I think you are probably right. Like I said since the early 90s the tabloids have been drip feeding us how evil the eu is.

"get over it Thew good news has saved £72 billion by not contributing to the eu coronavirus fund according to german mep gunner beck. I wonder how long before the German electorate start asking why they are footing the majority of the bill.... and Ireland - 1% of the EU population have ended up being the fifth-largest net contributor to the covid bailout... That's alright. The Irish only started paying in at all last year - probably because the U.K was leaving and it left the E.U. a bit short.

I am afraid that is the mindset of the Brexit voter. The EU is far from perfect but they have been brainwashed into believing it is the evil empire and can’t be content with the UK leaving , they will only be truly happy if the EU fails.

A successful European economy is bound to draw us along too as a fellow geographic European nation - dependant of course on whatever trade deal is eventually hammered out. A strong Europe (I have always hoped) will serve as a bulwark against undue American pressures (De Gaulle, remember, always rightly saw the U.K. as a 'foot in the door' for the U.S.and did NOT want us 'in'in the first place) and, given enlightened leadership, hopefully the E.U. will build bridges (independent of U.S. wishes) with that other (now ostracised) great European power, Russia - where there is a great deal of trade to be done indeed. Worth noting again though, When the U.K. electorate voted during the 70s referendum, the eventual extent of European integration was NOT made plain to us the Great Unwashed. It simply was not. They/we were led to believe it was to be solely a trade agreement. Fast forward to a proposed European Army (in addition to continued membership of NATO), a common currency etc. etc., and here we are again in the U.K. contemplating a trade only relationship which will no doubt materialise eventually.
