I am an 'Oldie', and I have been keenly interested in politics since I was a pre-teen, am not tied to any political party, have lived through Heath's self confessed treachery in conning us into the 'Common Market', through Thatcher's later confession that she had been 'duped' over the EU, through John Major's treasonous skullduggery in signing the Maastricht Treaty, through Blair and Brown's self-serving endorsement of an EU which they KNEW was highly damaging to this country, and now I have seen David Cameron join that list of treasonous British leaders in LYING to this country and duping it by scaremongering into voting 'Remain'.
Incidentally, I am not so vehemently against the EU through any personal reason - I have had my own businesses and Limited Companies since my mid twenties and own a multi million pound portfolio of properties including one in Torrevieja, Spain, and though not 'Cash Rich', I am not starved of cash.
I CARE for the same reason that the much maligned Nigel Farage cares - the MOST honest politician in the UK - For the sake of the UK and the young and the generations STILL TO COME.
Farage puts country above himself so much, that he wants to vote himself out of a £182,826 income as an MEP on the EU 'Gravy Train' - weigh that against the lying politicians with vested interests in perpetuating the corrupt EU.
I have decades of PERSONAL Experience as a businessman and landlord who has both employed and let properties to hundreds of immigrants over the years, so I have also decades of experience of immigrants and the ADVERSE effects of open door Immigration on communities throughout the North of England, through moving in immigrant circles.
I have read hundreds of articles about the EU - both pro and anti, and watched dozens of documentaries on that subject and closely related matters, including;
UK Border Force, Panorama, 24 Hours In Police Custody, Question Time, Council House Crackdown, Crimewatch, Daily Politics etc etc, in addition to EVERY single purpose made program on the EU and EU Referendum.
I learnt a long, long time ago, that Information is Power and Knowledge is Power, and I am not this passionate against my country's insane continued membership of that failed and corrupt, corporation serving, Federalist shambles, through being Xenophobic, Racist, A 'Little Englander', or through being a dithering idiot who has no knowledge of what I am being asked to vote on.
All the bleating about the UK not being capable of going it alone without the EU, is idiotic and belittles the skills, courage, determination and spirit of the British people - domiciled immigrant British included - and is utterly wrong.
It is this 'Britishness' - which some on here may decry and denigrate - which has seen this country still REMAIN a world power long after it's days of 'Empire' are gone.
Name me one other former EMPIRE which can boast of the same;
The Greeks? The Italians (Romans)? The Ottoman (Turkish)? The Persian (Iran)?
No, throughout history - and given the inevitable cyclic 'peaking and troughing' in our fortunes - GREAT BRITAIN remains just that; GREAT, and it is the calibre of the PEOPLE of a country which ultimately decides whether a country is 'Great' or not.
What is more - and unlike most of the other former 'Empires' - Britain did not turn its back on the countries we once plundered or treat badly during the days of Empire, we GAVE BACK, and have NEVER stopped giving back -- though nothing can ever eradicate the shameful parts of our long history, we ARE trying and have always tried, to make amends.
I have posted comprehensive FACT and STATISTIC based posts on here detailing just WHY this country cannot afford to remain in the UK, including:
1 42 years of negative balance of trade deficits (currently worsened to over £42 billion up to March of this year).
2. The £259 Billion 'Black Hole' in the EU's finances due to FRAUD; a 'Black Hole' which the arrogant bastards in Brussels demanded £34 Billion from the UK to help refill, to which Cameron said "Over my dead body" only to deceitfully secretly PAY it.
3. The total deceit of the UK Government over the REAL IMMIGRATION FIGURES. While the headlines screamed; 'Net Migration Rises To 330,00 The Second Highest On Record' - the National Insurance Numbers handed out to immigrant applicants for the same period was 630,000.
The subsequent frantic scramble by the Government to try to explain away this discrepancy is so convoluted and complicated and NONSENSICAL that it beggars belief. What the Government finally did admit is that 'It HAS NO WAY OF KNOWING HOW MANY IMMIGRANTS ARE ENTERIN G THE UK'
4. The B.S. claim that 44% of our exports are to the EU. I explained about 'The Rotterdam Effect' - how ALL cargo ships from the UK which temporarily docked at Rotterdam or Antwerp had their cargoe's ASCRIBED AS GOING TO THE EU EVEN IF THEY WERE NOT!
As in the NINO discrepancy above, the British Government tried to downplay this unscrupulous practice with the most convoluted, complex cover-up possible, and ended up - once again - admitting that 'There were no figures available for actual exports to the EU'.
I could go on and on but it will make no difference.
The HMS GREAT BRITAIN is a 19th century wooden ship far out at sea, and successive British Governments have been steering her towards the rocks whilst selling of the bitumen caulk which keeps her planked hull watertight, but that does not worry them, because THEY own the LIFEBOATS and ALL THE NEAREST ISLANDS.
It is the 'Common Working Classes' who are 'below decks' who will drown, but when that day comes and this country is a bankrupt disaster zone - if the referendum result is 'Remain' - as I suspect - then at least I can hold my head up and know that I tried.
How ironic that would be should that be whilst I am in my little villa in Los Balcones, Spain.
