Nobody honestly believes there's a no risk/damage option but staying on a ship which refuses to change course (despite the mess Europe's in) is guaranteed to work out badly. A serious question - do you really think the EU will see sense and change course? If so, what makes you think that?.

Well I think we should be more assertive in dealing with the EU. We seem to sit it out too much and then complain when things don't go our way magically. Germany and some other nations demanded exemptions for their medical services in TIPP and we didn't but now complain about the threat of it on the NHS?
I don't think we're going to convince each other.
Does help to understand why though.
