Here we go again, yet another Brexit fantasist, Jeremy Hunt, likens the EU to the USSR, where countries could not leave.
Countries could not leave the USSR without the threat of invasion; the UK is at liberty to leave the EU at any time, but must accept the financial consequences.
It's like having a Tesco Club Card that gives you discounts on products in return for shopping there, but then deciding to return the card, demanding those same discounts and asking to be taken seriously.
Are these people sane? Brexiteers' sense of victimhood over a self-inflicted injury is simply mind boggling and how they think no-one can see through this is astounding. You can almost hear them shouting; "Don't you know who I am?" at the checkout. When you're the epicentre of an Empire of some 458 million people and a manufacturing powerhouse, that may carry some weight; when you are a country of 65 million with little remaining in the way of manufacturing, it doesn't.
A cynic might think they're doing this on purpose prior to another referendum and hoping the more intelligent voter responds accordingly. Never, however, underestimate the stupidity of the electorate...
