I certainly did not think you were casting aspersions about my honesty, just that pointing out that I had been unclear in what I said.
The Common Market was sold to the population purely as a trading organisation, but over time it morphed into something more political, something that we were not given a choice on...well, until now that is.

No problems .
Many get confused with the referendums and the details .
Like you I voted to leave the European Community in 1975 and again in last year's referendum .
I still have concerns about how it is all going to work out .
We can't avoid globalisation , and whatever the outcome I can't see how the UK will be a truly independent , self-governing country in my lifetime .
