But Mr Cockshutt, many mere lawyers on this website, including Mr Fearnley, are happy to meddle with "practical politics" when it comes to identifying and elaborating the difficulties of "Brexit". On that topic they seem to be almost exhaustively well-informed. And as for people "not having a clue" – may one ask the Europhiles what is their precise definition of "ever-closer union" or how (in the frightful event of a Remain victory) they would have proposed to "reform Europe from within"? It’s unfortunate that even now they appear to have no idea of the significance of the decision of 23rd June and can do no more than bandy clichés and cheap sneers, as in your concluding sentence.
