the eu definately is in better shape then import dependent britain,

i dont think a common currency is important part of EU

What will happen to the EU if anti-EU nationalists win a majority of the seats in the EU elections? EU strongholds (France and Germany) are losing ground. Italy, Hungary, Poland and others are become quite hostile to this expanded view of the EU. Spain and Greece are turning away.

This spring's elections will bring huge changes. It may not be the death of the current version of he EU - but, even if it survives, it will be weakened terribly.

Brexit is just fine. The UK will easily find trading partners to make up for anything the EU foolishly refuses to sell them. Whatever happens the EU member states will not be united and will not be able to organize a united front against the UK.

the anti EH nationalists will simply form a nationalist EU

True. But they would still trade with the UK. I don't see them trying to embargo or tariff UK goods and services. Trade will continue much it has been.

why should they trade with the UK after it publicly expressed its will to not support the community?

and secondly trading means that both parties have valuable goods, not just one (EU) ever heard of the UK foreign trade deficit?

thats completely ridiculous.

The EU trades with the US, Russia, China, Taiwan, Japan, Korea, Israel and many other non-EU countries. The UK would be just one more.

Having a trade deficit doesn't mean you don't product goods and services worthy of export. You still need to create the funds in order to buy the imports.
