You mention Varoufakis a lot but he does think that the EU as a project is worthwhile and he recommends we (the UK) stay within it:

Yanis Varoufakis: Why we must save the EU
Perhaps the UK electorate have been their own worse enemies in this respect, by electing people who do not want to work with other EU nations. Relegating the UK to the fringes of democratic decision making within the EU Parliament. Aided and abetted by a press that concentrates on these outsiders rather than those who are hard at work within the system.

Bit like voting for Sinn Fein and expecting them to change Westminster.
