for the good of European society.
For what some politicians tell us is the good of European society (whatever that actually is), i.e. good in that they get to be in charge of it. From what I've seen of "European society" these past 25 years those politicians have done more harm than good, we certainly don't seem to be moving towards a big happy family all financially secure and in agreement over what's best, quite the opposite. The more people try and centralize control under themselves, the more resistance there will be.
We need a Europe of good neighbours, co-operating together. for what we agree is the common good. Not a dysfunctional family with Daddy telling us what's good for us.
