How would you define better educated? If they agree with you? That's normally what EU federalists mean when they say people don't understand the issues. I think people do understand a very important issue - we should govern our own country by taking back powers from Europe.
It doesn't matter if they 'agree' with me or not, and when have I ever used the word 'federalist' about myself?

A lot of people I know don't even know how the EU works, many don't even know how it is constructed.

In fact, forgive me for saying this Andrew but even you have asked me about the powers of different bodies in the EU before, this academic year, and now here you are trying to persuade me that people know enough about the EU to make judgement on it?

Give me a break. It's pathetic.
