EU: Should the UK Leave or Stay?

[abaris]

Are smaller and smaller political entities better or worse?  Should everyone in a country look alike, talk alike and think alike?  I find what amounts to a wave of tribalism in Europe to be troubling.

It's the not so good old nationalism. They raised their ugly heads in the wake of the crisis of 2008 and first had their field day with Portugal, Spain or Greece. Slackers the lot of them. Then they moved on to muslims. In fact they didn't have to move at all, since muslims always were their new jews. Hated by the primitives for all kinds of reasons, sometimes using the very same old vocabulary, so that if you replaced muslim with jew you would get a perfect nazi speech. Often times religiously motivated on the outside, sometimes, as is the case with Poland or Hungary, also from the inside. Apart from fighting anyone not of the purest blood, they also constantly invoke the judeo christian heritage, which is especially ironic in my country, since many prominent members of our resident rightwingers are known to have neonazi and Holocaust denier roots.
