    So, it looks like Brexit will happen, and there is a good chance of no deal brexit happening, which I think will give The UK the best chances to negotiate a good deal.

    Can’t wait to congratulate British with their new independence in October!

    You may be surprised to get a "like" from me on your OP, but I also congratulate the citizens of Great Britain on the election of a new PM who is going to reassert the independence of their nation from the smothering dominance and dictatorial policies of the EU.

    There is an inherent 'wisdom' in the British, and although it 'waxes and wanes' considerably, we've seen it early-on in matters like the keeping its own currency -- the Pound Sterling! Now it appears that they're kicking all this 'political-correctness', and guilt-ridden 'pan-Europa' bullshit to the curb!

    Lots of Europeans are completely sick to death at the mandated "inclusiveness" and "diversity" dictated by their puppet-rulers, but the British appear to actually be DOING something about it! Is it surprising to hear this from one you derided as being a Russia-loving "Boris"...(?). :nana:

    What started as an economic union turned into a bloated, incompetent empire. It was easy to see coming.

    Best news for the EU. Johnson is an idiot. The UK is ripped apart. Since the vote was close to 50/50, Johnson is the best thing that could have happened for the EU.

    Johnsons problem is his pretty shallow intellect. They ont get independence. They become a US colony without voting rights and have zero acces to the EU. Not even their aircrafts will fly over EU airspace, Airbus already said they will close down in the UK and London also loses toe ability to do stock exchange business for the EU market.

    What we will see is an economic collapse, Johnson getting hunted out of office and a most likely break off from Northern Ireland and Scotland.

    When the second largest economy by GDP leaves your block - you will feel real pain. That’s the leverage U.K. has over EU that May was afraid to use. Johnson can do nothing and wait till November 1st. You guys will come and offer a deal yourselves. Your companies will feel the pain. Your exports will drop significantly.

    As for your prediction of the UKs future, I see it radically different. It will be a prosperous economy. Your EU on the other hand will start to fall apart as everyone will see that exit is survivable and could actually be very beneficial.

    France is the 2nd largest.

    What will Johnson do, when we dont act that way? France is hellbend to crush the UK. Our exports to UK are not that big. And thats tehy problem. They can hurt us, we can crush them.

    Tell me, hwo long ca Johnson stay PM, when the EU makes no concessions? When it stays like it is? Your last sentence shows why you are wrong, the EU will do evrytzhing to show how horrible the brexit was.

    I think you have no clue what the EU is ready to do. The UK must fail.

    They even want end security information transfer. All UK goods get enormous tariffs, entry to EU gets blocked. EU airspace blocked for them.

    Will be interesting times. The UK already was surpised since all EU members acted united in the talks.

    It can also be seen already with teh Iran crisis. The EU leaves the UK alone and Iran shows how weak the UK is. There is nothing the UK can do and its with greatest joy i wait for the coming months. Seeing enemies suffer is always funny.

    Merkel was able to stop migration by 97% since 2015. Trump achieved nothing yet.

    Tel me, why was Merkel able to stop migration and Trump not? Simpe question

    You're telling us. With every non-European that comes to this country our quality of life takes a hit. Our beautiful museums are getting rid of lots of European classic art and replacing it with non-white art which compared to the likes of Monet have the quality of being stick figures.

    She stopped because she was going to lose her job.

    If she can do it again, she will.

    Trump hasn't been able to stop it because we have a bunch of Merkels in our government, and your southern border doesn't sit against Africa and the ME.

    Hi, Sobo! My German friends don't like Boris Johnson AT ALL! And, as you do, they think he will wreck the British economy. Personally, I began to give up hope for poor, old Britain years ago, and as far as I can tell, the only thing they do offer the world is superior TV entertainment in the English language. I know you are German, and so I will tell you that American TV is mostly a boring open-sewer of low-brow GARBAGE for imbeciles (die Schwachsinniger).

    Nevertheless, I would ask you, "Who are the Germans?", Sobo.

    It is sad to realize that Germany, too, "is ripped apart" internally. You have AfD German citizens who are trying to keep Germany from being turned into trashy, dangerous dumping ground for all of the Middle East and Africa, and, then there are all the hyperliberal "Gutmenschen" who seem to hate everything that is truly German in nature.

    Those über-Leftists won't be happy until nobody is required to work at all anymore, everything is given away for free by an internationalist EU government, and there's a mosque on every streetcorner....

    She stopped it. Thats what matters. Meanwhile you get flooded. Now even africans come through mexico.

    Since Africans cant reach Europe anymore, tehy fly Mexico

    https://foreignpolicy.com/2019/06/2...nts-are-showing-up-at-the-u-s-mexican-border/

    One recent June week, the United States stopped a record number of African refugees and migrants at its southern border. Hundreds of people fleeing violence in the Democratic Republic of the Congo, Eritrea, Somalia, Sudan, and beyond are embarking on journeys to South America either by boat or plane and then, on foot, making the long and treacherous trek north through Colombia and Panama on their way to the United States. At the same time, in the last six months, Europe recorded a steep drop in the number of African migrants and refugees reaching its border. In Italy, sea crossings dropped by 80 percent within a year.

    Germany is becoming more and more closely allied economically with both Russia and China. Yes, losing business relationships with Great Britain will hurt Germany (because Germany is the EU), but in the long run it will hurt Britain a lot more....

    She didn't stop anything, the voters did. She's the one who would take millions more if she could.

    If we didn't have so many Merkel's in our government, we wouldn't have the same problem.

    She obviously was able to stop it. She even pays warlords in Libya to put migrants in concentration camps.

    Meanwhile your country now is flooded from africans...

    So while we make a show of force...your Trump only talks. The fact remains, we locked down...but you are wide open. Each day...each hour...come more into the USA

    You have no Merkels in your government.

    Merkel stands for nothing. She wants power. She is highly intelligent. She has no own opinion. She can be left and next day facist.

    You dont have that. You have liberals who actually believe their agenda. They let evrything collapse, just to make their ideology come true.

    That you now even get flooded by africans is Merkels fault Since she locked down Europe...tehy come to you.
