> You can simply listen to what people from those countries who do embrace the liberal values associated with the EU project have said about their home countries.

Would you throw them under the bus just to keep the populists out of the Union?

Also now that apparently Sweden is going to have a populist right-wing government, should they leave the EU?

To be clear: I'm asking these questions to highlight the ridiculousness of looking at a whole country through the lens of their (temporary) government.
