I know that. But just give it a bit more thought.
As to my historical reference point, what I was taught in my history class is nothing like the cohort to which I am referring. Their reference point is the "wonderful" EU, Erasmus, free movement, idealism and so on with little or no concept of modern history - the Nazis, the formation of Israel by UN resolution, Britain's abolition of slavery, the water treatment plants and roads we built in Africa etc.
