brexit

I'm old enough to have voted in the first ever UK-wide referendum in 1975. I was one of the 67% who responded positively to the question “Do you think the UK should stay in the European Community (Common Market)?” Times have changed and that very healthy 2/3 majority is unlikely to be repeated!

Juncker's half-hearted support for democracy

Body:

Jean-Claude Juncker said on Wednesday (23 April) that renegotiating the UK’s European Union membership would be one of his priorities if he wins the job of Commission President, EurActiv reports. Green leading candidates Ska Keller and José Bové are not surprised that the conservatives’ candidate seems to lean towards a more disintegrated EU, and sees talking to the Eurosceptic forces in the UK first as a priority.
