2:30 PM 카지노 게임 컬렉션“ 4:00 PM
In 2016, the UK voted by a majority of 52 percent to leave the European Union. 카지노 게임 컬렉션˜Brexit카지노 게임 컬렉션™ the Prime Minister declared, 카지노 게임 컬렉션˜means Brexit카지노 게임 컬렉션™. Three years later the project is still not defined and no form of it has succeeded in getting through Parliament. The resulting political turmoil has pushed the largely unwritten constitution to its limits and may break up the United Kingdom itself. Brexit comes in several, incompatible, versions, from hyper-globalism to national protectionism. It is predicated on the return to a unitary nation-state, an English concept that contradicts the vision of the UK (especially since 1999) as a plurinational, post-sovereign union.
