I am increasingly of the view that the era of "eurofudges" may be over and that the time has come for a much simpler and clearer statement of where the EU is going, and how it is to be governed.
Is this a bad thing?
Who knows - if the statement were clear enough and positive enough, people might even vote for it.
I mean, you're in the Euro and you're not in Schengen only because of the open border agreement with the UK. When the capital development of a country becomes a by-product of the activities of a casino, the job is likely to be ill-done. — John M. Keynes
