Well...not wanting to start WWIII but I think Tony the poodle just about sums it up. The British government's eyes are always firmly fixed on what suits their 'special friend' ;o) The British people couldn't possibly be in favour of anything European, since they're fed a steady diet of anti-European propaganda by most political parties, and all the media. I think the rest of Europe would be fairly happy if the UK pulled out of the EU altogether, the rest of us could get on with things. It would be a lot more honest than the situation as it is now, where it appears (and I'm talking only about perceptions) that they're in there purely to protect the interests of another power-block, to whom a united Europe is a big threat. *Sits back and waits to be attacked from all sides............
