Brexit changes conversation around possible European Army

7 July 2016

Britain has long opposed the creation of a European Army, but after Brexit, could it become a reality? At last week’s EU summit, a plan was put on the table, and CCTV’s Guy Henderson brings us more.

Why such an European army would be bad news: here.

Ireland: Unions condemn EU for not heeding Brexit warnings

Saturday 23rd July 2016

IRISH trade unions slammed European leaders for failing to heed the warnings of Brexit ahead of yesterday’s BritishIrish Council (BIC) summit in Cardiff.

The BIC’s extraordinary meeting was called to discuss the implications of the historic referendum vote.

Representatives from the Republic of Ireland, Northern Ireland, Scotland, Wales, the Channel Islands and Westminster were present. But the Irish Congress of Trade Unions (ICTU) executive council, meeting in Dublin on Thursday, said the EU had “failed to get the message.”

“The result of the referendum swung on working-class voters suffering years of austerity and deregulated labour markets,” said ICTU assistant general secretary Peter Bunting.

He warned that “radical right” parties across Europe would benefit on the back of similar referenda.

Mr Bunting also stressed that the EU needed to scrap its austerity policies in favour of “a New Deal to generate growth and jobs” claiming that without this “the collapse of the EU is inevitable.”

“The only European project worth defending is one which delivers for working-class people across Europe.”

DAVID CAMERON was accused yesterday of “rewarding failure” by dishing out gongs to prominent EU Remain campaigners in his resignation honours list. The former prime minister is going to reward 48 Tory donors, personal aides and a range of EU campaign supporters including scientists, doctors and creative industries, a leaked list shows.
