Yes we are mugs when it comes to the EU principally because unlike the great swathe of our European brethren we rigorously apply ALL the rules rather than the ones that culturally fit our psyche. Further we have singularly failed since we shoe horned our way in to the club to show any real sort of leadership, oh we have lectured and hectored our sister nations, but we have singularly failed to win hearts and minds in trying to move them away from the social democratic social market they mostly espouse. This failure has marginalised us over the last 40 years, with successive administrations in Westminster failing to learn the lessons of the past and do anything different. Unless we now start to show empathy and leadership the Franco-German axis will continue to work solely in their own interest rather than for the benefit of all.
