Breentry coming? Nice.
The UK wanting to have and eat their cake incoming in 3... 2... 1...
If they don’t let us in we’ll sink the French fleet again.
Don't worry, in return the Dutch will sink half of their fleet and steal the other half.
Technically, the other way around, because they burned and sunk everything that was too much for them to steal.
Too bad modern ship sterns aren’t interesting enough to hang on a wall.
Maybe they'd still pass as abstract art, and could fetch a small fortune when auctioned off, though.
Guess they are going to get several free wishes just for bringing their nukes...
Or they only get in at all if they commit to providing said nukes for defence of the EU. Can be a double edged sword. As far as I can see the UK has been considerably worse of in terms of their economy without the EU than the EU without the UK. The nukes might very well be the requirement, not the cherry on top.
Their nukes which ride on American missiles and therefore rely on continued US support to even be a credible deterrent.
No problem – they'll be substituted with Ukrainian drones.
