Only a rightoid nutjob could look at the colossal shitshow that is brexit and be like "See that? That's what I want."

A spokesman from the extreme right party AfD once got cited with the words: "Je schlechter es Deutschland geht, desto besser für die AfD." (The worse Germany is doing, the better it is for the AfD.) I think this highlights the underlying reasons why the AfD wants Germany to leave EU.
