Robin Niblett says that nation states are a problem and peddles the supposed benefits of regional sub-groups such as the EU.He bemoans that '"we might not be able to create one sort of World Government". I bet he'd like to, the traitor. He also says that the flow of information limits the room of governments to manoeuvre. God forbid that governments ever do what the populations want, people like him want to keep the tax slaves in the dark so they can continually leech off them
