"We are
leaving. We are coming out. We are not going to be a member of the EU any
longer," says the British PM.
And so says the labour
opposition but in different words. “We are not wed to free movement”
The mists surrounding the
pillars to uphold Brexit are beginning to clear.
Power revolves in Washington
this month. Incoming president Trump is facing a counter-attack by those he spectacularly
defeated in the November 2016 elections. They are wedging obstacles into his
programmes before they have started. US ambassador to Brussels claims Trump
wants to see the break-up of the EU. The ambassador calls a break-up “Lunacy.”

This is hardly a shock. The
EU is doing that break-up all by itself. US observers are asking which
countries are next to leave. There are a handful of northern countries with
large swaths of Euroskeptic voters. Some of these countries finance ministries give
the maximum life span for the Euro and ultimately the Europe project at seven
years.
So seven years is what Europe
has got to clean-up the Brussels mire. EU Break-up is assured if there
continues to be no change to Brussels’ determination to pursue federalism at
all costs and beyond consultation with Europe’s citizens. Inclusion,
co-operation and humility are words they could learn and practice.
All great man made edifices
standing the test of time are built in rock, stone and with the sweat and
labour of people.
The EU needs to realise it cannot trick Europe into its
mystic utopia by shrouding its aims in secrecy.
