Believe it or not some people do trust the EU to act in the collective interest of the Union - especially in negotiations with a future third country.
Do they think in Paris and Berlin they are scheming to stiff the rest of the membership in negotiations with the UK. To what end?
It’s a preposterous notion fuelled by eurosceptic propaganda that’s been peddled here for years. If we want to sabotage our own interests fine, but to assume the EU are doing the same is quite an astonishing, and unfounded, claim.
