Oh great the foundational work of the rationalist community. Enjoy 650 000 words of Eliezer Yudkowsky' preaching and his self-insert smartly destroying straw-man after straw-man while everybody claps.

If anyone was looking for the exact quote its from The Two Towers, Chapter 2 "The Riders of Rohan".
“’Riders!’ cried Aragorn, springing to his feet. ‘Many riders on swift steeds are coming towards us!’
“’Yes,’ said Legolas, ‘there are one hundred and five. Yellow is their hair, and bright are their spears. Their leader is very tall.’

Joining at this point would require an insane effort on the UKs side. I am pretty sure that an undemocratic institution like the house of lords would not be acceptable under current EU laws and that is not even accounting for the UKs voting system. The UK would also have to join the currency union. The last point alone makes rejoining very unlikely in my opinion. I think the only thing UK citizens can realistically hope for is, at best, something similar to the Norway model.
I am sure it gets really good after 400 000 words more. However, I would much rather spend my time reading something other than the writings of a guy who doesn't hold a degree of any sort, didn't even finish high-school, but claims to be an expert in all the topics he ignorantly speculates about.
