Without France and the UK. The EU can't survive.
The EU is anti-democratic in its drive to stop any other country from having a referendum. because it knows other countries will vote OUT. Bringing to a halt the bureaucratics drive to rule Europe from the centre.

i want to see your face when you will realize in 3 or 4 years what will happen with UK.
i will not say they will die from hunger but they will lose all prosperity and it is quite logic that they will.
because NOBODY will order anything from them (exept they know that the pounds value will drop - and than they pay less than then value is).
and britains can not afford to buy anything from outside because the pound will be weaker than ever.

Will the EU block EU countries selling to the UK to punish the UK? This will result in millions of EU citizens losing their jobs and millions of EUcitizens in the UK having to return home or like me being forced to apply for a residence permit.

the EU is not perfect - i never said that - but it is the most senseful union of countries where nearly EVERY important good have natural ressources and can be traded from one to the other without the risk of currency changes.
you only see a EU now what is less than 20 years old. if you would be able to see the big vision you would understand HOW nessecary it is to survive.

So why isn't the EU taking steps to make itself better for the majority of EU citizens?
The only good thing about the EU is the free trade agreement between nations. Unfortunately, they have expanded that to take away the ability of nations to strike trade deals on their own. now it takes up to 9 years to get a trade deal decided that suits no one as it has to fit the needs of nations like Greece and Germany. It's handling of the debt crisis, globalisation, migration is pitiful and making the lives of ordinary Europeans worse.

i really hope that macron will win this election and so far things look good for him - even when nobody knew his name 1 year ago.
he is fresh, young, intelligent and not jailed in a corner of his brain as you guys are or trump is.

He offers more spending and no way to reduce the need to spend. So just like every other politician who came before him.
The West desperately needs to cut back on the migration of low skilled and low paid people, it needs to slow down the haemorrhaging of jobs to the Third World. These two measures will bring back jobs and raise wages, therefore slowing down on the need for the State to subsidise people. At the moment it's doing the opposite and the growing debts are a testament to the failure of politicians. Including those in the EU.
just one instance that shows why the EU needs to spend money on benefits.
