In an interview to EurActiv Bill Cash said, “I believe the entire European project is dysfunctional and undemocratic.

“This is the time for it to have a rain cheque, restructure the whole thing, bring it up to date, have an association of nation states, and create a sense of values.

“I would like to see structural change in our relationship between the UK and EU, but also structural change in the EU itself, which isn’t on offer. Trade, absolutely. Political cooperation, absolutely. But the Euro is a disaster area. Political union has become an end in itself. There needs to be a scaling down of the EU institutions and more power for national governments. At the moment, the EU is leading Europe over a cliff. The UK could lead Europe out of the morass it is now, in and actually save Europe, as we have done over the last 200 years. This is not nostalgia. This is fact.” Please read the full interview here.
