Strong Britain, Weak Europe
Political Wireby Taegan Goddard

Ambrose Evans-Pritchard: “?Britain is suddenly the only big country in western Europe with a fully functional government able to take radical measures and sweep aside resistance. France, Germany, Italy and Spain are all in political turmoil or have a paralyzed executive. The center is crumbling everywhere – but not in Britain. A one-nation Tory running on a green, social democrat economic program has pulled off the feat of uniting a blue collar north and an affluent south.”

“The world press and left-academia got that narrative badly wrong. This political asymmetry between a unified, confident, well-armed British government and a demoralised, splintered Continent matters enormously. Brussels can no longer play the divide and rule game in Westminster, or indeed with the Tory party itself.?”?
