Majority in Britain would like to detach from European Union, but…

Palace of Westminster in London

The UK does not seem to want to admit it, but it appears to be looking to compile a list of reasons why it perhaps would want to leave the European Union or at least not be totally committed to all parts of it:

The U.K. and the EU: Irreconcilable Differences?

Bloomberg – excerpt…

For one thing, the U.K., ever the reluctant European, is getting ready to insist on answers. Prime Minister David Cameron has promised a speech later this month that will set out goals for talks on a new European treaty, together with plans for a referendum on any subsequent “new settlement.”

Opinion polls in Britain show majorities in favor of withdrawal.

Well, despite some of its leaders claiming that it does not want to get out of the EU, Britain really is telling the EU that it is not interested in loss of sovereignty and national interest. And that is something that the EU is all about.

Interestingly, and not that surprising, the Obama Administration wants the UK to be part of the EU:

The Obama administration on Wednesday publicly signalled its growing concern about a possible British exit from the EU, just days before David Cameron sets out plans for a referendum on the issue. US diplomats have privately warned for months that Mr Cameron risked putting Britain on a path to exit with his plan to renegotiate Britain’s EU membership terms and put the “new settlement” to a referendum. http://www.ft.com/intl/cms/s/0/36314b08-5a70-11e2-bc93-00144feab49a.html#axzz2HVZjvMhb

The Obama Administration has taken several steps in the past to support the European Union and this is just one more. It is clear that those in the USA do not seem to consider the fact that the European King of the North will go against the strongest fortresses (the USA) and divide its lands for gain (Daniel 11:39).

The reality is that the EU is all about trying to be a revival of the old Holy Roman Empire and that it certainly does intend to be a military empire. If not, I simply do not believe that Germany (who tried to recreate the empire via two world wars) would continue to fund the EU. Nor would the Europeans have developed the Galileo satellite system (EU Approves Galileo For Military Use and USA GPS and EU Galileo linking was expected), the Large Hadron Collider (CERN Makes Major Strides with Antimatter), decided to fund FAIR (another collider-type project, see Germany Approves FAIR Particle Accelerator Project), nor be involved in various other activities that it is now engaged in (e.g. Europe Looking to be a Major Player in Space).

Another financial and military system is starting to arise in Europe and the Anglo-descended nations will not like what will replace Anglo-capitalism or “Pax Americana” in that new world order.

But ultimately, Jesus will come and establish His kingdom with, amongst other things, a proper economic system. But until then, overall, Britain will see that it has less influence on the world scene than it did in its glory days or even as it did a decade or so ago.

Although the United Kingdom (and related Commonwealth nations) and the United States have dominated the world’s economy the past couple of centuries (as well as the military for over a 1/2 century), a shift is occurring and those in the Anglo-nations will not like what will be happening relatively soon.

And British attitudes towards the European Union will likely be a factor.
