Brexiternity: The Uncertain Fate of Britain

Autor Denis MacShane
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 16 oct 2019
Never in the lifetime of most British adults has there been such uncertainty about the future of the political and governing institutions of the state. Brexit has the potential to change everything - from the shape of government institutions, to the main political parties, from Britain's relationship with its near neighbour Ireland to its international trading. The idealists of the Leave campaign won their vote in 2016. But now the realists are gently taking over. Here, Denis MacShane explains how the Brexit process will be long and full of difficulties - arguing that a 'Brexiternity' of negotiations and internal political wrangling in Britain lies ahead.

Recenzii

Brexiternity is another title with foresight and flair.
Denis MacShane knows European politics better than most and he has been consistent in predicting and charting the course of Brexit ever since David Cameron announced the referendum in January 2013. His latest look forward to many years of dominating England's relations with Europe, with Ireland and Scotland. Unless new political leadership arises that cuts the Brexit Gordian knot we face a difficult Brexit decade which this book explains.
It is unbelievable to me that a rational nation like Britain should embark on such a disastrous venture as Brexit, which puts at risk the economic and political links with Europe, the continent where our civilization was born and where our, and still the world's, biggest market is to be found. With the rise of Asia and the growing isolation of the United States it is imperative that we stay united in Europe and work for each other for the common good. Brexit in any form can only do serious damage to the British economy and to Europe, the store of national wealth and the public revenue that comes in from a growing economy. Dr Denis MacShane has written a book on the future impact of Brexit which policy makers would be well advised to read.
Leavers and Remainers alike will learn from this book as we face a decade in which Brexit will dominate our national life.
Denis MacShane has spent much of his writing and political life engaging with European politics as well as a deep sense of the English politics that gave rise to Brexit. He is right to argue that we face years and years of Brexit issues in Britain but also in Ireland and the rest of Europe as well. This book spells out why Brexit will morph into a Brexiternity.
Denis MacShane is a rare British politician who understands how the EU actually works. His book is a sombre warning about how Brexit will damage relations with Europe in the years ahead.
Denis MacShane is a former Europe Minister who spends time talking to European politicians and getting first-hand information by visiting EU capitals. Taking the British egg out of the EU omelette if it can ever be done will take years of negotiations - a Brexiternity indeed.
I've just read Denis MacShane's excellent Brexiternity and strongly recommend it.
Whether you agree or disagree with him - it will be well worth reading.
