Because they are Globalists and Federalists. They are Anti-Democrats, they want as many layers of technocracy as possible between the voting citizen and the "selected" individuals making the decisions. The EU is a great example of such a system to the point that the politicians elected by the public have very few powers and the power lies with the selected technocrats several layers above them. These people hate the nation state and the autonomy that such a system provides. They have no respect for Democracy, especially when "stupid" citizens vote the "wrong" way. Brexit was their worst nightmare, hence their attempts to overturn it by hook or by crook, and hence them still banging on about it 7 years after the vote. They are normally huge fans of the WEF.

candide Posted September 21, 2023 Share Posted September 21, 2023 The report is about a proposal for a redesign of the EU, in order to take into account the significant number of accession candidates -and also the differentiated attitude of current members towards further integration. The third circle is not particularly targeted at UK. In particular, it can be conveniently used as waiting position for accession countries.

Indeed, as the EU are rather belatedly finding out; France has just sent soldiers, helicopters and drones to its border with Italy to prevent the surge of migrants from entering France. Georgia Meloni has just said that she will not allow Italy to become the refugee camp of Europe. Africa is invading Europe, and the EU remains completely passive to the invasion.

Despite some tactical polling now showing support for rejoining, the people of the UK would never accept the new EU terms for rejoining once those terms were made clear before any referendum.

Interesting. Sorry you feel short changed. I don’t have any mates in France who are in anyway commented to immigration policies or diplomatic relations with the UK. I spent most of the summer dealing with the NHS, almost every single medical professional I came across was a foreigner, as were most of the support staff. The cost of providing accommodation to asylum claimants is directly related to the Government’s failure to clear asylum seekers and deport bogus asylum seekers (nobody is objecting to bogus asylum seekers being deported - the Government need to get on with it). Merkel dealt with Putin pushing refugees towards EU borders. As a general note, if you go off on another of your rants, I don’t owe you a response to all your ill informed nonsense.
