re: [Update] The UK votes to leave the EU

Those who believe staying in is the safer option might want to read this:

Quote:
The European Union is staggering in the ring, like a bloodied boxer, taking punch after punch, staying just about upright, not because of improbable belief in victory but through the unacceptability of the alternative.

Just as the migration crisis eases, Berlin and Paris brace themselves for another blow - the possibility of the UK leaving the EU.

The Ukraine crisis is almost forgotten, but those Dutch who could be bothered to vote have rejected an ever-growing union.

So it is hardly the best time for an old horror to remerge - Euro Crisis 2.

But that is what is on the cards.

Mutterings from Portugal, news from Spain, Italian woes and Greeks refusing to bear gifts to Berlin all point towards a difficult summer.

It'll all come to a head shortly after our referendum no doubt and club membership might not feel quite so safe...
