To me, the article is a thinly designed advert that fails to even examine the reality, peferring a list of objectives on which the EU has provably failed on most.

We knew exactly why we voted leave: for example the impossibility of the euro that beggars most southern states. It is remainers in my experience who have little concept of the reality of the institutional and anti democratic dysfunctionality of far too big a group of countries that cannot agree to save their lives, except on the answer no.

In return I would ask of remainers : Can you even list the previous currency union failures? ( which is all of them) do you even know the meaning of target 2 or ecb issuer limits? The silliness of ECB collateral rules and how they will collapse Italian banks? If not - remainers certainly have no basis to claim beexiteers don't know!
It is because we have a true understanding and impression we voted to leave.

This is a nice article, it's a pity that a lot of pro-EU politicians had not being doing, for the last twenty years, what Schams El Ghoneimi suggests. Maybe many of the misunderstandings and false impressions of the EU, would not have gained the traction that they did.

Alas too late now.
