Although I wonder if a majority would still support it if the poll was explicit that rejoining the single market required us to accept freedom of movement

Adopting the Euro is not much of a caveat because it would be a necessary prerequisite of our rejoining.

Poland and Sweden (amongst others) are obligated to join but have absolutely no intention. Sweden even had a referendum on it and refused.

But you can't really campaign for rejoining by openly saying you're going to flout your obligations.

There’s a difference between already being a member and declining to join, which we along with Denmark and as you say Poland and Sweden declined to do. And joining the organisation anew as of 2024.

Whilst Poland officially joined after the launch of the single currency (in 2004) its accession was ratified many years before

The EU has no mechanism for expelling members, therefore it has no leverage over current members

A prospective member? Different Kettle of Poissons

You’re a very peculiar individual if you don’t mind me saying. You must admit that there’s quite the disparity between advocating for summary execution of channel migrants and arguing that you can make a good public pitch for the free movement of people (open borders amongst the what would be again 27 states)

Not at all. Those coming on boats are illegal. Mutual free movement between citizens of friendly countries with similar values is a great thing.

More importantly I'm selfish, losing freedom of movement makes it impossible for me to travel in the Schengen area more than 90 days in a 180 day period.

Right. Booked tickets for my birthday purely on the strength of this review.
If it's no good then I'm blaming you for spoiling my birthday

Another one who comes under the Didn’t know he was still Alive category


Certainly assumed he was a lot older than he was


Thought Make me Smile was late 60s and he was in his thirties when he recorded it


Oh well…soz

I think I knew it was a 70s song.
Had no idea if he was still alive though.

Well presumably that's only for the first half?
