Ian ..... left unsaid so far on this forum has been any expression of
potential future events should the UK have voted to have remained in the
EU. For instance, is a not a long shot at all to surmise that within the
next ten years the following would have occurred or be in active process
of completion:
1 Abandonment of the Pound and adoption of the Euro with little say by
the UK
2 Banking union
3 Integration of the UK taxation system into an EU wide tax code
4 Complete subservience of the UK judicial system to the EU Court of Justice
5 Oversight of the UK budget preparation process and submission to
Parliament along with EU rights to reject or amend same without any
right of appeal
6 Ultimate control of the NHS and other welfare facilities by the EU
7 Loss of control of the UK's armed forces in favour of the EU
8. Complete oversight of UK foreign policy by the EU with mandatory
directives from the EU to alter course where it saw fit.
9 Change over from driving on the left to the right
10. Abandonment of gasolene and diesel powered vehicles a la Norway in
favour of electric and pedal powered vehicles.
Sounds funny .......... I really do not think so. Perhaps there was a
lot of other good reasons to vote to get off the bus other than wanting
to take control of the borders.

I started writing before but abstained from sending but I agree in
essence with ken, the people who voted to leave are those worst off,
they feel neglected by the powers that be and felt they had nothing
more to lose, It is unfortunately human nature that power corrupts and
while those nearest gain it is those most distant from the power source
that suffer, While I am not personally against the EU, I think this
vote was not just against immigration - I think in part it was as N
Farage suggested, the little people saying they have had enough of
multinationals and financial institutions taking the mickey. I like to
think I am neutral and not led by business funded media and I was
actually surprised at the media bias against Farage in particular and
whilst I do not agree with all of his policies or any other political
parties for that matter he also spoke some sense at times but what
surprised me was how he was so often misaligned such as the example here
- he clearly stated he was ostracised from the leave campaign and it was
what Johnson had as a campaign.

I watched the videos and saw him make no such promise, (please point it
out to me if its there) Johnson however is another matter
Multinational companies however are extremely bad for local economics
and people in general, we are about to face one of the most testing
times in Human Existence and when we look back BREXIT I fear will be
just a burp)
I was not allowed to vote (bet they regret removing expats eligibilty to
vote now ) so can calmly say as an onlooker none of this was my doing.
Here though is a video to make us all healthier which you should watch -
I am serious please watch it
