It's worth reiterating that a lot British people have this bizarre sense of cultural and political supremacy, based chiefly on an empire built upon slave trade, subjugation of foreign nations and military conquest.
We are, in 2016, a middling power with aspirations way above our capability. We can't even scale our economy to utilise the immigration into the country properly. The UK is the self indignant, moody cunt of Europe and it wouldn't surprise me if we sacrificed all the good of the EU to sate our ultra nationalist fears of sharing political power and staunching the flow of working immigrants.
