Thunder Bolt
Silly old bat
Bound to be a reaction to the fear of change. Understandable in Ireland with their history. It is interesting that a lot of the Irish think Brexit is a mistake. I would totally agree. It is a great pity we were put through all this, the EU should have seen the warning signs years ago and stopped their march to a huge, uncontrollable superstate. Most British people do not and have never wanted such a state, so it is hardly surprising there was a backlash.
I think that just because people don't wish to leave the EU, that it doesn't necessarily tally that someone 'supports' it.
We were told by Farage and his ilk that once we made the decision to leave, France and Ireland would soon follow. They haven't. As the polls, elections etc have proved, they have increased their like for the EU.
There is no uncontrollable superstate. Any one of the 28 countries had a veto. We didn't join the Euro. If it had been a superstate, we would have been made to join.
