It is all a conspiracy.

The UK could try a blockade, since we are all so evil. :hmmm:

You'd need a lot more than four fishery protection vessels :)

I see several candidates possibly threatening to leave.

France, onc eht epopulaiton thinks its beloved socialism is driving against the wall. Actually it is driving against the wall riught now,m but the oublic perception of it is lagging behind, kind of.

Italy, once debts and possible conditions for further credit taking beocmes so unsympathetic that they think they simply dodge the obliogaiton to pay debts back by leaving tzhe Euro as well and leaving Germany and othe rnet payers alone with their claims these countries cannot enforce to get paid out.

Greece, for simliar reasons.

Spains, for similiar reasons.

Netherlands for the reasons explained in the video.

Maybe Finland, for being sick of seeing others getting thrown money at while many years ago the Finnish took it into their own hands and accepted some heavy uncomfortablities to get themselves out of their bad debts situaiton back then, and now , after their sacriices back then, they should pa yout others for free...? I could understand if the Fins one day would be seriousl pissed.

I could understand if some of the altic small satates would be oissed as well, for they also endured quite some suffering to brign their fincial management and eocnomy into shape - somehtign that france, Italy, Greece since xyears and decades refuse to do, expecting to get bailed out by Germany and others.

Who likes parasites taking free rides at the costs of the others, give a hand sign please!

What - nobody?

Its all about the remaining time of the Fiat money system. Once the core meltdown makes it imploding in all clearity, its game over for the EU. Until then, the eU will maximise the damages in an attempt to win some more strokes of breath before it dies nevertheless.

The trophy for the most stupid nation then will go - to Germany, I have no doubt.

I do not know the people in those country, but if they are like people in Denmark and Sweden-Then a exit from EU is very, very far away.

Reason !? These people say one thing but put their vote on parties or politicians who at most is critical towards EU-Not against it.

There is a very important thing that sets both Denmark and Sweden apart from the countries I mentioned.

Sweden's debts before Corona were around 39% of its GDP.

Denmark's debts before Corona were about 34% of its GDP.

These days, such "low" debt levels sound almost paradisic.

German debt level before Corona was around 60% of the GDP.

All before Corona:
France almost 100%, Italy: 135%, Greece: over 180%

The UK, for that matter: 86%

All debts are explicit debts only, not implicit debts (the latter being higher by several factors).

The lethal desease Europe is sufering form is that thos eocutnries with the highest debts have the loudest voice now and the decision majority in both the EU and the ECB directors board. The takers can vote down the givers any time. Guess what they do!

More than 1,500 lorries are stranded in Kent waiting for the UK-French border to open.

Talks to reopen the crossing are ongoing, after France shut the border amid fears of a new Covid variant in the UK

Measures agreed by PM Boris Johnson and President Emmanuel Macron will be announced later and come into effect from Wednesday.

Retailers warn unless the border is opened soon there may be disruption to supplies of fresh produce by the end of the week.

Meanwhile people in Europe can all look forward to what happens after january 1st, so once more thanks to brexit.
