Talk about a bunch of drama queens. Kick the UK out if you want them gone, that way Johnson can get on with things. World leaders too arrogant and shortsighted to realize that once one of the worlds strongest economies is no longer there to prop up their scheme, it’ll start to sink. Too arrogant and shortsighted to see that if/when Brexit happens and the UK signs a bi-lateral trade deal with the US, they’ll be left out in the cold and their union will start to crumble.

If President Trump is re-elected the EU is screwed.

The thing is that the other 27 CAN’T legally kick them out. The one holding the keys is the UK.

The UK decided on March 2017 that it would leave on March 31, 2019. The UK decided twice to ask for a delay.

Now the exit date is October 31. The other 27 can’t tell them to leave before that. They can’t tell them no to an extension, but then they would get the blame for the post-Brexit crash, which they don’t want

Note that Johnson said that a post-Brexit trade deal with the USA would take years.
