I like the idea of being de-centralist, which is why I oppose the EU and even more so since I have learned a few things about it. You see the way forward is to divide power up, I see that as an illusion and that this is more of a time to unite. We just don't have anyone who really represents us at the central core of the UK, if they did listen then the problems wouldn't be nearly as bad.
I think the problems are ultimately structural, you cannot hope for such a small elite of people, so far away from the people to really represent them.
