United Kingdom: Brexi, European "black hole"
The new extension to an agreed Brexit does not change the dynamics of crisis and uncertainty installed. Last Thursday the European Union has reached an agreement to postpone for a second time out of the United Kingdom of the block: will no longer be the 12 April but 31 October.
British Prime Minister, Theresa May, will return to London with more time to seek out an agreement with the Labor opposition Jeremy Corbyn. It is recalled that the Parliament has already rejected its proposals on three occasions overwhelmingly.
In the EU there were two sides: supporters to gain time to "see what happens" in the United Kingdom, led by Angela Merkel and those who wanted a deadline to close the issue once, Emmanuel Macron insisted; is the first time in three years of negotiations that Germany and France have opposed positions. Finally, the 27 Members of the imperialist bloc opted for a slightly longer extension, obviously they have little hope that agreement can be reached May.
Donald Tusk, President of the European Council wanted to postpone the departure until within a year, but also it manifested itself in accordance with the solution found, or rather resigned, so he said "It's always better to have a little something to much of anything".
Watching the comings and goings that are from the referendum in June Brexit 2016, than PM, ni Jean-Claude Junker, President of the European Commission, They dared to take for the new definitive departure.
The extension requires the UK to take part in European Parliament elections next 26 of May, If May fails to consummate the exit before the 22 the same month. Thus, a European Parliament would be elected with 751 members, among which there will be British MPs that after four months will have to leave their seats.
After two years working with a network of eight radio telescopes located in different continents, the international scientific community has taken a giant step: a 26.000 Light years, in the galaxy M87, He has photographed a black hole. With a camera pointing towards Brussels and Westminster would have obtained the same result: register the black hole in which the EU and the UK are.
The end of Brexit remains a mystery to the people involved, for their jobs, their legal status, for those who study and work within the limits of the UK and the EU. Break with the imperialist bloc is a necessity, so it is based on the mobilization and driving to defend the interests of workers and the people.
As we stated in the last note of Anticapitalists Network (1) on Brexit: "The output should not be led by the bourgeoisie and its governments, not aim to end the system of capitalist profits. It is key that the working class do not be carried away by the parties representing the powerful, it is mobilized independently and Face the construction of an alternative revolutionary socialist politics”.
