Well apart from euro-sceptic, I can't say I agree with the above, however...

At the same time I believe that it is important that we live in an inclusive, classless society. That protects the weak, and punishes those who break the law. I firmly believe that was can build a fair society, but only if we treat everyone the same, be they black, white, asian, disabled or of good health. As far as I an concerned, 'Western Civilisation' is quickly becomming morally bankrupt, and staggering toward decline.
... let's see what I agree with here:

Inclusive, classless society? Check

Protect the weak? Check

Punish those who break the law? Check (Well, sort of, I prefer "attempt to rehabilitate, if possible")

Fair society? Check

Treat everybody the same? Check

So, it seems that, as usual, the goal is the same, it's just the way to get there that is different...
