Letter to the I: Reply to Brexit Letter

Robert Readman's daily letter,  31st March edition, completely misses the point.  While Mr Readman chiefly blames the EU so-called "Eurocrats " for us leaving I believe the main blame lies with us.   We had 40 years to try and set out an alternative vision for the EU.  Instead of being constructive we used those 40 years just to endlessly grumble, complain and display unyielding pessimism about the course of the organisation.
     Claims like Readman's hide the real reasons why we are pursuing our current course.  The truth is that we are having an identity crisis, the consequences of which will hit our economy like a train crash, not to mention our public services in which EU migrants work.  Those who voted for Brexit because they regret how they voted in the 1970s should frankly get over it.
