Blijft zelf nadenken in een tijd van massahysterie. Pro European cooperation, but doesn’t want a full EU state. RT is niet per se steun, wel interessant

Het #coronavirus is vooral een les in nederigheid. We kunnen niet alles beheersen, er zijn zaken die we zullen moeten leren accepteren. De natuur wint het uiteindelijk altijd van de mens.

@PernotLeplay French protectionism is the primairy reason the EU should cease to exist.

[Mark @Mark601111]

@POLITICOEurope They're going all out to tax all of us, in order to spare their own.

Madness. France needs to be suspended from EU decision making until it gets its finances in order.

@ajboekestijn Sjoerdsma is een gevaar voor Nederland.

[Mark @Mark601111]

@AstraiaAI No, simply as it will not be able to satify the rule of law criteria - since it does not have control over its territory.

Unless it joins with only the part that it controls, effectively legitimizing Russian control over the rest.

@ftbrussels Further enlarging th union (both widening and deepening) is the surest way for it to end.

@S_VanTeutem Kiezers willen politici die keuzes maken, die handelen in het directe belang van die kiezers, en die dat doen door het oplossen van concrete problemen in plaats van abstracte spreadsheets.

Politici van het midden kunnen dat niet.

[Mark @Mark601111]

@POLITICOEurope This is a battle between extreme power-hungry federalists, working from a spreadsheet to scrap every single bit of democracy as it only slows decision making, and democrats.

Merz and his democratic side need to beat VdL.

@christianreber The US has 13 major stock exchanges
US states have their own laws and tax systems, it's highly decentralized
US companies can't just expand to another state

That's not where the parallels end. It's not our system, it's our mentality.

[Mark @Mark601111]

@FalkTG Damn Norwegians. Breaking the narrative that being in the EU is the only thing that's ever good for you.

[Mark @Mark601111]

@NoContextHumans 40% is ridiculous

[Mark @Mark601111]

@vonderleyen @eucopresident Step 1: take control over your territory

failed.

[Mark @Mark601111]

@RafaMorgan64 Besides those two idiots, it terrifies every rational thinker anywhere.

[Mark @Mark601111]

@justalexoki Yes. That's what the UK tried. The EU is incapable of downsizing itself, it locked itself in in its own treaties.

@QuantumDom Crumple Zone

[Mark @Mark601111]

@marcosagusstinn We should instead scale down the EU's ambitions to make it interesting to rejoin for the UK.

[Mark @Mark601111]

@AnatoliUkraine Working together is something entirely different than merging into a single entity. We have choices to make, but need to be careful not to have those be guided by efficiency and maximizing power - we'd just create a new China.

[Mark @Mark601111]

@Reuters Hell no. That would negate any incentive the south has to actually have any fiscal responsibility.

[Mark @Mark601111]

@lexhoogduin Tot ze volledige zeggenschap over het gebied binnen hun landsgrenzen (welke dan ook) hebben, kunnen ze toch nooit voldoen aan de Rule of Law criteria? Alleen al het Krim-vraagstuk zou moeten blokkeren dat ze lid worden...

[Mark @Mark601111]

@POLITICOEurope We knew this would happen. No one is surprised. Club Med is a financial sinkhole and should be kicked out of the Union.

[Mark @Mark601111]

@Antikeburg Indeed. The greatest mission of a parent is making sure their kids can sustain themselves when the parents die - which they always do and mostly before their children.
