"Two in three people believe the European Union is attempting to
Â*€śbully€ť the UK in the Brexit negotiations, according to a new poll.
A survey carried out for the Telegraph reveals that while the split
of Leave and Remain voters is largely unchanged since the
referendum, 67per cent of individuals, regardless of their voting
preference, agreed that €śthe EU is trying to bully the UK€ť in its
approach to the talks."
The EU is doing what any intelligent person would expect them to do:
put the interests of the EU and its citizens before those of Britain.
It isn't though is it?
Its acting entirely in its OWN interest. German manufacturers are
aghast at the possibility of a hard brexit, so is Italy. And yet
Brussels is pursuing a course that will inevitably end there...
Only if the internal politics of the Conservative party force that
result, which they might.
so which of the two unpalatable solutions to NI that the EU appear to be
forcing us to choose between, would you choose?

Neither, it's not about trade that could be easily sorted. Ireland and
the EU are looking for 're-unification' by the back door method and see
Brexit as a means of acheiving it.
