I don't see it failing. From what I hear the EU will greatly benefit from UK businesses migrating over to the EU.
Germany and France might see a little growth to their financial centres. Which will help Southern Europe exactly zilch.
It will be paltry next to the worth of the UK's economy. You clearly have a chip on your shoulder so I'm not sure why I'm bothering with you.
The EU's economy isn't doomed by the loss of the UK, but it is a loss and a significant one at that.
That global influence is rapidly waning
Haha, you actually are deluded. The UK's global influence has been slowly qaning since the days of the Empire, not rapidly waning in the last few years. If anything it's holding steady more than waning at this point.
and leaving the EU will do it no favours.
The EU exerts exactly fuck all influence without us. It could, if it wanted to, but it frequently doesn't and picks the easy path over the hard one. Case in point, the UK pushed for harsh sanctions on Russia, both Germany and France wanted to relax the sanctions.
Having to beg Nissan to remain in the UK?
Giving them guarantees isn't begging. You want to see begging see the EU's policy on Refugees and Illegal Immigrants.
A poor meeting with India?
Pfft, you think being racist against India will help you case?
India is one of the fastest growing economies, they have a vast and varied culture and atleast if they are dicks to us they will be based on legitimate grievances instead of the spitefest that is the European Union.
Such influence.
Shouldn't you be speaking Russian or German, Comrade?
