    Yeah, the bets were in on the £ already as it was way overvalued.

    The seeds of Brexit were sown when we didn’t get a referendum on Maastricht. That changed the game considerably and even further with Nice and Lisbon. It meant that regulating with common law would be replaced with Roman civil law, which is much more prescriptive and is unable to be changed by precedent.

    I’m just in favour of decentralisation, every time power has been centralised in Europe it has ended badly.
