You could say exactly the same about our own Government who continuously spunk money on obviously unworkable ideas and are equally detached from the issues they legislate on - we're not exactly seeing an improvement in policy-making since leaving.

The other question is then whether avoiding one set of sh*t policy makers so we can trust our own set of sh*t policy makers is worth shrinking the economy by 4% and missing out on tens of billions a year in tax revenue.

I think the point is that it is easier to change the direction of travel if we only have to vote in or out our own elected MPs. Another layer of decision makers far removed from the UK makes things more difficult, particularly when two dozen other countries may think different things.

None of the current parties particularly have my support - the whole system needs tearing up and a move to PR which should then help break away from this s***show of a 2-party system where most people votes count for nothing.

We barely live in a democracy.

I’d struggle to name anyone of the current lot - I guess when your position is broadly ‘this system doesn’t work’ it’s hard to find anyone within said system that you can get behind. They’re all playing a game that I think is broken.
