Mired to undemocratic, unaccountable body of bureaucrats

Charles Moore doesn't think much of the EU and thinks less so of the bailouts, which will ultimately achieve nothing but delay the inevitable - failure of the EU. But even though he admits that it is undemocratic and unaccountable to the people of Europe, he doesn't advocate being rid of it entirely.

Rubberchicken, on the other hand, speaks for me: his response to Charles

No.

I want my country back. I want our fishing waters back. I want laws in this country to come from people subject to my vote. I don't want to give the EU my taxes. I don't want their regulations. I don't want their courts to control ours, I don't want EU arrest warrents lifting UK citizens from their homes, I want my borders controlled, I want an end to human rights laws that help no one but criminals, I want regional assemblies to close down as they are a sink hole for taxes just to keep pygmy politicians in a job, I want Ireland set free from unpayable debts, I want an end to referenda from which only one answer is accepted, I want to stop paying £1 billion just to keep 700 MEPs in clover, I want an end to people like Neil Kinnock being retired to the EU as a reward for failure in domestic politics. In short, I want out.

Are we ready? We never wanted it in the first place.

Am I ready for an implosion of UK banks in return for the death of the EU? You bet. Bring it on.

I would rather be poor and free, than shackled.
