    Ideas like this are exactly why the UK left though. Noone wants to be forced into something the don’t want to do, particularly wars.

      Obviously, but we can’t have a unified army or defence force without it. Countries close to a conflict will want to use the army to defend their people, while those further away will try to prevent their people from being involved.

      Neither is wrong, because we are not a federation and our individual countries are still more important than the union as a whole.
