Add this to the lot: van Rompuy is Belgian. Possibly either the next EU commission or EU council apparently must be Belgian. The Dutch historically hate the Belgians.

Well the other problem with a referendum is that it offers a binary choice; in the EU or out of the EU, in the UK or out of the UK, etc, when I'm pretty confident that a lot of people would like to answer 'well, sort of in, but with some/a lot/a little more room to decide things for ourselves'. It excludes the middle, and in doing so, it's likely to disenfranchise a lot of moderates.

There is no middle ground. It's a binary choice. In the long run you cannot have two equally powerful governments running the same country.

'sort of in, sort of out' 'negotiate and reform' Just waffle invented by the British Conservative Party to confuse the above issue.


You cannot 'sort of' obey EU laws.

Aye, the EU has been abundantly clear on that.
