    What do you mean “the EU doesn’t work”? It’s got 27 nations working to shared values, it’s doing great things to minimise or avoid future conflict between those nations, it has full freedom of movement between nations, a relatively common currency and full open borders for trade on a common basis. It is investing in the poorer nations to ultimately all be able to share fully in its success. It applies strong regulation that everyone has to abide by and has very good (relative to most anywhere else) environmental values. As a large world trading block it is able to negotiate and agree trade agreements worldwide and in return seek higher regulatory and environmental standards from its trading partners. It really means something to me to be considered European and having my European status torn away by inward looking, little englanders is really galling. It’s been said before but Brexit has made me embarrassed and ashamed of how low we have stooped as a country.

    Apart from that what have the Romans ever done for us 😊
