Daniel talked with Vulture about it earlier this week.
Brexit is really scary. I obviously want us to stay. There are economic reasons — but the main reason is that in this era, divided we fall. C'mon guys, let's stick together. The idea of nationhood is one that I can kind of take or leave. I am very proud of being English and I'm very proud of everything England is giving the world that I am associated with. But it's not an actual — what does [Kurt] Vonnegut call them in Cat's Cradle? He calls them 'granfalloons,' where there's a name for a fake bond. Because we're all British, we're all part of the same country. But people in France aren't that fucking different.

Per una volta, caro Dan, non siamo d'accordo.... lui è giovane, e come tutti i giovani, giustamente parla dal punto di vista degli ideali: e per quelli, anch'io vorrei l'europa unita, e blablabla. Ma ormai ci siamo resi conto che questa europa non è l'europa sognata dai fondatori, un'ideale comunità di uguali, ecc.: questa è un europa di banchieri, finanzieri, burocrati, dove c'è "chi è più uguale degli altri", e chi comanda e conta di più, e tiene tutti in pugno. E così non è giusto!! E' meglio rovesciare il tavolo, e casomai rifare tutto daccapo, ma su ben altre basi!
