    I like this point particularly.

    As Roy Jenkins shrewdly put it in 1999, there have only ever been “two coherent British attitudes to Europe”. Either we should wholeheartedly embrace what it was always intended to be, ever since Monnet set it in train six decades ago. Or we should negotiate a “reasonably amicable withdrawal”. Otherwise we are doomed to remain just a “foot-dragging, constantly complaining member” of something most of us instinctively distrust and dislike.

    Britain will never want to be in a federalised Europe.

    • I'm a Torygraph subscriber*, but I'd take eveything I read in there re: EU membership with a hearty dose of Salt.

      * it was on offer, ok?

    • I think the facts are pretty undeniable in that article D.kingkong
    • The article has 9 points of political bullshittery, sure - some British politician's blame, some not. So what?

      What's NOT being told here?
