What exactly are the “nice things” which the EU intends to take with them? The art?
I’m sorry, but the whole interview comes across like some twelve-year-old kid who was angry over something juvenile.
If the UK can leave the EU and not suffer trade and other consequences, other countries will leave and the union will be finished.
But if the EU punishes the UK too much, it punishes itself since the UK is a large trading partner.
The EU is screwed and its time as a force is coming to an end. The realization is sinking in that the group in Brussels does not act in the best interests of the member nations. The sooner it is gone the better for Europe.
