LETTER: True friends beyond Europe
Now we have France and Germany saying ‘please don’t go’ but not, as true friends might, offering more concessions and support in order to tempt us into remaining, but threats and more threats. Since when do ‘friends’ threaten each other? If nothing else it shows the true level of ‘friendship and co-operation’ from the EU, and how little ‘influence’ the UK has with Brussels when ‘push’ comes to ‘shove’!
Indeed I almost, but not quite, feel sorry for our Prime Minister over this.

That is the true choice in a few weeks time.
