How's the Brexit loving Germany nearly as much as the UK?

Yeah, Germany just increased it's power in the EU by at least 1/3 with that step. Depending on how much GB removes itself from the EU (only the political union or the economic union) Frankfurt might take over a lot of what London was for Europe until now financially too. If anyone profits from the whole clusterfuck in the long term it's Germany and France (if they ever get a competent government again.)

There are actually several, and they are all in various states of despair.

What an unimaginably dumb decision, holy poo poo. Twenty years from now distinguished professors will sit on a podium, discussing European politics of the early 21st century, and when the topic turns to the Brexit they will all look at each other and shrug, as if to say "gently caress if I know what that was about".

I gravitated towards the Greens, eventually even joining the party itself.

The Linke is a party I grudgingly accept exists, but I've learned enough about DDR-history I can't bring myself to trust a party that was once the SED, a party leading the corrupt state apparatus ...

The only sad thing is, it will take two full years of negotiations until we can finally be save from the Englishmen harrassing our shores.

Anyway. Let's celebrate! The UK basically saved the EU by removing itself. Now it's time for some reforms!

Even more. Article 50 proceedings require the UK to actually iniate the Brexit. There is probably a slim chance that they will delay it even longer than they already plan to, i.e. October.

I'm reading now Scotland wants to try another independence referendum and even people in North Ireland and some weirdos in loving Wales are thinking about leaving the UK.

This is a political dumpster-fire. Either they delay as long as possible, angering all those dimwits who voted for Brexit, or they don't and every country except England (and maybe Wales) will try to sever ties so they can stay in the EU.

Nicola Sturgeon has now pretty much said that another Scottish referendum is guaranteed. Hopefully sooner rather than later.

And you know poo poo is hosed when even Northern Ireland is thinking about it.

Opinion among my co-workers is varying degrees of "this is a real shame, what are they thinking?" to "this is a real shame, but seriously gently caress those Inselaffen."

I doubt that the Protestants in Northern Ireland would ever accept a reunion with the Republic, even if that had majority approval. I fear that that would be really bad news for the peace process :(

Choice quotes:

"Now, what I would like to see, is a grown up and sensible attitude to how we negotiate a different relationship."

closely followed by

"Now I know that virtually none of you have ever done a proper job in your lives."


He also kicks the speech off by saying "you're not laughing anymore" and proceeds to say the following:

"If you were to cut off your noses to spite your faces, and to reject any idea of a sensible trade deal, the consequences would be far worse for you that it (sic!) would be for us"

Closely followed by the entire room laughing at him, including this exquisite picture of a guy facepalming while laughing following that very sentence.

That was a really great parliamentary session, especially Juncker asking Farage why he was still sitting there and Verhofstadt literally saying "Soon we will get rid of the biggest waste in the EU for the last seventeen years, namely your salary" :iceburn:

Also lol at Farage claiming nobody of the other MEPs was working, his attendance record is abysmal:

Both valid - I'm just surprised that I needed to take a cold shower this morning to cool off. It was also a snarky way to post that I was here and see if anyone wanted to try to meet up this weekend or some time next week.

I'm about to head out of my hotel that i flopped in over night to the AirBnB I'm staying at. Do y'all have Uber here? Haven't checked yet.

I was in Vienna last week for the first leg of the tour, where it was hitting near 37-38C(or, well, over 90F in God's Own Temperature Measurement). That's part of what led me to complain about it.
