I find it impressive that the UK people trust their government so much even to the point where they are happy to leave the EU to give it more power. That seems questionable.
- mobiuscog 10y agoThat's more about mistrust of the EU 'government'.
- the_mitsuhiko 10y agoI trust my own government less than the EU. Ibfind it surprising it's different in the UK.
- topspin 10y agoIt's not about 'trust' at all. The typical brexit supporter doesn't 'trust' any of these people any farther than they can throw some ministry building. The brexit supporters are convinced they'll have more influence over a sovereign UK government that answers to UK votes, whereas they have learned through long experience that they have next to no influence over Brussels, by design. This straw man the_mitsuhiko setup with brexit dunderheads that "trust their [UK] government so much" is a fiction that exists inside his/her head; a sad self-delusion people indulge to demean things they don't like.
