  1. I think we already knew it wasn't about moving closer to Europe, for that, we'll need a new government that doesn't involve the Tories. What this is really about, is the UK not being isolated in Europe, it's all well and good saying they don't want to move closer to Europe but the reality is, if the UK was one of the few countries in Europe that wasn't involved, it would isolate the UK in Europe and around the world more, basically, the UK couldn't afford to be one of the few left out when the EU countries and most of the none EU countries were there. In any case, depending on what side of Brexit you sit on, it could be seen as good or bad news, good news in the sense that if the EU makes this work, it's very likely going to pull more countries that are not in the EU, closer to the EU orbit and also likely to speed up the process of EU membership for many of them, after all, a lot of countries want to join the EU but some have got fed up with waiting, this middle grown could give them hope to speed up reforms to join the EU sooner rather than later and that is bad news if you're a Brexiteer, because the more countries that join the EU, the more isolated and less relevant the UK becomes and very likely will push a future UK government to either have much closer ties with the EU or ask for EU membership. The biggest threat to Brexiteers is the EU being around whiles the UK is not in it and the EU continuing to expand because regardless of all the arrogance of going it alone, the more countries that join the EU, will leave the UK more isolated in Europe and will more than likely push the US and other international partners to want to have closer relations with the EU over the UK. In any case, it's early days and we don't know what this European Community could morph into, but don't kid ourselves, the Tories are not happy about this as it means more Europe which the Tories on Brexit have been fighting to be the opposite of that. So read between the lines guys, this is the Tories going there to scope it out and see what other countries that are not in the EU think about this European community as they know it could be a threat to the Brexit movement if the EU makes this work as a springboard for other countries wanting to join the EU. Still, it's funny the Brexiteers can't read between the lines in what's going on and I've got to say, it's a master-stroke move from Macron, but then, the EU has always been a few steps ahead of the Brexiteers, just look at Brexit, Brexiteers keep seeing victories where there is none and the end result is the mess the UK is in right now, so keep digging Brexiteers, you're just making it worse for the UK and yourself.
