That is precisely what I object to, the unfair treatment.
The EU and Europe before it have short memories and are damaging their own image before the eyes of the world.
Macron is going to be in big trouble back home when the French fishermen find their livelihoods jeapordized and that is only one small example.
Merkel on the other hand has been far more cautious and reasonable, realising the impact on German car exports will be hit hard.
All the major players (UK included) are going to suffer as a consequence and the vast majority of of EU members who are net receivers will see little difference in the impact on themselves.
Anyone for Italy going next?
