Yes every country has its own government but it is becoming less of the one making the rules.
The UK was just being used as a handy cash cow in my opinion and once that stops how will the EU continue as Germany can't support the rest of the EU.
I really believe this will be the start of the unravelling of the EU as those unelected 5 just pushed us too far and the people pushed back.
