It comes down to the money. If this bandied about figure of 100 billion euros is even half true, that UK will have to find a massive hit of cash to supply to Europe.. then no way will the right wing element of the Conservative Party, (with a big majority) sanction that. Would be very easy to totally withdraw all our remaining forces back here, as a bargaining chip/cost saver/raspberry. Poland, Estonia.....they would be looking for us then.
I can seriously see it coming. We have an expensive nuclear deterrent which always seems to be being factored in these days.
These are bad unstable times.
Macrons just got in, next Prez of The French Republic.... he's no anglophile. Junkers crowing already like the ****er he is.
