Juddian:
Be interesting to see who gets to pay for everything when us old loony right/left/indifferent finally clock off.So far socialism, of which the EU is a prime example of all that is wrong with the cult (hasn’t resulted in the violent deaths of as many innocents as previous regimes of the USSR China and Germany and other socialist utopias, but give it time) that exists to attain power by spending money other people have earned.
We’ll see how kindly the current noisy generations desperate to hand over their country take to having their salaries and wealth taken in ever greater measures via taxation of one form or another when they’ve had a lifetime of 60 hour weeks of hard graft under their belts, when they find they have no say no vote and no influence over the appointments of decision makers apparatchiks and rulers, and when they suddenly find if they object to what is being done to them (or their country when the penny finally drops that it’s morphed into Mogadishu) that they are up before an unaccountable foreign court on hate speech crime charges.
Very succinctly put Juddian. Thank you for bringing the argument back to the only issue which matters. Forget trading arrangements, forget the economy, forget the wishes of big business, forget all of these and everything else except the one vital issue:
Who is running the country? the British people via their parliament or another external organisation telling that parliament what to do and charging its people for the privilege?
All other issues pale into insignificance if the country and its people do not have control over its policy and legal decisions.
