(14,449 posts)The voters of England want to stop having to listen to a group of bureaucrats from another country. Nobody would want that. And the Greek economy is not done and I am sure voters are not wanting to do another bailout. There are many reasons for them to want to leave. I think the biggest is they wanted to run their own country again. Get ready for France to follow England. I think France may wait to see how England does before leaving the EU but I believe they will be the next to leave. The Netherlands want to leave too. We will see how this all plays out.
