No subject has more bearing on the future economic prosperity of Britain, no subject has been the cause of so many arguments across the land, in Parliament and pub, no subject has been the touch-fire of so many late-night monologues by irate taxi-drivers than Europe, and, more specifically, Britain's place in it. This is ironic really, because no subject has been so poorly explained, and no subject has been so meagrely addressed by politicians.
