Well there's another non surprise! The responses to my post are precisely as I anticipated. I could have written them myself!

It just demonstrates the complete lack of understanding and integrity in the group of hardline "Brexit at all costs" who hang around here.

Yes, we have left, so it cannot be "cancelled" but with the 2016 referendum result now demonstrably compromised any responsible government would ensure that it be reversed. The fact is that Mrs May had been given a report by GCHQ which suggested that the referendum result could not be trusted and recommended re-running it. She bottled it and decided the political consequences were too high. Look at where that has ended up? A government led by Johnson, controlled by Cummings, and headed towards a no deal final exit.

You may think the ship has sailed but it's not over the horizon and it's back in the sights. With the opposition now led by a sensible politician who gives the appearance of trustworthiness a few years in the wilderness means nothing.

I am telling you! We will be back and today marks the day when the turning point was reached.

Exactly. There was a good article in the Guardian about what went wrong in the EU over the virus response, up to a point it all made sense e.g. national self interest and not giving a damn about their neighbours plight.

It then went off the rails with the conclusion that the solution was for the Commission to take more power away from the national governments. They never miss a trick.

And so the Superstate evolution continues

Except does it? I see a lot of hot air around this but it appears at the moment only to be a proposal and more about them taking over an existing tax than levying a new one.

But as always, keen to be educated.

I bet they are not. I am going to stick my head out here and say this proposal will fall part. It is mere window dressing to divert attention away from what this supposed fund is all about i.e propping up French and German banks.

However, I am always willing to scoff humble pie if proven wrong.

It fascinates me. And I always said that if it truly offered a Pan-European future then I was open to persuasion. But it has not.

It is rotten to the core. I accept that I have far to much interest in the daily machinations of real politik and that the EU throws up so many interesting questions and contradictions but the UK is so far well out of it.

Just the utter stupidity of the Euro is proof for me that many of the leading lights of the European 'ideal' are beyond comprehension. And it has condemend millions of Europeans to poverty, reducing countries to effective vasel states. The biggest peace time disaster ever imposed on Europe.

Give me a genuine Pan-European ideal, with a glorious vision of the worlds greatest continent acting as one from the western most beachs of Ireland to the very edges of the Russian borders (and why should Russia not be included?) and I am all ears.

But what we have in Brussels is ludicrous. Just the farce of how it ups sticks and moves to Strasbourg for a few days every month is the only proof you need.
