Legitimate quotes from EU officials from Brussels are not hoaxes. But the fact that it WILL happen is something very likely to happen because Brussels fucked the pooch when it came to the immigrants.
It's all just a sign that the EU really has no UK interests when it comes to the relationship. They expect us to shut up and deal with their rules, there is literally no give and take.
Did I say wanting a Brexit is synonymous with blaming EU? Nope. Did I say it's all Brexit supporters? Nope. But there are many that do so. Hell, earlier in the thread we had people blaming EU for UK strict anti-tabacco regulations when it was UK going way ahead of what the EU directive required.
considering google satellite providing free, super fast internet for all EU members by 2030...leaving now seems like not that great of an idea.
You are pretty much making my point for me. UK wanted a trading union. Thats why the original people that pushed for the UK to join, are now the people leading the camp to leave it. Because the EU is not only a trading union, it really brings nothing to the UK in general that it could not have on its own. Same reason why Mexico and Canada dont need to have anything but a trading Union with the USA, it has no benefit being more the a trading union. Giving up their own federal government, federal banks and federal military serves no purpose.
Except EEC was already heavily leaning towards political zone when UK joined. And they were one of the champions of making it even more political after they joined, no one forced them to push for the Single European act or to sign the Maastrich Treaty. They did both willingly. And yup, EU making pro-consumer and pro-worker laws that UK fought against have nothing but bad impacts on the UK /s
The EU process is democratic and UK has the same say as the others. They even vote in favor of almost all the legislation.
yup ex City of London commercial banker Nigel Farage is a real working class hero of the non-elite
as is millionaire Boris Johnson who eventually decided to back leaving after working out it gave him the best chance of being the UKs next prime minister without having to win an election
