Another proof that Brexit is one of the best thing that ever happened to the EU.
We are finally moving forward without the UK blocking any further political integration.
Yup.
Fairly sure this was being reported as in the works before Brexit - I think Leave even made hey with it during the campaign.
You'd also have to assume there were more obstacles than the UK if it's ended up a damp squib, as the link above appears to suggest.
The UK was always a big obstacle.
EDIT : except for a brief period under Blair. Then Iraq happened.
