I think the problem is we dont know anymore what europe is and where we want to go.
France wants Europe beeing a big France, Britain wants A freemarket and improve its image in the muslim world by pushing to accept Turkey in Europe.
If we dont know what is europe, any power/authority given to this organisation is as a blank check.
that s clearly can work longer like that, our people have to define what we want and make clear decision, in or out.
the Labour party could become much more euro-phile. Europe has turned US-phobic and public sentiment in the UK is (slowly) recognising that europe is the only other game in town. This is convenient for the Labour party which, despite it being mired in responsibility for Iraq, is more obviously euro-phile than the Tories who seem to be going in almost the opposite direction.
So in the next few months expect the UK to be much more engaged in Europe, building bridges will all and sundry. And that will change the dynmaic considerably.
I imagine that the suggestion about taking just the first chapter of the constituion and running with that will be taken up, the rest of it will be dumped as inconvenient.
All of which will make Juncker's sentiments into yesterday's news. keep to the Fen Causeway
