Re: Why not keep it all in your own hands?
Hi
My view, for what it is worth.
WW2 is long gone, Germany is not an enemy, neither is Italy or Japan.
The UK did not win WW2 on it's own, Russia destroyed the bulk of the German Army in Europe.
De Gaulle is long gone.
The EU did not force us to sell off our utilities, steel making or anything else.
We did that all on our own.
The EU did not force us to stop building Power Stations and import expensive electricity from France.
We were one of the biggest contributors to the EU, we did not use that position to our benefit, others did.
The EU did not force us to send Child Benefits payments to children not living in the UK, that was us again.
The EU did not prevent us registering EU migrants and doing Criminal History checks.
The EU did not prevent us having a delay from Eastern European Migrants here when they joined.
Other EU Countries did.
Free Movement?
We have more Non EU Immigrants coming here than we have EU Immigrants.
The EU did not make us do that, we did it all on our own.
We have been seriously let down by our Politicians for decades.
I have no wish at all to remain in the EU in it's current state.
Our Politicians have botched Brexit, they did not prepare and it is the UK who is going begging for a 2 year Transition, for which we are going to get badly stung.
There will be nowhere to hide for our Politicians when we leave
Hopefully we will be able to get of our Political Elite and put into power those who are more concerned with people's lives than their own advancement.
