by The Guardian’s Larry Elliott on why we need a clean break from BrusselsLarry Elliott, the economics editor at the Guardian, is more leftist than I thought, as he takes an old fashioned view on the EU rather like in the Tony Benn tradition. That's like me, although I was very pro E.U. up until a few years ago, where I even wanted the Euro not knowing what a disaster that would be.I saw Europe as the bastian of social democracy, but sadly, I came to realise it had become Thatcherite- neoliberal too, a conspiracy against the public.
