Yesterday's shining heroes of Brexit have become the sorrowful heroes of today.

Article 50 governs the exit from the European Union and here there can also be no renegotiation.

I put my money on Brexit. The EU Financial Stability Commissioner, Jonathan Hill from Britain, still owes me a pound.

In the end, the British didn't vote to leave because of the euro. They're not even members of the currency union. Even the refugee crisis hardly affected the country.

It is always said that Europe is a project of the elite. That's incorrect.

The Turks know that if they want to join the EU, then they must respect our rules. We are a union of beliefs, not a bunch of squawking chickens. But if we continue talks with Erdogan, that doesn't mean we have to bow down to him.

I like Macron a lot and I very much welcome him - particularly the fact that he made Europe one of the main topics of the election debate.
