    Yes, as I choose to know what's going on, I'm a saddo.

    No wonder we're so far up the creek.

    While I don't want to get into a mammoth debate on the subject, Article 17 sums it up fairly well.

    Declaration concerning primacy

    The Conference recalls that, in accordance with well settled case law of the Court of Justice of the
    European Union, the Treaties and the law adopted by the Union on the basis of the Treaties have
    primacy over the law of Member States, under the conditions laid down by the said case law.
    Translation: Our new laws trump your old ones. All your base are belong to us.

    It's most convenient for the government to be able to say "sorry, it's the EU making us do it" that's for sure.

    In theory we will try to "shake it all about" - the it being the terms under which UK stays in the EU.

    No-one stands in the way of the EU. Syzira got elected the Greece to tell the EU where to go. EU said no. Syzira held a poll asking if Greece should accept EU conditions. People said no. One week later Syzira accepted the EU conditions against the will of the people.

    I will vote for leaving the EU. But I expect my vote to not be counted as I am voting the wrong way.
