The EU must reform to deserve our support

Dick Taverne urges a cross-party alliance to stop Brexit (Letters, 20 June). As one who voted remain, I share his opposition to Brexit. But, having witnessed the appalling manner in which the EU treated Greece, I believe the EU must radically reform if it is to continue to enjoy our unalloyed allegiance. So we must add a caveat to our pro-EU appeal: throw out your bureacratic constitution and replace it with affirmative and non-hierarchical democracy.
