Privately, loads of German leaders feel like this. What's significant, and this alone is an agrument against Brexit, is that they are now emboldend to say it in public. For many decades German politicians haven't dared criticise Britain or the British 'ruling elite' using this kind of language. One can't overestimate the incredible damage Brexit has done to Britain's prestige and standing in Europe and further afield. That a country chooses to do this voluntarily, to undermine its own 'brand' so recklessly and seemingly without even understanding what's happening, is ####ing extraordinary. This is the UK pissing away its 'good name' and 'goodwill' for absolutely notning. I can't see how it'll ever recover. Such humiliation and degradation for no gain at all.
