'There should now be little doubt that Brexit was the greatest victory for democracy in post-war British history. At a stroke the majority of voters repudiated the defeatism of their political and cultural elites and reclaimed their national sovereignty. Today, we no longer have to pay billions of pounds annually to unelected foreign bureaucrats to make up laws designed to ruin us.

Nor have we had to arrest people for preparing to overthrow the state, as in Germany. Our government does not face accusations of spying on opposition politicians, as in Greece. It does not have to worry about Hungary vetoing financial aid to Ukraine. Moreover, our Parliament has not seen the arrest of a senior member as part of a probe into corruption by a foreign state. Finally, we are not faced with wartime reparation demands of trillions of pounds, as Germany is by Poland and Greece, who seem deadly serious in pursuing their claims.

The reality is that if British membership of the EU, given our uniquely successful national history, was totally unnatural, the EU itself is also unnatural. Europe has always been a system of competing states whose economic, technological, commercial and intellectual rivalries spurred European progress.'

looks like you'll start a 5C love in though!
