There's a lot of countries in the world that aren't in a political federation, yet I have not heard news of any world wars?

No evidence that we would be better off in terms of money, I think you'd agree.
Less freedom of movement, risk of losing some worker's rights, (we could quite feasibly put such things in that category) with Brexit.
With less money for the NHS, and a poorer nation, I fail to see how life span could improve.
If you need Brexit for your self esteem, it sounds like you have other issues. There is a theory that many of those that voted Brexit had Imperialist yearnings, or to put it another way - resented being part of the EU, as they yearned for when GB was an empire. Hardly a laudable approach to the future of your country.

Pretty sure we have EU elections. In fact, I have voted in them before, so... what was your point again? Meanwhile, there is talk of reform, which is hardly surprising, as it is a democratic system.
The UK's economy is a major factor in much of the above, not least in people's health.
Ukraine, for example.
Georgia.
Have a neighbour that does not favour the "co-operative community of nations" model that has served most of Western Europe so well for a lifetime.
I know you are aware that the men who founded the European movement had just lived through the most terrible war the world has ever seen. The older ones had also lived through the second most terrible war the world has ever seen. Nothing was more important to them than preventing a recurrence.

It can take a lot more responsibility for Germany, France, Italy, Austria not having had another war with each other for a lifetime.

Peace is like money, or sex, or air.
It doesn't come to the forefront of your mind until you haven't got it.
Sadly Mr Putin has retained the mindset of the 1930's.

To be fair, air must permanently occupy the space at the front of transam's mind. Something must occupy the space after he is bored of entertaining himself by browsing BestGore.com!
Although I suppose he could be vacuous.

doubt that
The formation of nato & the cold war years had more to do with that then the EU IMHO
A fear of the soviet Union?
The west has under estimated putin & played him for a fool
What would the US reaction be if Canada became allied to Russia & then had Russian troops stationed on there border ??
Same as that looney president JFK who nearly started WW3 by stationing Pershing nuclear missiles on the Russian border
hence the Cuban missile crisis in the 60's

Well, that isn't relevant to the UK resigning from the EU.
But I think probably if Canada was a country that had been invaded by US forces, suffered a US-caused famine with millions of deaths, was given a puppet government, and was occupied for fifty years, Canada might jump at any opportunity to get away, when the US collapsed. They might even make the mistake of keeping US-sympathising generals and ministers, and handing over their weapons to the US for "safe-keeping." Or they might have more sense.
Well we will not be in the talked about for years EU controlled army/defence force
The EU thought they could do what ever they like in Eastern Europe Hmmmm they had to think again
afai am concerned the russians can do what they like in the Ukraine ,Georgia & all them other X soviet states
They should never have been allowed to join the EU in the first place

I see that the EU paper shufflers are getting worried
....... , brexit , A US president & administration who have very little interest in the EU
elections in Holland, Germany & france
Nothing to do with race or religion, so not comparable to Trumps suspension of entry from 7 countries.

No thanks. Nothing co-operative about the cabal trying to run the eu.

Your comment is self-contradictory.
A cabal is secret, by its definition. Because you are aware of it, it cannot be secret. Unless you are in the cabal.
We are onto conspiracies again:

What a pile of ill informed nonsense.
1) There isn't one
2) I am disappointed by your approval of invasion and occupation of small countries by more powerful ones
3) They aren't in the EU.
Do you make this nonsense up yourself, or do you harvest it from some nutter website?
