I am interested to hear what other people have to say. On the system we have, imperfect and problematic and all that it is, and with the history we have of a Department which often could be justifiably described as institutionally racist - that is my own view - we should try to improve it, rather than going into an EU-wide pact which undermines some of the basic rights that have been built up over generations. Is that, in some way, the witnesses' position?
