[cancel2 2022]

THE STAGE is set” for Italy to leave the EU, with Brussels’ failure to keep promises to the Italian people means they will quit the elitist trade bloc, according to former Tory leader, William Hague.

Granted, getting Italy off its hands is a positive for the EU, but, I do enjoy seeing the dominos fall.

The EU has sown the seeds of its own destruction, like all empires it has tried to expand and control all that it surveys. To quote Arthur Bomber Harris: "They sowed the wind, and now, they are going to reap the whirlwind".

Hague said that Italy may leave the eurozone, not the EU:

"If the new political leaders want to trigger the bust-up that could lead to Italy leaving the euro ... the stage will be perfectly set for it"

but "There are formidable political obstacles to leaving the euro."

This is where he said it:

Leaving the Eurozone is just the first stage, there is a big movement in Italy to leave the EU as well.

I was thinking about gassing the Iraqis and Kurds.

Well, that's what Hague wrote! Leaving the euro.

What the Express makes of it is between them and their readers.

[Minister of Truth]

The Eurozone has been crushing Italy for well over a decade, which is why they are especially keen to get away from it. I imagine they will still feel that their presence in the EU is not helping its situation with labor costs.

The Northern League made leaving the EU part of its election platform, if it refused to renegotiate its fiscal and immigration rules. The EU has stated many times that membership of the Euro will be mandatory in future for all member states.

In 1920 the British gassed thousands... a half a world away from the UK.

[Tranquillus in Exile]

Hey, I'm in favor of Italy leaving the EU if they can! I'm just pointing out that Hague said nothing about that.
But millions of Express readers now think he did.

"The stage is set for Italy to leave the EU ... according to former Tory leader William Hague."

Which led to the saying, ​Now you're cooking with gas!
