The joke's on EU: A cartoon history of the European Union - 1

The joke's on EU: A cartoon history of the European Union - 1

All students interested in British civilization should look at this series of humorous cartoons. They have all been produced over the years to comment on Britain's relationship with the European Union, and the desire of many British people not to be excessively European. The attitude of British governments to the European Union has always been affected by the fact that there are three bases to British trade - trade with the United States, trade with the Commonwealth, and trade with Europe. Europe was thus never the exclusive priority. Click on the link above to look at the humorous cartoons.
