Old Europe vs. New
You can be pretty sure that the next development here will be a Franco-German snit, and a threat by France, Germany, Belgium, and Luxembourg (you know, the chocolate-making nations), to form a core EU with more and better rights from the rest of the union ("Four legs good! Two legs better!").
The Irish will come running, afraid to be cut off from the Franco-German tax teat they've been sucking on lo these many years. They'll contribute some criticism of the Poles, who they see as deadly rivals for the tax teat.
Meanwhile, Eurocrats will continue to enrich themselves off Brussels, Europeans will continue to groan under a huge tax burden, their best thinkers will keep coming to the US, the muslims will keep up the takeover of Northern Europe (where's Roland when you need him?), the remaining Jews will have to start packing.
Aaach! What a sick continent. And they seem themselves as *our* moral superiors. Superior to whale shit on the bottom of the ocean, and that's about it.
