Laurie Britain doesn't have a lead role, because it can't decide where it's interests lie.When we fallout with the US we run to Europe,when we fall out with Europe we run to the US.
We need to decide were are best interests lay,and to do that we need a tough decisive leader like a churchill.
We could be up there ,with the french and germans if we had someone with the political will to take us there.Most modern politicians don't have vision,they have advisers,and think tanks nor do they have the historical insight,an vision that churchill had.
The last time Europe was united and at peace with itself was under the Roman occupation,Churchill was only to aware of this,and a Holocaust and two world wars later he made his statement.
Churchill new that to achieve a lasting peace in Europe the European states had to be Unified,here we have a chance to do it by choice rather than by conquest!!If we had but half a Brain cell we would Grab it an never let it go.
Europe isn't about Butter mountains and wine lakes or Straight Bannas's,Forget that Chit,It's far more important than any of that.
And the US is sick an tired of sorting out European squabbles and who can blame them.Thx by the way

As for multiculturalism,most cities are multicultiural,and seem to work pretty well,would we have London any other way.
