Nobody is against the EU except far-right political partys and their supporters. edit: so far left, too, sorry!

That's not entirely true though. There are a lot of leftists who oppose the EU because they believe it is to neoliberal, prioritizing the protecting of businesses rather than the interests of the people. At least that's the case here in Sweden, and I'd be surprised if we were unique in this aspect.

Over here in the Netherlands, that is not true. The SP (Socialist Party) is on the left end of the political spectrum and is pretty anti EU.

Political fringes of all colors are against EU by necessity. Their ideas and principles can't blossom otherwise.

In British politics the need to leave the EU ASAP unites both left and right.

I personally want out because of the Double Irish and the Dutch Sandwich. "Racist!" is the only argument the self-serving pro-EU movement have left, and no-one pays any attention to that word anymore.

The future of the UK lies where it always has, with the Commonwealth.
