Good - let them feel even more. They are all about centralized control and power - this is in their grasp but pesky nations like Britain and Catalonia are spoiling it for everyone. From Associated Press:
The Latest: EU official chides regional splits on Spain trip
European Commission President Jean-Claude Juncker says nationalist urges are “a poison” which harm the European Union’s efforts to speak with one voice on the world stage.
In what appeared to be indirect rebukes of an effort by some Catalan leaders to achieve their region’s independence from Spain, Juncker said during a trip to the Spanish city of Salamanca that nobody has the right to undo the EU’s model of coexistence.
Jean-Claude Juncker is a classic career bureaucrat - studied law but never practiced it. Been in politics his whole life. The head of the EU is elected by the European Parliament, not by the people of Europe. Big difference as the European Parliament is a self-referential circle-jerk. They isolate themselves and proclaim to know everything about everything when in rerality, their policies and edicts do more harm than good and do not help the common citizen. It is no wonder that the people of England voted themselves out, the people of Catalonia are next and Italy is not that far away from doing the same.
