Angela Merkel 'to oust Jean-Claude Juncker'
The Telegraph ^ | 7/3/2016 | Peter Foster

Posted on 07/03/2016 8:53:07 AM PDT by Prospero

Angela Merkel could move to oust Europe’s federalist chief Jean-Claude Juncker 'within the next year', a Germany government minister has said, in a sign of deepening European divisions over how to respond to Britain’s Brexit vote.

The German chancellor’s frustration with the European Commission chief came as Europe split over whether to use the Brexit negotiations as a trigger to deepen European integration or take a more pragmatic approach to Britain as it heads for the exit door.

Junker’s a drunk. I have no problem with people enjoying their hooch, but when you’re going to be on the clock then follow the pilot rule: 12 hours bottle to throttle. All the more so when you’re responsible for an entire bloody continent.

The problem with the European Union is simple: it's not "federalist".

More then the previously homogeneous United States, Europe is a place of genetically related but very different people culturally, linguistically and politically.

Attempting to dictate from Brussels is the problem, and attempting to dictate from Berlin is death for that "union".

If there is to be any unity within "Europe", it will be a loose one, respecting thousands of years of history.

And one State letting in millions of Europe's traditional enemies and then nurturing and feeding them to become a permanent threat to all of them is not just death for the union, but the entire Continent.

The little STASI operative from the DDR needs to go back to her Physics studies, a place where her sterile view of the world is at least productive.

The same could be said of Washington DC.

Great Britain is going to be very happy with its decision to leave. The EU is a mess and getting messier by the day.

British voters did not want unaccountable globalist NWO bureaucrats in Brussels making onerous regulations and flooding illegals non-stop into their country, they wisely opted out,

Merkel is to blame for importing the raping Islamic hordes into Europe in the same way that the Obama creature is flooding the USA with them, this has been planned far in advance and is being implemented, millions have already invaded,

Hillary is to blame for opening up the floodgates that had warning tape all over it when she and creepy grifter blumemthal along with the MB schemed to get rid of Qaddafi,

The globalists NWO cabal better take notice, they greedily pushed too far too fast coming in via the back door to rob and pillage freedoms from the West, they kicked the bedroom doors too many times as they slipped in, the lights are coming on in the village,

He was ripping Van Rompuy, not Juncker.

Had the pleasure of watching that live in my hotel room in Paris. Walking out in the lobby that day you could see the shock on the French faces, they saw it live too.

I was grinning ear to ear, they couldn’t understand why.

God I love Farage. A man without fear.

May be the euroweenies could use the federal government system that work for us for over 120 years until we changed it with the 17th Amendment: a lower house of representatives who are elected in local districts every 2 years, 2 senators per country that are elected by their respective country's Parliament every 6 years, and a directly elected president with a term of 4 years with a maximum of 2 terms.

When Cameron was forced to call the BREXIT referendum, he knew his best chance was to get the EU defacto Administrator, Jean-Claude Juncker, to ease-up on the petty bureaucratic dictats that was giving Britain reason to separate. Junker, knew that any concessions to Britain would give license to the other seperationists in Europe, and in strong belief that Britain would still vote to remain with no changes, said NEIN! Oops!
