With her centre-left government kicked out of power, Denmark will now be ruled by a right-wing, really rather Eurosceptic coalition. Looks like Cameron is about to get his first renegotiation ally. |
Let's hope so. There's clearly growing resentment throughout Europe and the refusal to address it is only going to make things worse and could lead to big trouble.

It's a measure of the denial within the EU's upper echelons that they continue to refuse any meaningful reform, preferring to carry on regardless. I really don't understand how they can be so blinkered and entrenched in spite of the obvious reality that the EU cannot continue in anything like its present form. I wish it wasn't the case but IMHO the EU is like a fuel laden supertanker heading towards rocks and the captain is insisting they move out of his way...
