#4 I wonder if the light is dawning on the British that the French are nothing more than the agricultural equivalent of welfare mothers.

If the EU, read "Britain" stopped subsidizing France, the French economy would first shrink by half, and then by 2/3rds.

Eventually the question becomes what, if anything, the British are getting out of EU membership at all? Have they just birthed another HRE?
