What I find interesting is the number of people on this forum who predicted that Britain's leaving would lead to the break up of the EU, yet from afar the opposite seems to have occurred and the EU appears more united than ever.
Not kidding. We, the UK government, were led to believe that the majority of our citizens wanted to leave the EU. As this vote is void, we invoked article 50 on erroneous grounds. So we revoke article 50.
Before brexit there was a number of countries where similar critics on the EU were heard. After brexit referendum information became available on benefits and advantages of EU membership. Too late to be of use for british voters (they had already made their choice without that information), but in other EU countries this information was sufficient to subdue critics on the EU. What it especially made clear is that we need one another, despite our differences.
