I am a Greek citizen who has lived in the UK since 1985. On Brexit day I want to say: I have no fondness for the EU – it destroyed my country. I'm not going to paint my face blue and gold. But I loathe much more the little England nationalism that mobilizes the Brexit narrative.

I have no fantasies of holidays in France nor harbour the mirage of Lexit. Not after the 2015 memorandum that destroyed the promise of the left in greece and not after the December 2019 UK elections.

I know that Brexit will enable the removal of workers’ rights. But I also know that in Greece people saw their workers' rights removed a long time ago while in the EU

I know that UK universities will likely be even more starved of funds, their independence destroyed, but I also know that the EU Bologna agreement is the architecture of marketized HE

That the austerity that will become more deadly post Brexit is the same austerity that is entrenched in the EU and piloted in the South destroying in Greece our glimmer of a welfare state

That the hostile environment started in my country a long time ago: it ensured that immigrants had to evidence their legitimacy 24/7 and bring wads of papers to government offices every month while witnessing their existence cancelled

That the EU has enabled at least one third of Greek territory to be open to fracking because anything goes in the South so that it can also go – later – in the North

Another Europe is indeed possible, but it is not the Europe of Varoufakis and his ilk

It is a Europe of the refugees, of the people on 0 hrs contracts, the dispossessed, the homeless, the un-citizens. Of the children & the grandchildren of the dead & the exterminated, of those who live the hostile environment in their bones, of those who will haunt your dreams.

of the people drowned in the beautiful beaches of the Mediterranean where Greek children play and where northerners take their holidays

This is the Europe of the present, the Europe to come, the Europe we must find a place to live with
