How long until they go crawling back to the EU?

We should take them back, of course they first have to go through the whole process and they dont get any special treatment.

"sorry, the rectal exam is part of the process now. And please sing the hymns of all member states in the meantime."

According to the usual criteria, you are not allowed to accept them without massive reforms.

Sure we are. As soon as they sign on to Schengen and the Euro and a bunch of other stuff they used to have exemptions for.

Britain easily had the best deal with the EU ever. That’s not coming back.

The EU would offer them such insulting terms compared to their previous arrangements that they'll never rejoin.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 1 year ago (1 children)

They'd just get standard terms. Which they'd probably find insulting, admittedly.

I mean, if I got the same consideration as a financial blackhole like Greece I wouldn't call that fair from the UK perspective either. They made their own bed at this point though. I hope th EU lets them sit and spin for decades.

Theoretically, the admission process is supposed to be quite lengthy, so from their application to their integration, there could easily be fifteen years or more. Especially with a shaky economy.
