If, for the sake of argument, one accepts the claim that the UK is a

governing the UK are passed in Belgium the UK cannot be a country.

Just as well they aren't, eh?

EU directives are approved and passed into UK law by Westminster. Yes, UK
law. England, Wales, NI _and_ Scotland.

Nice try. However, I already knew the details. It is not politically
correct to call laws made by the EU laws, it upsets the little
Englanders (and there are the equivalent of little Englanders in
most parts of the EU). So the laws are called Directives and there
is a pretence that they are optional.

Must try better. 1/10.
