England should feel the consequences for voting to leave the EU.

50. Well, that was an.... interesting? post

I suppose what made me think you don't support the people of the UK choosing their own path might have been when you called for the EU and US to join together in crushing the UK and treating them worse than child traffickers, slavers, human rights abusers, murderers and rapists for having the audacity to want to pursue their own sovereignty.

IMO, you have a very flawed understanding of the UK, the EU and geopolitics.

Based on your post and perspectives, I can see we are not going to be able to have any sort of productive dialogue, so I'm not going to try beyond simply saying that the fundamental issue that you are missing is that the EU MUST offer value to member nations. Nobody is beholden to remain in the EU. The UK leaving is evidence of what happens when people feel like they are getting the short end of the stick. Your approach is like a boss with unhappy workers deciding that he's going to take any complainers out back and beat them with a stick until they learn to be happy.

Life doesn't work that way. Politics doesn't work that way. Unions of any kind don't work that way. The fact that people worry about other nations also wanting to leave proves that what the EU is offering isn't working. There really is no need for a central government and subservience to unelected technocrats just to be a member of a trade and travel union. The currency union portion of the EU is a failure. The EU needs to do some soul searching. The UK told the EU what they want, and the EU said no. The UK took a perfectly reasonable response.
