DESCRIPTION:After the ‘seismic’ shock of ‘Brexit’ a re-appraisal i
 s taking place in the EU concerning the future direction the remaining 27 
 member states could take. There are three possibilities: ‘more Europe’
 \, ‘less Europe’ or ‘business as usual’.   Donald Tusk\, the presi
 dent of the European Council\, in a recent speech he argued that in order 
 to prevent the second scenario\, the EU must not attempt the first. This p
 resentation argues that the feared break-up of the EU is more likely to be
  prevented if Europe’s political leaders were to ignore Tusk’s advice 
 and provide a more constructive rival narrative of political integration.\
