Voters in France, Italy and the Netherlands are demanding their own votes on European Union membership and the euro, as the continent faces a “contagion” of referendums.
EU leaders fear a string of copycat polls could tear the organisation apart, as leaders come under pressure to emulate David Cameron and hold votes.
It came as German business leaders handed a considerable boost to the Leave campaign by saying it would be “very, very foolish” to deny the UK a free trade deal after Brexit.
Markus Kerber, the head of the BDI, which represents German industry, said that 1970s-style trade barriers would result in job losses in Germany.
“Imposing trade barriers, imposing protectionist measures between our two countries – or between the two political centres, the European Union on the one hand and the UK on the other – would be a very, very foolish thing in the 21st century.”

Correction: Cameron resigned, too!!!!
This is such fantastic news! I hope Italy is next with the rest to follow!
It would be like the clin ton kiss of death when he went state to state when bush 43 was running!
Of course, common sense will prevail.
Would be the best thing to happen for Western Civilization since the end of the Cold War.
Not as good as the utter defeat of political islam, but the next best thing.
It may be quick, first the countries whos cultures actually have work ethics are getting tired of subsidizing layabout cultures like Greexico. Then with astronomical crime rates from non stop forced settling of muslims in to previous peaceful towns and villages are sooner or later going to cause conflagarations. Unlike ofher cultures who burn cities, caucasions burn continents when they get pissed off
Wrong. The Greeks have never voted to leave the EU. The Germans are not keeping them in the EU.
Freedom is infectious.
EU members will fall like dominoes. Bet the rent.
I won't put a import tax on your perfume, you won't put a import tax on my brocades.
That works.
I will tax none of your shoddy goods that you will dump on my markets until you have driven all my native industries out of business?
That tends not to work.
“Free trade wasn’t supposed to mean third world countries get to cheat and use slave labor and we shut up. That was never the deal.”
That was the deal all along. They just lied to you about it. That’s all.

Frau Merkel has single-handedly destroyed the Fifth Reich.
Greece actually voted to give their govt the ability to threaten to leave as a negotiation tactic but Greece had a poor hand and that bluff failed. But add in Greece to the list of countries for which membership in the EU no longer makes sense.

I am not a Catholic but I always had a sympathy for Catholisism because I felt that the Catholics kept their faith - that is until the present Pope. Terrible. We do not need more political correctness and lax morals.
Yes it is BigGirl.
I don't know if you got to see his Press Conference this a.m. in regards to the opening of the latest Trump Golf Course. He did the obligatory thanks to all those that made the transformation a reality, how nice it was, thanked his kids and so much more including his moms roots in Scotland, and it was sincere not fluff....
However when he got into the politics he got into the reality of the new paradigm and opened the door for a real trade deal with England once he gets in office and sooooo much more.
Yes it is a preview of a Post Obama world, the Adults will be in charge again. I just happened to see it almost a year ago and I knew it would be big....
Go here, and and post # 171: http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/news/3318182/posts?page=170#170
The EU is not only going to break up, it’s going to explode.

Thanks for not using that much over used and abused word, “implode”.
One could argue this is a necessary FIRST STEP to the defeat of Political Islam.
