I think that's precisely what happened. Many Germans realised that voting CDU would usher in a period of change, and they don't want that.
The Germans have a huge problem of high unemployment; if reforms are scrapped, it will only get worse. The country is going to turn in on itself.
Blair is likely to keep Germany at arm's length; it is definitely time for Britain to leave the EU. I want no part of this. I am not picking up the tab when this implodes.

What do you mean?
I've always thought that Britain has held onto a healthy skepticism regarding the EU. And you're right, it is time to withdraw. Good luck with this...
