Britain near the exit from the European Union
Britain is facing the European question in an almost final. The isolation that Cameron has provoked opposing the election of Juncker, to his country, among other things, with the only support of Hungary, is likely to lead London outside the European Union. In truth, the British prime minister, with his behavior, marked with a very pronounced skepticism against Brussels, contributed not a little to bring the country in this direction, producing, however, the fact of being overtaken by populist forces, who have obtained , thanks to these topics, a good election result. Even a study that says a considerable penalty for the UK economy in terms of jobs, seems to have influenced the conduct of Cameron, who has followed a strategy to protect British finance, believing it to get favors in an anti German. Essentially lost a game, which puts the government in London in a state of uncertainty. On the other hand, Britain must first of all be clear with itself: the accession to the EU has always lived in a very detached, trying to take the benefits of Brussels, without, however, then bear the burden. The choice not to belong to the single currency and continue with the pound, had already made it clear plenty of skepticism towards the European institutions and the continuing obstacles to the process of political unification, and aversions to common economic measures, London placed in a sort of exclusion , that left no doubt about the true intentions of the British. Against this resistance, it must be said that Brussels has always acted too cautiously, allowing the British government to maintain a position of skepticism towards Europe too pronounced, without calling London to respect, if not the commitments, at least a real sharing of political union of European countries. The fact that the only state to have voted against Juncker, was Hungary, where it is legitimate to have doubts about the real requirements to keep the place in Europe, given the squeeze on civil rights, in particular freedom of the press, imposed by the current government, it means that there is an ongoing increasing spacing between London and the other members of the EU. It would be appropriate that Brussels would evoke Britain compliance with the European spirit, back to concur it to the exit. The European Union does not need internal brakes, which limit the central action only on the basis of its national interests: Europe can move forward without the UK, the opposite will probably work in the short term but in the long run the 'exclusion from the European market will provoke a major crisis in the country of Queen Elizabeth. But Cameron, as well as being affected by a personal skepticism towards Europe, it must reason about time constraints dictated by the approach of electoral events that might favor the more populist anti Brussels; By contrast Labour are in favor of a European commitment, then the prime minister, Downing Street is located between two fires. But still not enough because his party has a majority against the EU. Juncker election, it seems that Cameron has played too much gambling ending up in a trap built by himself. On the domestic admit defeat however lead to negative repercussions on the political career of Prime Minister, but even more will weigh on Britain's future in Europe. The firmness with which other countries have voted the popular candidate, against the emphasis of Cameron, shows that you want to get London to a final decision that disrupts the conduct English: in the future, Britain could no longer be endured with his skeptical attitudes and the way the output would be the release of a burden to the process of unification, never shared from London.
