This is so obscenely power-crazed I thought this might be satire. According to the Express a Polish TV channel received a leaked copy of a “bombshell proposal” that was to be put to some EU countries today. It’s a big-Government wet dream.
European SUPERSTATE to be unveiled: EU nations ‘to be morphed into one’ post-Brexit
The foreign ministers of France and Germany are due to reveal a blueprint to effectively do away with individual member states in what is being described as an “ultimatum”.
Under the radical proposals EU countries will lose the right to have their own army, criminal law, taxation system or central bank, with all those powers being transferred to Brussels.

The institution’s strongest backers are the Poles (72%) and the Hungarians (61%). In many other nations, support is tepid.

So last week 44% of Scots said they like the EU. This week 62% voted to REMAIN with the EU. (And the other 38% of the Scots are now invisible to BBC and ABC cameras.)
