Brriton Entering The European Union Case Study

Superior Essays
Briton exiting the European Union It is half past five in the morning September the fifteenth and people are anxiously waiting for Nigel Farage. Around six, a black jeep slowly pulled in front of the BBC TV station in Westminster. The driver of the car walked out from his seat and took few steps towards the left side of the passenger door. As soon as the driver swung open the passage side, Nigel Farage a middle aged man with gray hair and a bank clerk 's suit walked out of the car and proceeded to the BBC building reception area. Until recently, Nigel Farage came to interviews alone and on a public transport. Now he has a driver, a personal assistant and, he is considered as one of the biggest political media stars. After a quick interview …show more content…
Every morning, Farage drives his car to the English Channel and heads his way to the European parliament in Strasberg. At the border checkpoint between France and Briton there are no border guards. He passes through the border without showing a passport. When Farage drives his car on the shuttle he feels quite exited even though he has been doing it for a long time. Fage admires Europe’s unique culture, History, and language. Instead of reflecting this unique culture and history the European Union has been working on a project of uniting the different countries of Europe in to a single federal super state. The European Union was primarily established to open up the European economy for trade and commerce, but Farage thinks it has done the exact opposite. There is a big wall that is increasingly being built around the European Union diminishing the Europeans opportunity to tread gods and services with the rest of the world. The EU far from being a free tread zone it increasingly resembles a protectionist block. For this reason many British citizens are demanding to exit the European union “The European Union (EU) is a unique international organization that focuses on cooperation between governments. It comprises a set of common national institutions established by the member states, each of which gives up some of their sovereignty, to make decisions …show more content…
(László, Deakin) The union contains twenty eight counters with one governing body, once a court of justice, the same currency and one flag. However the politicians who favored the EU knew that citizens would not willingly surrender their freedom to become just a province in a vast European super state. So the politicians conspired to keep the truth from the people. Fast forward to 2016, EU has achieved most of its objectives. Nonetheless, most Europeans are now waking up to the truth. According to a recent documentary movie by WAG production shows that “The European union has become undemocratic institution led by unelected officials. In the long run the EU is drifting towards extremism and economic decline” (Nigel Farage, Simon). For this reason, counter like Britain are taking the right steps to break free from this unholy Communion called the European

    After World War II, Europe was left devastated and separated due to political and cultural differences. Following, the Cold War only furthered the divide between Europe causing a terrible economic situation for all countries. After the Cold War ended, Europe began to discuss a policy that would unite all of Europe on an economic and cultural basis to increase productivity and an overall better life for their citizens.

    Hola Diana, that bit of philosophy is right, the candidates for the Conservative leader should read it, this last week has been bad with all the back stabbing and selfish behaviour. 2 of the people who were running mates with Boris Johnston, suddenly decided to stand for election them selves, so Johnston has pulled out which has made me a bit angry, he is the only one of the contenders that has the leadership qualities the country needs. He was mayor of London for 7 or 8 years, he knows how to organise and make decisions, and he knows what we need to do with the EU, now we have 5 people standing, and none of them looks like a good leader. if we don't get the right person in charge we could end up gaining nothing from leaving the eu. There are 2 ways of leaving the eu, one is to start what they call, article 50,…

    This parliament does not have the power that the European Union Legislation does. The UK parliament is allowed to pass laws which focus on a certain area of the UK. An example of this would be to pass laws which only apply to Scotland. This makes the UK parliament higher to Scottish parliament as they have power over decisions made for Scotland.…

    BREXIT is the term derived from the words “Britain” and “Exit” used to clarify the separation of Britain from the European Union (EU) .In June 2016, about 51.9 percent of voters in voted to bring Britain 'out' of the EU under the deemed historic referendum, thus ending 43 years of Britain 's relationship with EU.

    British politics is not what it was 20 years ago. Elements of New Labours constitutional reform programme such as The Human Rights Act 1998 have had some impact in affecting the sovereignty of parliament; yet in recent news there have been plans to replace it (Stone 2015). On the other hand, devolution has opened up space for other political parties to be recognized and consequently impacted the voting turnout for what were once the two main political parties (Conservative and Labour) that have governed the UK. Although evidence supports the fact that many elements have had some effects on British politics, it is clear to see that devolution has had the most impact despite minor…

    Another function for the parliament is to make approval on the EU in alliance with the Council . For the European Council, despite the fact that it is not the main role without any new power, the Lisbon Treaty still recognizes it as an EU institution. After the Treaty was enforced, the European Council is directed by a president which can enhance the European Council’s role as an agenda-setter of the EU . Moving on to the Council of the EU, notwithstanding the alteration in regard to the majority voting and the making of decisions, they did not provide adequate and compelling remedies towards the control of the democratic decision making by a constitutional organ. Furthermore, it is important to know that only European Commission is capable to draft legislative proposals, which leads to a ‘democratic deficit’ problem towards the drafting as Lisbon Treaty did not propose any key alteration towards the ‘democratic deficit’ as to the Commission’s structure, functioning or powers…

    What politicians say matter a lot. Jean-Paul Sartre has rightly said, "Words are loaded pistols. " A case in point are the increased hate crimes in the United Kingdom and the United States now and in Nepal in the wake of the Madhesh Movement. Xenophobic and Europhobic words of British leaders inspired the nearly 50 percent rise in hate crimes in Britain. Several British leaders campaigned for Britain 's exit -- Brexit -- from the European Union deploying bigotry, xenophobia and Europhobia -- Britain for British people, British jobs for British workers, illegal immigrants go home, immigrants are a burden on British schools and hospitals, and the like --for the referendum held in June this year.…

    I agree completely with Farage that the lack of intellectual diversity in the election and debate is extremely concerning as Germany is a major player in Europe due to their big economy in comparison to the rest of the EU. It is not gender nor race nor sexual identity that breeds valuable diversity, but intellectual diversity as it guareteenes not only new ideas, but ideas present to be challenged; therefore, from this intellectual growth is possible. Farage goes on to another statement in the article I agree with, “[...] look, the reason the Brits left is because you're behaving so badly, you're taking away so much of…

    Abstract The European Union of today is the result of a process that began over half a century ago with the creation of the European Coal and Steel Community.

In fact, there were some thorny issues and crises took place with various reasons, mainly were intergovernmental issues, in the way of integration.…

    Europeanization remains a new theoretical interest which has produced more questions than answers. It is considered a dynamic process unfolding over time. It included both the domestic and EU level of policy making and stresses on the inter-dependence between the two. Olsen presents another perspective saying Europeanization involves changes taking place in member states and then goes on to further outline the process of institutional change that may identify how or why it takes place. The difference between Europeanization and European Integration in the light of neo-functionalism shall be explained in detail…
