Cities from Europe eyeing spoils from brexit

Well i hope you'll be proud of yourself. Unemployed but proud.

I'll be just fine. As will my country.
We have never needed meddling unelected unaccountable european political lightweights to organise our affairs and we don't need them now.
We both want and need politicians that work for US as an Electorate and can be ousted by US as an Electorate if they don't perform. That is what we voted for and that is what we will get. And if you don't like that kind of answerable democracy then there is no shortage of places that can offer you alternatives.
Don't let the door hit your whining arse on the way out.

Honestly can you name one EU directive that affected your life in a negative way?
As the war criminal, Tony Blair, said, there was no decision he made that was affected in any way by the EU.
No, any problems/issues/bad decisions that have affected this country have been all been self-created.

Mass uncontrolled immigration.

One of the main challenges for any political group which wants to oppress it's citizens is that often the armed forces will not respond in the way needed as they will not kill the citizens they swore to defend.

A good way around this would be to have armed forces made up of people from lots of different nations and so when you have an uprising you want to suppress you do not need to send in an army made of citizens from that country you can just send it from an army made up of citizens from other countries.

Go the EU army!

Dutch peacekeepers remember Mladic, the general who humiliated them - Telegraph

he enduring memory Boudewijn Kok has of Srebrenica is the moment General Ratko Mladic stood by the roadside and gave him an ironic, mocking salute.
Mr Kok, then a 20-year-old corporal, was one of 400 blue-helmeted Dutch army peacekeepers who were driving away after abandoning 50,000 Muslim civilians they had sworn to protect.
Serb irregulars had shouldered the inadequate Dutch force aside and overrun the United Nations "safe haven" in the eastern Bosnian town; instead of fighting them, the young Dutchman surrendered along with his comrades, and then, in a episode of utter humiliation, helped the Serbs load Muslim refugees onto buses to be driven away on the orders of General Mladic.

Doomed probably or maybe not?
