On Making the EU and the Euro irreversible.

 
 Peter Schrank

“Institutional reforms are needed to the EU ‘to make the European Union and the euro irreversible’. The EU should have fewer commissioners but a more powerful commission, which should become a ‘real European government’"…

“Although it is not anticipated that the precise issues rehearsed by the Future Group will be raised at the European Council in 28 June, they are very much in accord with the line being taken both by the "quartet" and Merkel.

Furthermore, the Zukunftsgruppe (
the "Future Group")  has not yet finished its deliberations. It is aiming to present a final report in the early autumn, in good time for the expected IGC on a new treaty on fiscal and political union. The next consultations are in Spain in July and then with the new French foreign minister Laurent Fabius.

Should some or all of their proposed changes be adopted, they would undoubtedly trigger referendums in many EU countries, and most certainly in the UK, as they go far beyond just the eurozone, and go to the heart of the power structures in the EU.

But even if they are not adopted, the fact that such changes are being considered indicates the general direction of travel. This should be taken as a warning. The final shape of the United States of Europe is beginning to emerge and, in the nature of things, it can only be a matter of time before the "colleagues" try to turn it into reality.”
