Watch the deals being cut and for the remaining EU members neutering Brussels. I'm sure Britain will demand much to be associated with this organization.

END OF THE EU? Germany warns FIVE more countries could leave Europe after Brexit

FIVE European countries may seek to follow Britain’s lead in leaving the EU in a Brexit domino effect, Germany has warned.

France, the Netherlands, Austria, Finland and Hungary could leave.

Front National leader Marine Le Pen has pledged to hold a French referendum if she emerges victorious in next year's presidential elections.

While for the past two months a Nexit has been on the cards after Dutch voters overwhelmingly rejected a Ukraine-European Union treaty

Details of Berlin's concerns were outlined in a finance ministry strategy document.

Angela Merkel's country faces having to pay an extra £2.44billion a year to the annual EU budget once Britain has left.

Fears for the future of the EU have prompted German government officials to propose that Britain is offered “constructive exit negotiations”.

The aim is of making the UK an “associated partner country” of the EU, according to German newspaper Die Welt today.

After yesterday's referendum, here is a look at what will happen immediately following the historic vote for Britain to leave the EU.

The Government will need to create new British legislation as EU laws

Hungarian Prime Minister, Viktor Orban, warned that Europe needs to change its ways.

“Brussels must hear the voice of the people, this is the biggest lesson from this decision," he told public radio.

“But Europe is strong only if it can give answers to major issues such as immigration that would strengthen Europe itself and not weaken it. The EU failed to give these answers."

Another critic of the EU, the leader of Poland's ruling party, said that the UK referendum result shows the need for reform of the EU.

“The conclusion is obvious. We need a new European treaty," said Jaroslaw Kaczynski, who heads the Law and Justice party.

“We need a positive reaction, and not persistent movement in the same direction, a direction which has led to crisis," he added.

Tensions are rising across the EU, with Denmark, France, Italy, the Netherlands, and Sweden all facing demands for referendums over Europe.

In a statement, German Chancellor Angela Merkel said: "There is no point beating about the bush: today is a watershed for Europe, it is a watershed for the European unification process."

Great Britain - Great Britain - Great Britain... :72: :72:

I remember that there used to be some sort of group like that... It had something to do with London, didn't it?

I'll have to ask my cousin in Glasgow if he remembers anything about it... Posted Image

Do you really think Britain is going to walk away, scott free, with no consequences? The pound just dropped 10%, making foreign goods that much more epensive. They are looking at a 5 to 10% inflation rise because of it, again cutting the average joes's buying power.

Who is this supposed to help? Ah yes freedom. The poor working stiffs in Britain will have the freedom to piss on the sidewalk and sleep under the overpass.

Sooner or later, the right is going to ruin it for every one.

Except of course, the ultra wealthy whom always seem to rise above such low class problems!

The ultra wealthy are the ones who are supporting Thunder Thighs. Ever wonder why?

But the subject is Great Britain and how smart they are for getting out of the repressive EU.
