#EUProjectFear has started. Watch Euroskepticism rise even further in the UK as the EU play their political games. Soft Remainers now understand what we’ve been going on about.
Yanis Varoufakis is a well spoken far-left activist. He was involved in the “Another Europe” (Remain & Reform the EU) campaign during the #EURef that other far-leftists like Owen Jones, Corbynestas (London University Crowd) & EuroCommunists gravitated to.
From Express Paper:
Prof Varoufakis, who spent months battling the debt collection policies of the EU-IMF Troika during Greece’s financial crisis, believes Brussels will exploit political divisions within Britain to reduce the chance of getting a fair Brexit deal.
After German chancellor Angela Merkel announced Britain should be more “constructive” when it comes to negotiating Brexit, Prof Varoufakis said this could be the beginning of an “EU runaround” for Theresa May.
He warned: “You won’t always know exactly who to talk to and that is deliberate.
“When you make a moderate proposal, they will react with blank stares and look at you as if you were reciting the Swedish National Anthem. It is their way of stonewalling. They will suddenly suspend talks claiming the need for more fact-checking.”
“What they are trying to do is to reduce any benefit that Theresa May will get out of the election and downplay her democratic mandate.”
His Solution, FYI:
Prof Varoufakis believes the only way for Britain to avoid being forced to play the EU’s game, is to join the European Economic Area for a seven-year transition.
This would safeguard trade and the City while also allowing the UK to withdraw from certain areas of the EU.
He concluded: “They could not refuse this. They wouldn’t have a leg to stand on.”
