They are scared. They are afraid that if the UK makes a success of it, then other member
countries will want to leave and so they want to make it as difficult as possible.
The thing is the EU does not own the countries it represents, the EU was suppose to be a
cooperation of countries. It was never suppose to conquer and take them over. The EU is now
treating its member states as if they belong to it.
In short the EU has become too powerful. Germany especially wants to rule everyone.
Watch this space in the coming years. If the EU doesn't split up it will be a major
player in end times.
Have a look at this which shows how many MEPs each country has in the EU.
The larger the population the more MEPs they have. Guess who has the most.
Guess which country is pushing forward their own agenda, guess which
country wants a European Army with it in control of said army.
The UK was always considered to be the restraining hand of reason in the
EU. With that going, watch this space.
