One would think that they would get tired of spending their lives evading questions, lying and endlessly chanting the same old clichés but they don’t. They still happily say that the UK benefits from its EU membership because of fantasy trading opportunities, that Britain should be at the heart of Europe but not run by Europe. They say that it makes them sick to their stomachs that prisoners should get the vote, that sex offenders should be taken of the register, that Britain should be prevented from deporting terrorists, that we should have to fly the EU flag whether we want to or not, etc.

Of course it can’t make them as sick as they say, otherwise they would remedy the situation by leaving the EU and its inbuilt subservience to the ECHR thanks to the Lisbon Treaty – the same Lisbon Treaty, formerly the EU Constitution, on which they (like the Labour Party) promised a public referendum.
