In a pointed intervention in the election campaign, Donald Tusk says Brexit will leave the UK 'an outsider, a second-rate player'.

"In this match, we had added time, we are already in extra time, perhaps it will even go to penalties?"

Speaking at the opening ceremony of the 2019/2020 academic year at the College of Europe, Mr Tusk added:"I have heard repeatedly from Brexiteers that they wanted to leave the European Union to make the United Kingdom global again, believing that only alone, it can truly be great."Only as part of a united Europe can the UK play a global role, only together can we confront, without any complexes, the greatest powers of this world.

I think I will ahve to 'give up' because the people voted for it. I would like to remain, but we have to accept that the majority don't

There was a referendum. The people voted. Some won, some lost. Now the losers, failing to overturn the result, are trying to block execution of the result. Sounds like treason to me.

And people blame Russia for interfering in foreign politics.

he has no right to have a say on this matter

Tusk needs to not meddle in uk government policy and sort his own house out! donaldtusk

The agenda by eucopresident and co to extend to 31st has become clear. They knew election likely and hoped somehow a remain government happens. His comments will inspire more leave voters to vote Cons/BrEXIT & then he’s fucked. Karma is coming Tusk.

Is this interference from a foreign politician?

Remainers go mad about President Trump commenting on Brexit, happy to have Tusk and Clinton weighing in on their side though

Indeed! Don't give up stopping Brexit! Disaster awaits and the sheep who vote for it will be the first to complain.

And people wonder why we voted out 😳🙈zzzz zzzzzz

Cue a lot of Remainers whining about “foreign interference”.....oh wait....

Funny looking Russian

Sorry democracy is important to us Brits I know the Eu doesn’t care about democracy but we do. And democracy will be implemented its to important to ignore.

We really need your money!

Whatever, Tusk knows more EU countries will break away, it is the EU that will be 2nd rate and the UK will thrive

And that’s why we need to leave . They do not respect democrat elections unless it suits them

Idiot

Tusk is right. Any idea that the U.K. will become more of a global power house by leaving the EU is nonsense. Few cared about Brexit 4-5 years ago... leaving the EU was barely a top 10 GE issue. Brexit is just a cover story for the Tories to stop losing votes to the right wing

How to annoy the British people .. EU telling us what to do again especially Donald Tusk... These people Clinton, tusk etc really believe they are Gods and there word is the divine word ... NOT.

eucopresident keep your nose out of our business. Nothing to do with you, you just want our money !!!

Pr ick

What he is actually saying is: Give up democracy

Well sky hasn't, purdah seems to of been thrown out of the window.

I assure you chum! We will never give up! We WILL leave your corrupt protectionist 2nd rate not-so-superstate! This fire cannot and will not be put out until our 2016 ref vote is upheld VoteConservative2019 BackBoris

Keep out!!!

What a desperate desperate man. The eu economy is in freefall and he needs us to prop it up. He should of thought about this when Cameron come begging for change. donaldtusk

Trying to ruin our democratic process this is why we need to get away from these people

We have too because we’ve given up on you !

Why would he not want brexit? Oh yeah, it would hurt the eu.

So we have - Trump interfering our election, turning up on Farage's radio show - Russians/Putin own Boris Johnson and the Tory Party - Hillary Clinton poking her nose in about Russian money - Donald Tusk getting involved The UK is a banana republic......

A statement of desperation

This man is talking bollicks. Of course, the EU are not worried about the £350 billion of exports to the U.K.. also we are the third biggest contributor to its defence budget. The EU is crapping itself about tthe U.K. leaving. He should shut up

An incorrigible Brexit. Sad.

the EU needs to stop interfering in the internal affairs of a soon to be ex member state

Well we are not get a true brexit anyway under BorisJohnson. The EUCouncil will still have control in the UK for yrs, gets a huge payout. Bet joswinson asked him to speak for her to encourage LibDems support!!

Is he allowed to say that during an election campaign? What does he mean? If the Tories win, he doesn’t allow the deal? If Labour wins he won’t renegotiate a deal for them?

How dare you ! See they are not our Friends Boris ! They have never accepted we are leaving ! Why ? Because they want our money that’s why ? Sod off tusk you disgusting little man you brought these millions of illegals into Europe now you can fund them ! Europe is in mayhem

Butt out Tusk

Message for Tusk: stop 🛑 interfering in a nation states’ business

Don't want to stop Brexit I want it to happen.

All he wants is our money. If we were some two-bit eastern bloc state trying to leave he wouldn't give a fig.

His comments show one thing, he like the Remainers do not respect the DEMOCRATIC WILL of the British people We determine the way forward that the UK will take. 17.4 million UK citizens voted leave, correct me if I'm wrong but only 750 MEPs voted for you.

🎶Don't give up cos you have friends🎶

donaldtusk Why don’t you SHUT UP? The MAJORITY who voted 🗳 in our 2016 Referendum voted 🗳 to LEAVE your beloved E.U. Dictatorship 🤬 not REMAIN in it. You keep giving extensions because you think you can keep us. WRONG! We don’t WANT to be part of you anymore! GET OVER IT! 🤬

Meddling in our affairs

The UK absolutely doesn’t deserve this classy guy having spent three years acting like louts on a foreign stag do

Ever the Democrat

Brexiteers be like..

Stop interfering in our elections, Tusk. You’re as bad as those cyber hackers.
