Disagree. Something which we will have to do.

It would be, yes. And it wouldn't disprove my point - which is about the quality of the MPs, not the governments, and applies to all parties, beloved of NSC or otherwise!

I've been following this for 60 years. It has.

I struggle, frankly, to imagine any improvement. Hasn't happened in a generation - actually more like two generations.

Yes, his iconic "How I laid the seeds for the demise of the EU" after-dinner blockbuster speech should go down a bomb all the way from Brussels to Berlin and back again, with knobs on!
