  1.  @emmy9345  The Issue with that is the UK is one of only three countries able to globaly mount offnesives. The other two being the USA, and France (only for short periods, or limited numbers in France's case). The problem is What Europe doesn't need is a country with Global commitments and it's own more powerful agenda, which as we proved with the EU debacle, didn't always match those of the UK. The UK is only one of three countries (the same three countries as I mentioned earlier) who have true global reach, and global soft power. Being the main ally of an emerging Japan doesn't sit well with America, and the EU, that is where Britian is headed, and the Uk already has more influence in Japan than the USA has ever had. What Britiain doesn't need is paying for countries that refuse to meet their EU commitments, and being told by at best a small minded set of unelected bureaucrats what we can or cannot do on our own. this has become very apparent since Brexit, Brussles thinks it controls what Britian can, or should do when in reality it has had it's wings clipped mightily by little Britain. I say this as a person with a foot in both Germany, and England, being of German/English parents. Britian does lead where Europe follows, that has become very obvious in the last three years. The edited bit.. Also Britian is already a part of a Europe wide set of forces, it is known as NATO, another smaller EU army is not the way to go!

  2. NO it is the ploy to lead NATO, it has nothing to do with a European force.

  4.  @emmy9345  Actually we share more wirth jap[an than with any country in Europe other than France, and Germany (as those two are just begining to learn) NATO grew from a British French mutual defence alliance from after WW2 for example.
