William Hague warns EU of British disillusion

Public disillusionment with the EU in Britain is the deepest it has ever been and may make the whole institution democratically unsustainable in the UK, William Hague will warn on Tuesday .

In a speech in Berlin that starts to flesh out the nature of Britain‘s demands for a changed Europe, the foreign secretary will warn that, in the UK, „people feel that in too many ways the EU is something that is done to them, not something over which they have a say“.
