AFTER reading the speech made by Mr Juncker to the European Parliament, I think that our country has had a lucky escape.

If we had voted last year to stay in the EU, within a few years we would have ended up in a superstate and forced to adopt the Euro.

As well as that we would have no say in the running of our own country. I do not know anybody who would want that.

London creates a lot of wealth for this country - would it then be transferred to Frankfurt or Paris?
