP = Common Security and Defence Policy. MPCC = Military Planning and Conduct Capability). 3. Reckless EU expansionism across Eastern Europe - widely known and reported on, including Albania (hotbed of gangsterism and corruption), Serbia and Montenegro (both traditional allies of Russia), Moldova (part of it coveted by Russia), Ukraine (currently at war with Russia), Turkey (instantly the largest, most populous and poorest country in the EU upon joining) and several others, all of which will bring nothing but a begging bowl to the EU’s table. Oh, except for Ukraine, because, as above, Lisbon Treaty Article 42 commits member states to the military aid of a member under attack. So if Ukraine is still at war upon its accession the EU will be at war with Russia. 4. Unfettered migration into Europe from North Africa and the Middle East (the free movement of people was a secret part of the Euro-Mediterranean Partnership, in effect since 2010, and signed between the EU and Morocco, Algeria, Tunisia, Egypt, Jordan, Israel, the Palestine Authority, Lebanon, Syria and Turkey). “Eurocrats do not consider (migration) to be a problem, but rather as a project”: Fabrice Leggeri, former Director of the European Border and Coastguard Agency (Frontex).

    Brexit was expensive and painful. Companies that were engaged in UK/EU trade had to adapt and those that couldnt went bankrupt. New border infrastructure had to be build and payed for and additional customs officers had to be trained. Years of negotiations took a lot of effort and even distracted the partaking diplomats (maybe so much that the russian invasion of Ukraine was made easier). And we didnt even have a vote in it. But now those costs have materialized and had to be paid and have been paid. And we can look at the results and at the positive parts: No more UK meddling in EU affairs - the constant nagging "we want more or we veto" is gone. No more adamant opposition to EU security development (one wonders if the UK blocked that because of the amount of russian donations they received) No more UK spying on their EU "partners" for the USA No more continous demands for opt-outs (or we leave!) No more non-euro country meddling in our currency (just look at what they - Lizz Truss - did to their own) Finaly no more Farage in our EP - that alone is worth a lot.

    Is taking back your grip on border control and political stance matters that much for the UK economy? I would challenge all those improvident and brazen statements made by UK leaders in 2016. EU funding and subsidies were trimmed and what is left is an unholy mess of a crumbling economy and wonky NHS. The EU definitely has insurmountable issues with immigration and economics but they are better off having a comprehensive collective solution to suit each member state's needs. Nothing is perfect but we should opt for the better. The UK has gone down hill because of choosing the worse scenario.

    Yes, I think it's genuine, at least to some degree. Try if you can to look at Brexit from a racist point of view. Yes, the immigration from continental Europe to the UK has dropped significantly because of Brexit. But the total number of immigrants has skyrocketted because the UK is no longer part of EU's coordinated immigration controls. To make matters worse (from a racist POW, remember) the immigrants they get now are even less desireable to them than the East/Central Europeans who used to come to England for a job. Not all right-wing extremists are blithering idiots and many of them now realise that even though they are against EU in principle, they have to recognise it as the lesser of two evils.

Euroscepticism in EU member countries is a whole different thing from going down the Brexit road and throwing out the baby with the bathwater.

If you read and listen to the statements of these politicians in their own national media they are often very different from the interpretations extracted from them and published in UK MSM.

    I'm sure deep down she would like that. Luckily french voters saw through her lies and blocked her from taking control. In the end, the benefits of the EU are obvious. Fascists can lie all they want but if people see the tangible benefits then it's very difficult. In the UK it was less of an uphill battle since the media never said a single positive word about the EU since joining it. Which is also why after the brexit for the most popular Google search in the UK was "what does the EU do?"

    Even with a Labour government, don't let them get in (for the 2nd time). They still don't understand that the EU is more than just only economics. Almost every vid (from the UK) on the subject wheter or not to rejoin is focused on ecomics. They neglect the deeper lying motives to come together (union fait la force). Especially now with Russia trying to exert its dominance in Eastern Europe & the Baltics once again. There is enough problems with certain EU countries & (political) parties on this issue. We don't need more liairs & quizlings. Remember there are enough Russian agents & stooges within the House of Commons and the House of Lords. London became a financial centre also with lots of illgotten money from Russia. And like mentioned earlier they have even bought their way into the legislative chambers of the UK. The only goal & purpose of brexshit was to get rid of strict EU rules on the financial markets. A goal that was not only propagated by the tories (cons seems more appropriate to me) but also by most part of the UK media and establishment. The selfcentred English, who still didn't & don't come to terms with the downfall & loss of their pink empire, are now complaining about the results of brexshit. Most common is the argument that only 52% of the UK population voted to leave. What did the 48% do who wanted to remain? Can they really say they did their utmost to prevent brexshit or to educate the population? I know that some politicians did really try (John Major, Lord Hesseltine, Chris Bryant just to name a couple of them). But they were a few, what did the rest do? Also, sorry Scotland you couldn't get the deal N-I has. Saor Alba. Lets not forget the verbal & physical attacks on foreigners in the wake of brexshit. Lets not forget how the UK government had the nerve to treat EU negotiators like .....garbage, and stepped over every diplomatic conventions and keep insulting for domestic purposes. Let's not forget how they consider themselves thus high & mighty, that they didn't even bother to prepare for the exit itself or the negotiations leading up to exit. (David Davis & companions without any papers in front of them.) Let's also not forget how David Cameron whistling a happy tune after resigning his post. Let's tell those brexshiters that BREXIT MEANS BREXIT (PM Theresa May) or, when they can't stop whining WELCOME TO THE BREXIT, SIR (Dutch Custom officer on the 1st of January 2021).

    @@SJG-nr8uj EU Fiscal Union The EU fiscal union refers to the coordination of fiscal policies among member states. This includes rules and regulations governing budgetary policies to ensure economic stability and growth within the union. The most significant aspect is the Stability and Growth Pact, which sets limits on budget deficits and public debt levels. The fiscal union aims to prevent excessive deficits and encourage responsible fiscal behavior, which is crucial for the stability of the Eurozone. Positives: Promotes financial stability across member states. Prevents economic crises through coordinated fiscal policies. Encourages fiscal discipline and responsible spending. Challenges: Sovereignty concerns as national governments cede some control over their fiscal policies. Divergent economic conditions and needs among member states can make uniform policies difficult to implement. EU Economic Union The economic union in the EU is characterized by a single market that allows the free movement of goods, services, capital, and labor. This integration fosters economic growth, increases competitiveness, and provides consumers with a wider variety of goods and services at lower prices. The Economic and Monetary Union (EMU) further strengthens this integration by adopting a common currency, the Euro, among 20 of the member states. Positives: Enhances economic efficiency and growth through a larger, integrated market. Facilitates trade and investment among member states. Reduces transaction costs and currency exchange risks within the Eurozone. Challenges: Economic disparities between richer and poorer member states can lead to imbalances. The common currency limits individual countries' ability to respond to local economic shocks. EU Political Union The political union involves the harmonization of political and legal systems across member states to ensure the smooth functioning of the EU. This includes shared institutions such as the European Parliament, the European Commission, and the European Council, which play crucial roles in decision-making and governance. Positives: Promotes democratic values and the rule of law across Europe. Facilitates cooperation on common issues like climate change, security, and human rights. Strengthens the global political influence of the EU. Challenges: Balancing national sovereignty with collective decision-making can be complex. Diverse political cultures and priorities among member states require careful negotiation and compromise. Unification of Armed Forces under the European Council There are ongoing discussions about closer military cooperation and the potential unification of armed forces under the command of the European Council. This aims to enhance the EU's ability to respond to global security challenges independently. Positives: Enhances collective security and defense capabilities. Reduces redundancy and increases efficiency in military spending. Strengthens the EU's strategic autonomy and global defense role. Challenges: National sovereignty and differing military traditions pose integration challenges. Requires significant political will and investment from member states. Invitation of Member States Across Eastern Europe The EU's enlargement policy has seen the invitation and accession of several Eastern European countries, promoting stability, democracy, and economic development in the region. Positives: Strengthens the EU by expanding its market and influence. Promotes political and economic reforms in new member states. Fosters peace and stability in Eastern Europe. Challenges: Integration of economies with varying levels of development can be complex. Ensuring new members comply with EU standards and regulations. Migration into the EU from North Africa and the Middle East The EU faces significant migration flows from North Africa and the Middle East, driven by conflict, economic hardship, and persecution. Managing this migration is a complex issue with both positive aspects and challenges. Positives: Migrants contribute to the labor market and help address demographic challenges in aging EU societies. Enhances cultural diversity and enriches the social fabric of member states. Humanitarian response upholds EU values of solidarity and human rights. Challenges: Strain on social services and infrastructure in receiving countries. Integration and social cohesion issues, including potential rise in xenophobia and cultural tensions. Need for a coordinated and fair asylum policy across member states. In summary, while the EU's efforts in fiscal, economic, and political integration, military cooperation, enlargement, and migration management present challenges, they also offer significant benefits. By fostering stability, growth, and cooperation, the EU continues to strive toward a more unified and prosperous Europe.

It’s a big world out there and while I miss many things about EU membership personally, I have pleased that the UK can go it’s own way and any decisions made by the UK government can be held to account by the people who directly elected them.

We need to take back our country on all levels, become truly independent & equalise tariffs & obstacles put in place by the EU. It is beyond belief we paid a huge sum to be penalised, restrict imports & build on our own manufacturing extending it in areas like microchips, fertilisers & other products in demand.

    Actually difficult to understand how the British are so unaware of their own country's interaction with and roots in the European continent. As if the modern British population and language was a population arriving from Mars. The language is a total mish-mash really recent language out of European languages. Should they give back the borrowed words from French they would loose 30% of their vocabulary. 500 most used words daily are from Old Norse, -oh no, not only from the Vikings, but also from the time 500 years earlier when the Romans left a vacuum and Jutes arrived together with the Angles and Saxons from the continent. English is certainly not the original Celtic language..... English is a mix of the Continentals arriving. Get it, Brits. You blame that the Vikings attacked you, but you yourself attacked and plundered large parts of the world afterwards. Now you don't have that income. You are a little normal country. We might use English internationally instead of the earlier constructed efforts like Volapük and Esperanto, but an Empire you are not and you are now left to prove your value.

Real English comfort food is Kippers and Turnips.. get rid of those "international" food stores, its anti UK, like burger joints that serve Beef pattys, and Russet potatos grown in Ireland! Make UK greath again, only serve sheap pattys in burger joints.. make it a law!

    Popular! Who's the current rotating president? And who's he cosying up to? How are Meloni and LePen going to get on with the EU going forward? The EU isn't the cosy place it was in 2016.Its going to change, we're better off out of it. And we won't rejoin, that's a pipe dream.

    Brexit Referendum Like a cup final between Celtic and Rangers but supercharged. The build up to the Brexit vote throwing insults at each other. Brexiteers cleaned up with whit and humour. Excitement of election day like the cup final. Brexiteers --- Celebrate that night when the result is announced The following day nobody really cares. Due to trade agreements and supply chains Brexit had never been a realistic option. However the Brexit referendum had been an antiestablishment vote. Personally I would describe Brexit as an almighty head rush and enjoyed every second of it. Another Brexit Referendum? Fantastic like a cup final the following year with the same teams. More insults to throw at each other. Enjoy the build up to election day. Celebrate winning that night. Again the following day nobody really cares. The Brexit result did raise valid issues about an electorate who feel alienated by the political establishment and marginalised. Also left wing lawyers making vast sums of money fighting deportation orders of convicted serious offenders remains a controversial issue. Many other valid points raised during the Brexit referendum but the result itself had been on a parallel with wining a cup final. Forget about Celtic Rangers rivalry Brexit eclipsed that for an almighty head rush. Comments welcome

    "Everyone" hardly. Are you the usual monolingual Brit who reads what the UK MSM tells him these people are saying or do you acess their statements in their own languages.? Le Pen, Meloni, Vox in Spain and even Orban don't want to leave the EU. They want the political leverage to influence and, if possible, make the changes they would like to EU rules and policies. None of them is about to set up trade barriers between their own countries and their biggest and nearest export markets. No country in its right mind would. Ooops sorry the UK did just that.😀😀

    So Junker answered today that Great Britain can come back into the EU. A really nice gesture that has a lot to it. Junker said it bluntly as a receipt from Great Britain for Farage and Co. as to what they can expect from the EU in the future, nothing for now. In 100-200 years it will say everything, Great Britain will stay out forever! This should also be a reckoning for de Gaulle's statement at the time! Labour has been the driving anti-EU force in Great Britain since the 1970s! You can imagine what antipathy the politicians in the EU Parliament have towards Great Britain!

We were right to leave the eu and join RCEP. Also the pound is stronger than the Euro and indeed stronger than the USD since brexit. Also the Turing Scheme is far superior to Erasmus.

    The bottom line is that Brexit has made the EU poorer and weaker on the world stage. That's what happens when you lose your second strongest economy, second largest contributor and strongest military and soft power. True, it has brought the EU closer together, but only through fear. The EU's bullying of the UK has taken the fight out of a lot of the Independence movements in the EU - at least for the time being, but it has also shown the true colours. The UK is doing well outside the EU. Obviously the effects of 47 years of foreign interreference haven't all been resolved yet, but 3.5 years out we're making very good progress as you can tell by the fact that the Brussels Propaganda machine and their UK shills are still trying to convince us otherwise. A pity, because a better Brexit all round was possible.
