英国不必急着与欧盟告别

Yet sufficient unto the day is the evil thereof. None of this needs to be decided now. The UK is a bystander at the eurozone drama. Its sensible policy is to keep its options open until the outcome is far clearer.

不过，未来的烦恼还是留给未来考虑吧。上述的这些问题都不是亟待做出决定的当务之急。英国是欧元区危机的旁观者，它的明智之举是对各种选择保持开放态度，直到形势变得更为明朗。

The question is whether domestic politics will allow it to be so sensible. A combination of Tory euroscepticism with Labour opportunism is generating a battle over the EU budget, in which the UK will alienate virtually every other member. Increasingly, the UK is viewed as a member of a club whose rules it rejects and norms it despises. A desire to repatriate powers is a rejection of existing rules. A refusal to compromise is a rejection of club norms. The British understand clubability. Eccentricity is usually acceptable. Obstructionism is not.

问题在于，国内政局是否会允许英国采取这种明智的做法。保守党的欧元怀疑主义和工党的投机主义共同作用，引发了一场关于欧盟预算的争执，而在此问题上英国将疏远几乎所有其他欧盟成员国。外界日益认为英国虽然是欧盟俱乐部的一员，却排斥它的规章，蔑视它的规范。意图收回权力是对现有规章的排斥，拒绝妥协是对俱乐部规范的无视。英国人理解俱乐部的含义，奇怪举动通常是可以接受的，但蓄意阻挠是不行的。
