Hmmmm. The 'eu'. Who would have thought that would turn out badly? Guess someone thought the u.n. wasn't getting the "one world" deal moving fast enough so they tried to jump start using europe. Pretty sad to see 62+% of the Swiss offer up their gun 'rights'(?) and ideas to Brussels last Sunday. So, nationalism or the "yewwwwwww".

The EU would have been dissolved decades ago if opposition to it weren't divided between Left and Right.

Some of the Leftwing Euroskeptics can be won over to the nationalist side in upcoming elections, in the same way that Trump was able to win over a fair number of blue collar former Democrats, but the overwhelming majority of the anti-EU leftists will not support nationalist parties. Leftist Euroskpetics are just as committed to internationalism as the Eurocrats, their only reason for opposing the EU is that it's not socialist enough for them.

GO, Tommy Robinson, GO!

Hopefully, he'll get elected as a MEP. The British presstitutes, particularly the Beeb, spin the 'nūze' so much that CNN ALMOST looks respectful. Hopefully, enough Brits are aware enough of the bias in the press, to vote for an honest man, rather than the 'squishy socialist islamophiles' that traditionally run for the European Parliament. Being a Canadian citizen, I am quite familiar with 'squishy socialist islamophiles'. The 47 year old teenage girly-man who thinks he 'reigns' over Kanaduh, comes to mind.

My prayers are with Tommy and British Patriots. GO, Brexit and GO, Tommy Robinson, GO!

Europe has a long history of oscillating on this issue. It either wants to be one big place -- under the Hapsburgs, under Napoleon, under Hitler, under the EU ...

Or else it wants to be a number of sovereign nations.

The modern concept of Nation State largely grew out of the Peace of Westphalia that ended the Thirty Years War in 1648 (and essentially broke the Hapsburgs).

I think the EU has run it's course, and I hope national sovereignty makes a comeback in Europe.

The Austrians took a hit, though, via corruption.

I hope the EU is dissolved, but I doubt it will happen. France and Germany want it real bad, as a way of erasing the memories of the bitter wars between the two.

Nationalism rocks, for the people.
