Well I don't really have what could be described as a healthy respect for the UK as it is. I see them as largely stuck in the past, and the EU did offer an avenue for positive change. However it is in many ways an affront to democracy, and I would like to see Britons use this opportunity to get important democratic reforms started. If they fail to do that then they won't have regained sovereignty.
Oh and I am very pleased that UK citizens were given the ability to give their direct decision on the matter through a referendum. I think we need (e.g. in Australia) to look at ways to give citizens a greater say over things rather than always rely on politicians who often fail to represent their constituencies.

The WIN/Gallup End of Year Survey 2013 found the US was perceived to be the greatest threat to world peace by a huge margin, with 24% of respondents fearful of the US followed by: 8% for Pakistan, and 6% for China. This was followed by 5% each for: Afghanistan, Iran, Israel, North Korea. -LINK
"That's disgusting. There were clean athletes out there that have had their whole careers ruined by people like Lance Armstrong who just bended thoughts to fit their circumstances. He didn't look up cheating because he wanted to stop, he wanted to justify what he was doing and to keep that continuing on." - Nicole Cooke
