The failure of the European Socialist Experiment is obvious and it manifests itself in some shocking numbers:

-It is a completely unnatural union with very little real economic, business or trade pattern rationale stretching across 28 very different countries.

-Overall real unemployment is about 30%, and even higher amongst youth in many countries [Spain, Greece, Portugal, Iikely Italy].

-There has been no austerity aka budget cutting [just very marginal cuts in total spending, some billions out of collective budgets in the trillions]. No labor, market or capital reforms have been enacted to counteract tepid economic growth and high unemployment. This is a travesty.

-Average net wealth per head is far lower than in North America, about 30-50% lower.

-EU per capital debt is now 21.000 Euros per person and going quickly to 25.000, with Greece and some countries at 31.000 per person. It is essentially bankrupt.

-Living standards are far lower, when compared to North America, along with GDP per capita [about 25% lower].

-Due to trade distortions and keeping out non EU products and services, the cost of foodstuffs and consumables is 20-30% higher than it should be.

-Common Agriculture Policy which protects French and German farmers, has resulted in prices for all agro-products being much higher than they should be.

-When you add in quotas on fishing, farming and restrictive regulations on the same, you have a food price crisis, with the average food bill some 2x higher than in North America.

-The Euro has gone from 1.68 to the US$ in 2008, to 1.10 now and will fall far below, 1$. This means that the real cost of living in the Eutopia will skyrocket yet again.

-Open borders and the Moslem invasion. By 2050 many German prognosticators predict that Turks and Moslems will be a majority in the Germany. This will be replicated across the Continent. What sentient person in the UK wants to be a part of a future Fascist Islamic Caliphate ?

Add in further doses of reality. Entire industries in the UK have been wiped out including; shipping, steel, farming, fishing and refining of many raw materials. EU regulations, quotas and taxes, have conspired to either limit British involvement [farming, fishing], or so completely distort trade and material flows as to make the industry uncompetitive [steel, ship building, refining]. Hundreds of thousands of UK jobs have been lost due to EU policy.

Layer on the socialist tyranny from Brussels, where unknown, unaccountable EU Commission members make 65% of national laws [Euro Parliament does not make the Laws]; and where the gross violations of trade and commerce are dictated from; and it is a wonder that the UK did not separate sooner than 2016. Not one single 'Remainer' in the UK can identify their MEP, nor how the EU works, its budget, or what CAP is. Voting to remain in a socialist tyranny, in a system you can't describe, nor even bother to understand, and which is being eviscerated by cultural Marxist and Islam, is simply an expression of ignorance, not 'internationalism'.
