It’s happening:

British PM Theresa May will trigger article 50 BEFORE #EUCO Summit on March 9-10 – The Times https://t.co/Z1LDoI3Ppm

Prime Minister Theresa May set herself a deadline of “the end of March.” If this information is correct — and there’s no reason to believe it isn’t — it’ll happen even earlier than most thought. That’s an incredibly positive sign; it shows that May is confident and that her entire cabinet is supporting the triggering of Article 50 (the article of the EU treaty that allows EU member states to get out of the EU).

Here’s to hoping that other EU member states will soon follow in Britain’s footsteps! The earlier this insane European project is destroyed, the better.
