The 27 other countries are distinctly not dependent on the UK being part of the EU so she, the bar lady, is on a base level wrong. But the 27 other countries are themselves divided with a propensity within themselves, within their domestic politics, to be dissatisfied with the EU. This, no matter where you stand, rightly worries the EU leaders or more precisely the Commission. There is no longer any talk of EU expansion and the eastern countries particularly appear to be moving that way. Which makes no mention of domestic politics in Germany, Holland and elsewhere. Gone are the days of EU conformity , sadly. Its now just negotiation as to what the future looks like and it doesn't, long term, look like the same ol' EU anywhere.
