Subject: RE: BS: Whither now England?
The media has spoken.

I always look for positives and hopefully this Europe wide dissatisfaction with how The EU has been managed will result in two things.

1. A complete overview of the structures, including the will of the people when it comes to widening the zone.

2. The people actually taking an interest. The opportunities to oppose expansion were ignored by constituents, media and Westminster politicians. The EU has been seen as something to do with measuring bananas.

With 50% of our actual trade and the huge numbers of multinational companies providing jobs here due to our membership, the only danger is that this could be compromised.

I heard Farage say that it is only the common market that Europe needs. I can't disagree but would point out that many of the policies he opposes are there to create a level playing field for said common market.
