Not quite together

Here's the thing. UK's possible exit from the EU could cause an unprecedented shock that's hard to predict, possibly with global consequences.

The question these days is if England would leave the Euro'16 or the EU first. In the former case, it'll be only the football fans who'd suffer - for a while. But that wouldn't be anything unusual: England

Bookies and gamblers are strengthening in their conviction that the U.K. will opt to remain in the European Union, as polls show a swing away from a so-called Brexit.

Jo Cox' murder, a false-flag operation by the pro-EU camp? That sort of tinfoil stuff was bound to start popping up.

Cameron has set the precedent that other countries could now follow. First he wants to make the UK a "half-member" of the EU, then he vouches for staying in the EU. He regularly washes his hands with these referenda (latest example: Scotland), but he does it out of calculated risk. He's betting his career for the second time, but the timing is well calculated. If the UK exits the EU, Scotland might want to reconsider its staying in the union, but they did already have a referendum about that relatively recently, right? They'd be in a much weaker position now. That cunning Cameron!

Or a Brexit could actually make the remaining EU members more united.
