I look at all of these and become reflexive. This is probably the straw that will break the camel's back (no pun intended). Well orchestrated plan or whatever you think it is, the EU will crumble and without unity, there will be no more Europe as we know it. UK wants out and being positioned where they are, why linger?! Germany is a bully for the rest of the bunch. Eastern Europe has a different view on most of the EU's mandates. Spain, Italy and probably France wanted an out anyways. The peaceful, little ones like Holland, Belgium, Switzerland etc wouldn't matter. And that's how the cookie crumbles. The question remains: what's next?
