A fair assessment. I would add that the goals are different. The EU

Another good reason not to leave the EU.

Sure. Anyone that bullies us should be given in to. No doubt about it.

The UK while a member of the EU demanded change for their benefit. The EU
mostly said no.

The UK said they would hold a referendum on leaving if they didn't get
what they wanted. The EU shrugged its shoulders.

The UK has that referendum and is leaving the EU.

Sorry to see you go, says the EU.

The UK want to keep many of the benefits of being an EU member (after
leaving) with none of the 'costs'

The EU thinks this not on.

And you call the EU a bully?
