I suspect that the EU will have a relatively short lifespan. Whether the UK departure marks the beginning of the end is up for debate and history will tell.
I have the same suspicions as you Dex! have a good day!

What UK departure? For the foreseeable future you are still within the EU. And paying.
No signs of other countries wanting to exit.

The only winner in the remaining 27 is France. The rest of the member states are collateral damage.

Go work it out for yourself if you can.

You think Barnier, Parliament, Merkel and Varadkar are holding all the cards... ? Big mistake if you do

Boris represents the British people and the EU has forgotten that .

It's why they will be to blame!
Exactly. We have had 3.5 years of listening to the same old crap coming from the EU. They remind me of the "The computer, he says No". They have never had any interest in negotiating, just putting out a pretense of doing so.
I hope we can escape its vile clutches.

This is akin to a war without weapons.

Let's face it, Barnier, Juncker, Tusk and the rest of the unelected elites are a government without a country and just a glorified civil service. They won't think twice about how much this will cost the 27 if we leave without any trade deal in place with them. They will just walk away into the shadows and leave it to Von Der Leyen and her unelected mafia mob to blame everyone else. What can the 27 do about it ? Nothing - you can't get rid of these idiots.

Hi

They are effectively Civil Servants with all the decisions being made by the 27 Heads of State.

The Heads of State will protect the Single Market.

We can have a standard WTO Free Trade Deal, we will not get Canada +++, that simply does not exist.

Boris relies on the DUP, they are not for shifting even though NI voted Remain.

Intransigence and red lines on both sides.
