The EU is phooked...

[sinkov]

I think you are worrying about the wrong thing Mon Ami.

Last week we pledged £350B to help save our economy. If it all goes pear shaped we are without any sort of back up plan. No EU to help us out.

And Britain has been targeted by financiers from around the world. These people see the pound as a bad option in these times - they are putting their faith in the USD and Euro instead. The pound is sinking fast against both these currencies.

We will have to sort it out on our own...and it may turn out very bad for us indeed.

Careful what you wish for.

It's not just me and BT predicting the demise of the EU 59, the French are getting a bit twitchy as well. And well they might.

"French President Emmanuel Macron warned his fellow European Union leaders that the coronavirus outbreak risked undoing the bloc's central pillars such as its no-border zone if they failed to show solidarity in this crisis, a diplomat said. "What's at stake is the survival of the European project," he told the 26 other leaders in a conference call, according to a French diplomat. "The risk we are facing is the death of Schengen," Macron added, according to the same source."
