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.

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.

The UK is not going to leave the European Union. Of course not. We are inextricably wound up with Europe. In terms of culture, history and geography, we are a European nation.

Europe existed before Britain joined it.

We want the United Kingdom to remain in the European Union.

Britain must lead in Europe to intensify the fight against global terrorism and make our country safer.

The E.U.'s tax and regulatory policies, climate-change and welfare spending, and free immigration even in wartime are gradually ruining Europe. That's why I believe Brexit is good for British freedom, political autonomy, and the survival of democratic capitalism.

I believe that Europe without Britain at the heart will be less reform-driven, less open, less international Europe.

I personally hope and wish that Britain will stay part and parcel of the European Union.

We believe that from both a German and a Polish perspective, it is desirable for Great Britain to remain in the European Union.
