I don't see him as having sour grapes about the EU. I heard him speak last year before the referendum. He was clear. The EU is flawed and needs reform but we must work to reform it not destroy it. That is a more positive attitude than sour grapes.

OK some of the things in the article did sound a little like that, to me. Cos of how he wrote about how he got treated.
I agree the EU needs reform, currently there's too much power in some levels and it's not working as well for some countries. Some aspects of the free market can also lower wages for some, and workers get varying protection, in Poland clothes manufacturers are really underpaid for example.
It's not easy as whenever the EU speaks up about that/not taking immigrants it's the old "you are a dictatorship!!!" again :/
I am hoping the dream of lifting up all the EU countries will return again.

Sour grapes, much?
But he's right there will be sooooooooooo much politics and hurdles, even when you try to be reasonable.
Other EU citizens in other EU countries can *perhaps*help, it's not that protests didn't derail TTIP for example, but the UK has made itself ... unpopular.
