Umm yes well, a lot of us Brits are just as unhappy about the poodles apparent collusion with that other power block as well. I am old enough to have voted NO when the government of the time actually let the people have a say as to whether we should join the EU. Nowadays our government are making up their own minds and not letting the people have any sort of say. Let me make it clear that I have nothing at all against controlled immigration, heck when I was employed the majority of my work force were non-indigenous, many were EU citizens, and most were really good workers. At present however we have uncontrolled immigration and so many illegal immigrants that no one can sort out the mess. Our immigration system is in absolute turmoil as it is, and fresh demands on it can only cause chaos. From a personal viewpoint I am a bit bitter because I see the immigrants getting all the benefits from our system, whereas people like me, who have worked for many years paying contributions, are not eligible to claim.
The greatest part of wisdom is learning to develop the ineffable genius of extracting the "neither here nor there" out of any situation...."
