But surely you want "strength in numbers"

 

There is no strength is loosing control of your own country and being ruled by unelected officials.

 

You lost, good sense won the day, get over it, you sound like a two year old complaining its not fair that its not ice-cream for tea every day  

I'm ruled by how many MP's who don't live or work where I live an work..  If I was goin to I'd be complaining that an MP from erm, Cornwall had somethin to do with my Tax's.. but I don't cause I understand I belong to a greater entity than myself..

Sounds like you would never be happy, so no loss there.

 

Many of us accept we need policies that take into account our fellow country men, surely we have more in common with them that those living 1000's of miles away.

I define the peoples of Europe as people I have something in common with, history culture and tradition..  I might include New Zealand Australia Canada and the US...   

 

I don't see myself as a little Islander like the Brexiteers seem to do... my horizons stretch way beyond our own shores...

Being in the EU limits our trade with other nations, your simply a "little Europeaner" us brexiteers are internationalists

When was Catalonia?..  anyway whats that to with it..   the principle is, if you think you'd be better off breaking away from a country you aught be able to do it... if it makes you richer that is.. or for the hell of it if you want.
