Re: Would Scotland's leaving the union be good for (none / 1)

A strongly antagonistic policy - the kind of stuff that plenty of people are pushing for and Jerome rails against. As long as Poland views its geopolitical interests as opposed to those of the big EU players, but aligned with those of the US, it will act accordingly.

It's easy to be strongly antagonistic to Russia, but not necessarily smart.

Like I said, there's a price.

I suppose to make the Poles really happy we could be strongly antagonistic to both Germany and Russia.

lol

more seriously, the center and left may occasionally be a bit touchy about Germany but they're in favour of good relations and the idea of Germany as a close ally. It's an attitude thing. Germans don't go around celebrating their conquest of Poland and wondering why the Poles aren't properly grateful.
