The EUSSR must collapse. The nation states of Europe, the people of Europe, never voted for an almighty, omnipotent supranational dictatorship.
The European Union wants to ban the repair of all vehicles older than 15 years. “All to encourage Europeans to buy new ‘eco-friendly’ cars…
President Trump said, “The European Union is very, very nasty.”
President Donald Trump is going to impose tariffs on EU goods and I believe it might ring in the beginning of the end of the European Union.
Why? It will bring back ✨bilateral trade treaties✨ and the lie of having to be part of the EU out of economic “necessity” will crumble. pic.twitter.com/UBOL0zyMtl

Whatever Brussels claims the EU is still imploding and here’s why, writes LEO MCKINSTRY
THE European Union has always been characterised by supreme arrogance. Its leaders combine a contempt for democracy and nationhood with a messianic belief in their ideology of federal unity.
This renewed self-righteous fervour is reflected in their increasing bullishness towards Britain over Brexit, highlighted by their extortionate claim for a “divorce” payment of more than £80billion.
The surging cockiness of Brussels is built on two factors.
EU bosses hailed the success of their union after reports it is back on track after years of crisis
One is the idea that the progressive, globalist forces in Europe are triumphing over anti-EU populism, as epitomised by the recent victory of centrist moderniser Emmanuel Macron over Marine Le Pen of the National Front in the French presidential election.
The likely triumph of Angela Merkel, the cold, scheming architect of modern Europe, in September’s German election will only reinforce the EU’s feeling of superiority.
The other factor is the first evidence of growth in the eurozone economy following a long period of stagnation and decline.
We have good news coming from all quarters of the European Union–Mario Draghi, the European Central Bank president
Having refused to take responsibility for the meltdown after the financial crash, EU bosses are now trying to take the credit for the glimmers of recovery.
“We have good news coming from all quarters of the European Union,” declared Mario Draghi, the European Central Bank president, last month.
Yet such optimism is not just complacent, it is delusional. In reality the EU, ruined by its own chronic flaws, is still on course for disaster.
Brexit negotiators are demanding more than £80bn from the UK for Brexit
Far from creating a bright future, the Brussels elite is indulging in a Danse Macabre as the continent slides into chaos.
All the rhetoric about an economic recovery is wildly overblown. Most of the structural problems that caused the last crisis are still in place. Public finances are too weak, deficits too high.
Compared with the US and the Far East the eurozone is hopelessly uncompetitive, weighed down by bureaucracy, heavy taxation and costly social security.
Europe has only seven per cent of the world’s population yet accounts for no less than 50 per cent of the world’s welfare expenditure.
