Except for 'purported', and with the addition of 'on the domestic arena', that far all of us are in agreement.

"Eurosceptic in practice" is one example of your limited and simplified Anglo-French focus.

let's not play with words

Indeed let's not. Using the EU clout to push neolib "reform" is friendliness to the EU as political force. The neolibs are friendly to further EU integration and institutional development, but want it in a way that that clout for "reforms" is enhanced, and resistance paralysed. Outside France vs. Britain, they use the very same pro-business, market-faithful, no-alternative-to-globalisation arguments as arguments for remeining or entering the EU, the Euro, or adopting standards, or the Constitution, or just be enthusiastic about Europe, or to denounce nationalist opponents' views.

Maybe I should recruit you Marek, A Swedish Kind of Death, Nomad, dvx, and a couple of others to write diaries about the neolibs vs. the Eurosceptics and the debate on Europe in each of their countries of good knowledge. Maybe those would also help me explain to you what significant and qualitative difference (for the even worse) Bliar's not being Eurosceptic means at the EU level.
