I was talking about their structural integrity, the integrity of their borders and single market. But if you want to go down that route the EU have shown more moral integrity too. That's because European nations opted to put the needs of Ireland, a small country, ahead of demands of the UK, a bigger,wealthier country. That shows the protection that EU membership affords, and it also proves that national power can be strengthened in Brussels, where you seem to insist it can only be debilitated there.

I got no idea why you think I'm advocating a general strike matt, I'm advocating a confirmatory vote by the british people because parliament has run out of time to make a decision.

The EU is far from perfect but it will contribute a lot more to the UK than the likes of banks,farage,bojo,francois,rees mogg and all their trump/putin friends ever will. I've got no idea how its going to pan out, but if its like you say it will then one day we will all be grateful.
