6. I'm not sure you'll find many of us who live in the UK sharing that belief.

Brexit was a long time a-brewing.

I'm talking insistent, constant picking away at the EU and its shortcomings with often highly misleading propaganda across the vast majority of the media pretty much since the UK joined, and certainly since before Putin came on the scene. (At the moment, if that was Putin's wish, it seems to have backfired to an extent, as many in other EU countries are looking at the chaos that's engulfing us and deciding that, no, that doesn't look like a good idea.)

The UK's quite capable of making catastrophic mistakes without any outside help.
