    She was but in the EU she is actually nowhere near as bad as I expected back when she was elected based on her history. And for someone with former military related posts she really isn’t anything close to war-mongering.

        Shhh, don’t tell the Brits or they might try to rejoin.

        The “EU army” was apparently a big thing during the referendum.

        J/k, I’d love to see the UK back in the bloc.

          Me too. But I think it won’t happen for several decades - they’re too proud to admit they fucked up. Those that voted to leave and apparently most politicians, at least.
