@danjac As long as the UK has FPTP and the Daily Mail, Europeans should be wary of basing long term strategic decisions on the UK's commitment to Europe, democracy or indeed rationality.

UK may not be as bad as Hungary (which frankly needs to be fenced out of the EU and NATO), but it is definitely systemically vulnerable to Trump-style populism.

After all, the current insane iteration of the Tories can still rely on 25-30% of the vote, and plenty of Leavers still think Brexit was a good idea.
