France, Italy...to name two...
I believe that Sweden may follow suit and maybe even Spain. The leftists and hardcore Open Borders people like Workers World will be upset.
Greece and Portugal.
I think France is one.
With the UK gone, if France follows, I’d expect Germany to follow suit. They can’t be the only financial player in the EU.
But that’s just MHO
Any other country that is being used to pull the weight of the slackers in the EU...
They all should. Poor Portugal will probably be the last country and will no longer be bailed out - they’ll go bankrupt.
I don't know whether to take it seriously, or if there is popular support. I suspect there will be a "wait and see" attitude for a while, to see how the UK fares.
If the UK rebounds and their economy out-performs the EU for a sustained period, I think the EU will be toast -- or at least reduced to a handful of former third-world countries.
Yeah, I’ve read Greece is one. That one baffles me. As they are on the teet of Europe for survival.
Unlike the Brits, they have a good economic reason -- ITExit would allow to write off the debts that are damaging and eventually not sustainable. Check Spengler's comments too: http://atimes.com/2016/06/britain-bests-brussels/
And when the go bankrupt, it will be a great, inexpensive, vacation spot.
They’re all rumbling. Poland, France, Italy, Germany...
Funny way to run out of other people's money.
Poland is calling on the EU leadership to please be rational and to negotiate an agreement that reflects Europe as it is, not as Brussels wishes it is, and they are of course being utterly ignored.
Greece will have an almost impossible task... how do you stand up a currency when you have greater than 200% debt to GDP and negative GDP growth? No one knows...
They would have already been kicked out if Europe had an answer to that problem.
Many Texans are considering it too.
All a Greek had to do was buy gold from time to time and he had it made.
The drachma was worthless in the rest of Europe, but who cares about that? Why would someone want to leave a paradise like Greece to go to a place like England?
Austria is possible to. Their right lost a close election a few weeks ago.
This is the beginning of a tidal wave. It scares me a little bit.
Be careful what you wish for.
Still waiting to see if the EU responds to secession the way the US once did.
The logistics are different, but human nature is the same.
Netherlands will probably be the next referendum.
It should have a domino effect.
