Dodged the question again.
Curious however to know why you think it is flawed, especially when the actual concept of the EU was actually a Churchill/Marshall idea. In fact Churchill at one point was even suggesting the UK and France join together as a single country (Franco-British Union), however I am sure you will regard this an inconvenient truth.

That is quite a rarity sometimes on this forum.

It's still reality, even if it's reality from a few years ago. Not understanding the forces and philosophy that brought the EU into reality from the get-go is a mistake, because you won't have a clue what its ultimate destination aim is.

remember it's the brexit thread so it could take two years to get an answer unless you want to leave without one

What it's become (a fixation with ever closer union, single currency, single economic policy etc and all with 28 very different member states) in my lifetime is a flawed concept but maybe before jumping to conclusions about what I may/may not consider to be inconvenient truths, you might want to have a look at the threads listed below. My numerous posts therein along with many others will give you an insight into what I (and many others here think) and why. When you've done that I'll be happy to clarify any questions you think I've dodged.

IIRC Churchill did more than suggest union he actually offered it, however I don't see how it's an inconvenient truth as he didn't do it out of love for France or Europe but to keep them in WWII
