Speculation is rife, not only in Britain but above all in Europe, i.e. in the EU countries. Will GB quit the EU ?
In fact this would not be the first time ! The last time Britain "quit" it created EFTA, the EUROPEAN FREE TRADE AREA.
Why does Britain "perhaps" want to quit the EU and why would some countries in the EU be happier if Britain "may" or "would" quit ?
Britain has links with many countries which were former "possessions" and which are now more or less independent. However many have opted to remain in the Commonwealth. This is their "option", not their obligation !
The EU wants to establish a new "United States of Europe", the USE as opposed to the USA, a new Federal EU state. The real problem is that this takes time and none of the current, active politicians in the EU have the patience required.
They all want one EU Nation, with one EU currency and not to name it, the EURO, with a Centralised system of Government.
The real problem is that of the 27 countries in the EU, there are at least ten that have not adopted the EURO as their currency. With the current problems in the EUROZONE, can they be blamed, are they wrong ? Wrong to protect the interests of their countries and the interests of their citizens?
The EU has a big "EURO" problem. This must first be solved. Afterwards will come the other problems like the definition of the EU Constitution ! The right of all EU taxpayers to elect directly their Members of Parliament, just like as in the USA and in each EU state currently !
When one remembers that there are many EU Leaders who face re-elections in the very short term, current, urgent, ideas of a USE will certainly fade a little ...
David Cameron and his Ministers have time on their side !
