i'll talk to the star, dave patel. >>> first, here's my take. one of the great strengths of the democracy is that bad policies are often reversed. that's a consolation when we look at the flurry of pandering programs being enacted as the populist wave works its way through the western world. when a new government is elected, much of this can be undone. except for brexit, which if it goes through, might prove to be the most profound and lasting legacy of this decade. britain, famous for its prudence, propriety, and punctuality, is suddenly looking like a banana republic as it makes reckless decisions, misrepresents reality, and now wants to change its own self-imposed deadline. >> as written in "the political quarterly," brexit has always been a solution in search of a problem. brexists want to leave the eu but in every other community, ero skeptics see the eu as a free market juggernaut, that's why they don't like it. all those other countries, 27 countries, have it backwards, or britain's conservative party has gone nuts. when i asked ann apple
