I am increasingly alarmed by the neo-liberal, right wing, authoritarian direction of the EU. Had a massive row/discussion with my husband, niece and nephew on a long drive the other day. They are vehemently anti-Brexit and believe the EU is more enlightened and supportive of its people than the U.K. It seems to me the more distant the government, the more reliant on appointees and technocrats - the less responsive and accountable to the regions it represents. As Tony Benn wisely reminded us in presenting the left wing argument for Brexit… “How do you get them out?” Looking at Ursula VDL and her EU commission minions, I am not optimistic that this massive corporate run superstate can change direction any time soon. Thank you,Thomas,for another very insightful article. PS. I’ve shared it with my niece et al. 😉

Starmer's Labour is not centre-left, it is a soft Conservative party as opposed to the hard Conservative Party. The real socialists, Corbyn, was stitched up with the help the traitor Starmer. Both the UK and EU are turning increasingly into fascistic projects, with some "liberalism" paint slapped on the walls in a vain attempt to cover up that reality.
