Oh, I see.
I'm still pro-EU but now for economic reasons, and due to the fact Brexiters just hark back to the Empire instead of talking about the future. They don't seem to recognise that countries that Britain exploited e.g. India can now exploit Britain."You’re just a bad memory who doesn’t know when to go away" JRComment

Plenty did it.
Another reason why leaving the EU is barmy. If we try to join again we might have to take the Euro and that's not going to happen. If we stay we keep the benefits and the GBP.See You Next TuesdayComment
