Once China ramps up, and becomes everyone's trade master within the next 20 years (including the United States') we'll all wish we could go back in time and vote YES on things like the EU Const.
Pride is a bitch.

Has nothing todo with pride.
The EU is great as it is now, this didn't change a lot. HOWEVER, some things that would have been changed what I did not like. Examples:
Our zoo's and some entertainment parcs do get money from our government. In the new situation, The London ZOO, could complain abou this fact, and then the DUtch government has to stop this. Because it was be unfair competition. Same for houses that are for rent owned by the government etc.
