Expecting common sense or anything like it to prevail within Europe is likely to result in a long, frustrating and ultimately pointless wait. Single currency, single state, free movement, open borders, one size fits all etc. etc. etc. It'd all be terrific in cloud cuckoo land...

Those who think there is not a problem with open borders within the EU to the UK should look closely at what has happened in Paris. I honestly feel that the open boarders and the fact that the EU are allowing all and sundry to cross from one side of the EU to the other without checks is criminal.

You can bet that those who agree with open borders would change there tune if it was one of there family killed by a terrorist who WALKED into the EU without any checks and was allowed to travel when and where they like.
