Good piece in The Spectator:

Out - and into the world

"Since 1975 the EU has mutated in exactly the way we then feared and now resembles nothing so much as the Habsburg Empire in its dying days. A bloated bureaucracy that has outgrown all usefulness. A parliament that represents many nations, but with no democratic legitimacy."

"Michael Gove revealed how, as a cabinet member, he regularly finds himself having to process edicts, rules and regulations that have been framed at European level. Laws that no one in Britain had asked for, and which no one elected to the House of Commons has the power to change. What we refer to as British government is increasingly no such thing. It involves the passing of laws written by people whom no one in Britain elected, no one can name and no one can remove."

Simple comment on Carroll's latest cliché riddled rant full of empty "working class warrior" rhetoric - IF {BIG IF at that} everything you say there is true, I do not doubt for a second that YOU are idiot enough to believe it, care to tell us all why hundreds of thousands of people have flocked to THIS country rather than settle in the idyll that is Europe?

23rd June 2016 hopefully the day that Great Britain votes to leave the EU - then you will see how amenable to change the EU becomes.
