Actually, I’m not offering it as a strategy to ensure we stay out. There’s no need, because we are staying out for the foreseeable future. With that being the case there’s space to speculate freely. I think we have to be either fully in or fully out. I’d have thought you would acknowledge that the UK’s semi-detached status within the EU helped create the space in which Euroscepticism could dwell and grow for many years prior to the Brexit referendum being called and, especially with regards the currency, made it even possible for us to leave.
