“And you tell me, over and over and over
again my friend, you don’t believe we’re on the eve of re-construction.”
Brussels commission president Barroso
warned Europe’s austerity programme has reached its “political and social”
limits and the “Dream” was now under threat. European Council president Herman Van Rompuy has
claimed there is a "renewed sense of urgency"
Loose monetary policy risks sparking credit bubbles which
threaten to tip the world back into financial crisis. Many banks in the euro
area periphery remain challenged, the IMF warned April 2013.

Justin Welby said “Serious reform is necessary; we are in a serious depression.”
In Berlin chancellor Angela Merkel announced “European Nations needed to yield
some sovereignty to ensure Europe’s survival.
We seem to find common solutions when we are staring over
the abyss, but as soon as the pressure eases, people want to go their own way.”
The chancellor was concerned European leaders will lose
their commitment to a closer Europe when the crisis ebbs away.
The reality is different. Confidence in the EU is now at an all-time low. Euroskepticism is spreading across the continent. It is the people’s commitment
to EU leaders which is ebbing away. Europe
is still a great ambition but using the
crisis to push for Federalism is an arm twisting tactic that's bound to failure.
Europe’s future is secured in an
organic progress. For a modern democratic society, it is all about confidence, progress & security. Future
Europe will look so new and so characteristic we will be astounded. This new society is not to be shaped by traditional political
reform, horse trading over who gets
what, but born from the knowledge society and its cutting edge -
technology. People only need to reach
down and pick up the power of universal knowledge.
Armed with communication and knowledge,
society will evolve into a Babylon of groups switching to and fro to
defend their interest and self-determination. None can predict the shapes and forms of the groups, but
change is assured from this EU crisis of rudderless and confused leadership.
