The EU Will Get What It Is Long Overdue !

The EU Is Heading For a Good Kick Up The Backside,

Boy, Do They Deserve It !!!

For Starters, They not only have Brexit on the agenda, They are absolutely petrified of the forthcoming EU Elections, because of the risk that their cosy club, with all its present day perks, will be no more.

They know full well that extending Article 50 would be like handing a grenade to the ever-growing EU Populist parties in the run-up to the European Elections in May 2019.
These parties would not hesitate in making Brexit their “National Sovereignty” mantra, accusing the EU of - “Even when you vote to leave, they won’t let you”.

The EU Parliament must also be bricking it at the knowledge that many of the EU countries Populist parties are putting forward their candidates with much gusto, safe in the knowledge that strong wins the likely outcome, If they can get 53% of votes, there is even the danger that the EU itself will cease to exist as we all know it. (A wonderful thought).as the Commission is over-run by Right-Wing and Anti-Establishment politicians.

Let’s face it, we have Britain leaving, but being fought all the way by the EU. The anti-EU parties would love us to be forced into extending Article 50 so they can champion us as a cause of accusing the EU of acting like a dictatorship.

So as I see it, We have the Big beasts, Germany, France and the Netherlands, as well as Austria, fighting for ever more integration,but having to contend with large gains from Nationalist parties in their own countries, even though so far successful in holding them off from power, while countries such as Finland,Sweden,Denmark,Hungary,Greece,Poland,Bulga ria, Slovakia and the Czech Republic have seen a significant rise in anti-EU parties. Oh, add to that, even tiny Cyprus!

With the distinct prospect of many wins for these parties in May 19, It looks as though the EU dream is quickly turning to Dust! What do you think?

It's been clear for a while TBH. Talk to people when you go abroad and you find that like us, they love Europe and the various peoples of the individual countries of Europe, but they hate the EU.

Unfortunate the evidence does not support your speculation.

It seems the rather than empower popularists and nationalists to want to leave they have now set their sight on reforming the EU. In light of Brexit that may now be an easier proposition but who knowd

The EU cannot be reformed. An expensive mess, poorly structured with too many members.

Not at all, as it’s data from a regular poll that is eminently provable as opposed to the wild speculation of the OP and other others posting in this thread l

Given the disarray of our parliament and the divisiveness of Brexit it’s no wonder the polls are what they are
