we very often hear about being run from brussels, loss of sovereignty etc etc. However, as far as i know there has never been a serious attempt to rid ourselves from ongoing domination by the USA. our foreign policy is largely decided by the pentagon and our increasingly ruthless capitalist system is owned and run by american led free market interests. at least europe is prepared to pay lip service to the idea of a 'social' aspect to their systems - though that is the part that the UK government is least likely to want.
