It's not isolationism
Yes, in effect, of course it is. The idea we “can do” whatever we want with no effect on any of our neighbors is childlike.
I've no problem with countries having trade deals etc with other countries
Youre looking at the situation re trade deals with a sort of fantasy that doesn’t exist apart from in your mind. They take years to form and there aren’t any on offer in case you hadn’t noticed.
But the EU is a lot more than that
Is an EU army about to be forced upon anyone? Have Turkey entered? Has the EU collapsed yet? Those things were all supposed to happen.
and gradually they were taking more and more control of our lives
Can you give me an example of an Eu law that really impacted your life?
An EU law I really liked was the ability to swim freely without being in sewage.
It just wasn't working
What we have now is a political, social, economic and moral dead end. That’s where we’ve all been led.
