EU expert who coined Brexit reveals the ONE thing he would change about the trade bloc – Express

Chairman of think tank British Influence and EU law specialist, Peter Wilding spoke to Express.co.uk about the current state of the Brexit process. Mr Wilding is credited as the man responsible for coining the term Brexit. He was appointed by former Prime MinisterDavid Cameronas Media and Policy Director of the Conservative Party in the EU.

He revealed the top thing he would change about the EU to give it a much more coherent direction.

He said: The EU is a bit like Birmingham in the 19th century.

Birmingham had about 100 gas companies and things like that.

It had an alphabet soup of competing organisations, and then Joseph Chamberlain came along and put them all under one roof and unified it.

Mr Wilding continued: The European Union has got the European Union, the European Economic Area, the Council of Europe, the European Security and Defence Counsel, a lot of organisations.

You probably didnt know that MPs can sit in the NATO General Assembly, they sit in the Counsel of Europe, they sit in the European Security and Defence Council.

My view was Britain could say lets bring all of these under one roof.

Lets have a European Security Council, and the big five countries sit on that Security Council.
