BREXIT: EU Warns UK That ‘Size Matters’ 

The three principal officers of the European Union have said in a parting note to Brexit UK that ‘size matters’ and claimed the union is the only bloc that can address global issues.

They made the comments Friday as Britain’s Member of the European Parliament (MEP) prepared to vacate the European Parliament for the final time, as the MEPs marched out carrying banners with the inscription, “Brexodus Express”

The UK is set to leave the EU at 11pm Friday night, since the union could not resist accepting the agitation of Britons to forfeit its membership.

The European Commission president, Ursula von der Leyen, president of the European Council, Charles Michel and president of the European Parliament David Sassoli led the delegation as they released a joint article to mark the memorable Brexit.

The EU delegates reiterated the commissions ‘fondness for the United Kingdom’, as they praised the UK for their “creativity, ingenuity, culture, and traditions”.

The delegates argued that UK cannot resolve global affairs, as their exit from the bloc will reduce the global influence of the country.

Reacting, MEP, Ann Widdecombe said: ‘The MEPs leaving here today, our duty is done, our harvest is home and now we’re off.’

The EU officials however told The Times that Brexit will ‘mark a new dawn for Europe’ as well for the UK.

The statement reads in part: “brought us closer together as nations, as institutions and as people.”

“They have reminded us all that the EU is more than a market or economic power but stands for values that we all share and defend,’ the trio wrote.

“This is why the member states of the EU will continue to join forces and build a common future.

“In an age of great power competition and turbulent geopolitics, size matters.

“No country alone can hold back the tide of climate change, find the solutions to the digital future or have a strong voice in the ever-louder cacophony of the world. But together, the EU can.”
