and it's the first step back, which I love (and miss),

BUT

there has been 0, zero, niente, nada, rien proper discussion in the EU on WHY UK left!

All UK reasons have been blamed as stupid (which is understandable due to mouth like N. Fartage), while many are not, so need to be discussed, faced, dig! and please don't talk again about immigration: this is already discussed even too much: stop talking about this could be the very first step to do what I mean. EU in Brussel: you do not want to do it? and you'll be kicked in the butt: face reality, face real problems we have withing EU which UK listed clearly: maybe they will really be marked as irrelevant but we need to talk about it.

My very personal opinion is bureaucracy, fat bureaucracy, damned bureaucracy, expensive bureaucracy: believing you can have a better world by regulations IS stupid, and so on... the whole idea of an elite who is elite 'cause is using it's brain, while out there other need to be forced 'cause they are no (so should just obey and not use their brain) is stupid.

E.g. In the UK there is no ID card, you can live your whole life with no ID of any sort: yes, you need an ID (the passport) to go outside indeed: your address is stated by your electricity bill, or bank account address, and that is more that enough ... and it works! This while in other EU countries (much less civilized I would add), police can force you to a police station if you do not have the national ID in your pocket... and, beside this, this ID even expire (!)

Ask AI for: "countries in EU where you can be arrested if you do not have the national ID with you"

Did the 'sacrifice' of many UK citizen who left meant something? did EU learn something from it different than: 'you'll see what you've lost, you'r gonna cry!'

grrrr

and politicians love to subsidise because students will be forever grateful because they got to travel and party for free

absurd EU!

Lol. Informed citizens with a broadened horizon would only pose a challenge to a small-party sized class of people. Conservatives love to create smokescreens and false narratives, but factually the meaning Conservative stems from the wish to conserve the power of the 0.0001%. That's why they never can come up with anything like a real agenda for you know, the res publica. Instead they have to resort to bullshit and falsehoods in order to trick people to vote on all kinds of interesting vibes and hurt feelings, but that have nothing to do with the damn fucking job of governing.
