I'm starting to believe the brexit might be a good thing for the EU.
-Britain has never really commited to the EU, rejecting the Euro and requiring identification before letting people from other EU countries enter their territory, even before any worries about refugees. Maybe not having a country like this be part of the EU isn't the worst thing that could happen.
-At the same time, they have had a disproportinate amount of influence on EU policy. Letting a country that is obviously not really interested to be a part of this organisation have so much say in it isn't a great arrangement.
-Reducing Britain's influence would also pretty directly reduce the influence the US holds over the EU as most of that comes from through Britain.
-If the EU doesn't have the strength to survive one of its members leaving after almost 60 years of existance in one form or another, then it probably wouldn't have made it anyway. If we do survive this, however, it we come out of this strengthened.
>I'm starting to believe the brexit might be a good thing for the EU.
There is already full lobbying ongoing to get eu jobs britons will lose.
They will become eu bitches after brexit - they will only pay, but don't have voice anymore.
Some Brits I know here are currently buttmad, because they can't even vote. They will be kicked out after Britons will exit schengen.
Tyler Green
As far as I heard Britain liberalized their steel and coal sector's. Let's not forget EU was originally steel and coal union. Further they have much more globaluzed economy, and they don't use bureaucracy or block thinking as courner stone of their policy. I'd say there better off without EU

You thought wrong bitch.
No more nationalism.
UNITED STATES OF EUROPE NOW.

Fuck the EU tbf

In 20 years Germany will be like 300% Black and UK only 75%

But what would we rule over when Eastern Europe is annexed by Russia? We need cheap workforce

>The world has not at all changed, steel and coal are still the lifeblood of the economy This kind of thinking lead to some British actually thinking they're still an influential empire.
Noah Thompson
Netherlands got trodden on by Britain across the entire globe, so your angst is understandable, as is your wish to be cucked by Germany in the hope of regaining some semblance of relevance.
Ryan Anderson
we occupied GB but you never occupied NL
Hunter Ross
A testament to your worthlessness more than anything else. The only thing of value you had was your trade, and we took it all.
Lucas Collins
Stop disparaging the Netherlands, you fucking low life paki
Elijah Gray
Stop bitching about friendly shitposting, you soulless husk
Connor Long
but we beat you in trade. Even without accounting for your much bigger population size, we export for 525 billion, whereas you export for 472.
Kayden Sanchez
what happend in 1968?
Lucas Williams
if I was english I'd be voting out as well. you get cucked by migrants and it must feel like you should have more of a say. Since you get to rule the UK why shouldn't you get to rule the EU
Scotland though gets a lot fewer migrants and better representation/more service per head from the EU
Ayden Davis
math is not your strength
Noah Adams
are those migrants really from EU countries?
Benjamin Hughes
yes and also outwith.
it's true that leaving the eu doesn't stop non eu immigrants coming here but does stop the non eu immigrants who only just arrived in germany and france recently from coming here as well.
Andrew Nguyen
About half of them are (~100,000 per month), the rest are from India and Arabia.
Hudson Brooks
Fuck the EU and bring back the EEC. Everybody happy.
Matthew Johnson
But actually refugees must apply for asylum in the country of arrival.
Isaiah Adams
ok, thats really alot. I think we wouldnt have the problem if there wasnt an EU enlargement east.
Juan Fisher
What do the Dutch make and export?

Or maybe the Euro was a shit idea that was horribly implemented? It's already ruined the lives of millions of people of an entire country after all. >At the same time, they have had a disproportinate amount of influence on EU policy. Letting a country that is obviously not really interested to be a part of this organisation have so much say in it isn't a great arrangement.
Maybe it's because they have the 3rd largest population?
>-Reducing Britain's influence would also pretty directly reduce the influence the US holds over the EU as most of that comes from through Britain.
Top jej, the EU will never stop being butt buddies with the US.
>-If the EU doesn't have the strength to survive one of its members leaving after almost 60 years of existance in one form or another, then it probably wouldn't have made it anyway. If we do survive this, however, it we come out of this strengthened.
Pretty much. Making it more than a trade agreement was a mistake.
Julian Long
>rejecting the Euro and requiring identification before letting people from other EU countries enter their territory, even before any worries about refugees.
These are all good things
Chase Evans
Define "arrival" because most "refugees" seem to think they don't "arrive" in a safe country until they get to Germany or Sweden, the two countries with open immigration policies. Once they automatically get their shiny new EU passport, they are free to hop on over to Britain for the benefits.
Ryder Jenkins
I honestly sometimes can't tell if this situation isn't because German autism and ordnung can't grasp the idea of someone abusing the system.
