The real danger to Britain is a foreign policy that is isolationist in Europe and therefore weak in the rest of the world.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Britain must lead in Europe to intensify the fight against global terrorism and make our country safer.
The big risk to British lives in 2013 is in Afghanistan. Our troops, diplomats and aid workers have made a big contribution there. But while there is an end date for Western engagement, 2014, there isn't a proper end game.
Britain is a European power. We cannot change our geography. Our involvement in the politics of European cooperation is one of necessity. Our wealth and our security depend upon it.
I am not a British isolationist. I don't just want a better deal for Britain. I want a better deal for Europe too.
It does not seem to me that the steps which would be needed to make Britain - and others - more comfortable in their relationship in the European Union are inherently so outlandish or unreasonable.
There is a real danger of the United Kingdom breaking up. There is a loss of common identity.
I hate this argument that says little Britain or something outside, or Britain is part of a wider Europe. We can both be within our trading relationships within Europe but we can also be a fantastic global trader.
Britain's destiny lies in Europe.
Brexit is the other face of the refugee crisis - tensions that lead to stasis, external risks that lead to asymmetric shocks.
I worry about the direction of the U.K. and U.K. politics and governance in the event of a Brexit.
