Well, I’d like to know. We hear (or are allowed to hear) so little from him. On this issue, on which JC actually agrees with most of his MP’s apparently, and where both sides of the debate have so little of use to say to us, wouldn’t it be good if the only political leader with a working brain grabbed the opportunity to tell us where he stands?
So far, all I know is that one bunch of Tories wants to stay in and another bunch wants to leave. Given that the standard of their arguments doesn’t reach above “Yah! Up yours! So there!”, there is surely room for an intelligent voice, or one which is capable of rising above a whisper.

Officially, he’s for remaining within the EU. This much we know. It would however be helpful if he would take the lead which is otherwise delegated to Cameron, who is making a fool of himself while, probably, throwing pro-EU votes over the nearest convenient cliff. I see Gordon Brown has reappeared – I do not despise this intervention; but could it be that those surrounding Jezza are prevailing upon him to be silent since they’ve swallowed the myth of his toxicity? Well, how can one know… I have yet to form a high opinion of his entourage.
