Mr Wilding is credited as the man responsible for coining the term Brexit. He was appointed by former Prime Minister David Cameron as Media and Policy Director of the Conservative Party in the EU. He revealed the top thing he would change about the EU to give it a “much more coherent direction”. He said: “The EU is a bit like Birmingham in the 19th century. “Birmingham had about 100 gas companies and things like that. “It had an alphabet soup of competing organisations, and then Joseph Chamberlain came along and put them all under one roof and unified it.”  Mr Wilding continued: “The European Union has got the European Union, the European Economic Area, the Council of Europe, the European Security and Defence Counsel, a lot of organisations. “You probably didn’t know that MPs can sit in the NATO General Assembly, they sit in the Counsel of Europe, they sit in the European Security and Defence Council. “My view was Britain could say let’s bring all of these under one roof. “Let’s have a European Security Council, and the big five countries sit on that Security Council.”  The EU law expert added: “Effectively it’s a directorate which guides the European Union, certainly, but also the other organisations I mentioned. “I think there needs to be much more coherent direction of the whole continent, not just in economic matters, but defence, intelligence etc. “So I propose something like a European Security Council, which can oversee the alphabet soup of organisations which are currently in charge of various aspects of policy which is moderately unified throughout the continent.”  Trending  The UK is due to leave the EU by January 31. The Brexit transition period is due to come to an end on December 31, 2020. The EU and UK will use the transition period to try to agree future trading relationship. Critics believe there is no way a deal can be done in such a short space of time. Chancellor of the Duchy of Lancaster Michael Gove said the deal will be agreed and the transition will not be extended.
