Hello Simon

English, but as you may be aware, we are trying to escape from the EU at the moment, and making a bit of a hash of it.

Hello,

 

Sorry for discussing such points.

 

But if so, you can not to ask Suomi about experience (except.....):

-  because if you compared current 'Hundred years'-count of Republic of Finland independence to UK-relation with EU - it's wrong.

With such comparison: Suomi's independence was 'always' OR already more than two hundreds years.

 

But I feel that it's good try to escape from the EU (for UK). Even current president of Iceland support it (and do it right).

 

While comparison between current one-hundred-date of Finland independence indeed more valid for "potential independence maybe for already pretty independent and identity/originality Scotland/Wales (/England) countrylands which covered by United Kingdom"-situation.

 

Thanks!
