Jacob Rees-Mogg and some more shady characters who really were pushing that sort of free market libertarian view.

They want us to go on WTO terms completely unheard of.

What people forget about this Brexit referendum is it wasn't the first one.

The UK joined the EEC with Ireland in 1973.

And what was the first thing they did?

They had a referendum in 1975 to leave it.

And this was a constant theme.

The party that was initially anti-European was the Labour Party.

And over years, that became the cause of the Conservatives.

And they were constantly being outflanked by UKIP, which is reform now as reform.

And the whole time was, we don't like having to do this, but Europe is making us do it.

And how many times have we heard that here?

How many times have we heard Irish politicians, oh well, Brussels is coming over and they're forcing us.

Even last week when we were talking about the EU migration pact, oh this is an assault on the Irish people, we should be having a referendum.

Hold on, we had a parliament, we had a Dáil elected in the last term who said they'd enact this.

We passed the legislation and this is coming in.

So constantly saying that shadowy force is over and Brussels are forcing to it.

The last two secretaries general have come from Dublin and Wexford.

you know, constantly hammering the EU.

It's easy politics, but it's lazy politics.
