Portugal is lost forever. We will have no identity.

A proud country lost to socialism. Next stop, communism!

No surprises at all.
Communism & socialism are so indelibly imprinted into the mindset of many Portuguese it will take some time yet for real change. Progress is a slow process!

Imagine ,how Portugal will look in 2 years time ...

This will ensure that Portugal will remain a vassal state to the EU and do whatever the EU big players want done. But the people have spoken and so let the Portuguese enjoy their subservience. After all, all the insignificant nations in the EU do the same. In a short time, Portugal won't even have a separate identity and that also goes for a bunch of other nations that won't be named but everyone knows who they are by their genuflections to the EU high priestess.

Ignorance and
