    Yes, but I don't want to rush it.

    I'd rather have a common market than no common market, I'd rather have a strong union in a 100years than one forced upon the people now.

    I think, if a federal union is ever going to happen, the UK should probably get a special statute.

    Yes, definitely.

    I would not mind at all if the UK was one state among the greater being - the EU.
    GARCIN: I "dreamt," you say. It was no dream. When I chose the hardest path, I made my choice deliberately. A man is what he wills himself to be.
    INEZ: Prove it. Prove it was no dream. It's what one does, and nothing else, that shows the stuff one's made of.
    GARCIN: I died too soon. I wasn't allowed time to - to do my deeds.
    INEZ: One always dies too soon - or too late. And yet one's whole life is complete at that moment, with a line drawn neatly under it, ready for the summing up. You are - your life, and nothing else.

    A large European Federation is necessary to save the world from all those small "besserwisser" countries around Europe. Europeans are good, but much better in minority......

    You must feel alone in the UK JAG. I'd wager you've regularly received death threats for expressing such pro-Euro opinions

    If it means adopting Thatcherism, I'd rather exile. There are already enough poor in our European countries, especially in the UK.

    I think English should become the main European language, almost everyone besides the French speaks it already pretty decently anyway.

    It is already. If you want a proof: the Constitution was written in English before any other language. Personally, I would be favorable to English as the official language because both French and German have a horrible grammar and conjugation is a pure nightmare.
