It goes the other way too. On the face of it the idea that the EU is not a wholly worthy establishment, or that Britain's membership of it is not in the best interests of the nation is not in itself contentious. It was once the mainstream view of the Labour party after all. Yet successive politicians have for decades been pushing the idea that it is an extremist view, and that anyone who holds that view is racist, right-wing, deluded at best, dangerous at worst. It's no surprise really that after 40 years of such assertions, that it is mostly the racist nutters that are anti-EU.
