If you have trouble with English you need to do something about it.

She has in the past spoken of her aim of a “United States of*Europe*– along the lines of federal states like Switzerland, Germany or the US”, and has backed a future European army or “army of Europeans”.

On Brexit, she has fully supported the commission’s position on the Northern Irish backstop, and criticised the “hollow promises” of those who campaigned for the UK to leave the EU.

Boris may find her a bit too much to chew.
Now, if you had said Theresa May, I may well have agreed with you. Boris? he will chew her and spit her out! She can expect no mercy.

Reds under the bed eh????
Aahh, but those brexiteers who you believe still live in the 50's, have certainly given you and the corrupt EU the long awaited kick in the teeth all the same.

You will never win. You mess with Babyboomers at your peril.

(Denial is necessary if the acceptation of the truth causes too much secondary damage. This is a normal and sometimes even a physical process. The reality is too difficult to absorb. Only at a later stage does reality penetrate and the awareness of the new reality comes.
This process will often take place. You do not want others to know that you have made a wrong choice. It's hard to go back on your paces. You go on too long, often under pressure from the "social" environment.)
I'm sure you're reading that from a script Solascch.

Aahh, I see you've managed to get out of your rocking chair again, at least it would appear that you understood what I was getting at, which is more than bread seems to be able to do.
