The problem is with threads like these is the Remainers are very loud and confident. Anyway who dares offer an opposing opinion are called stupid, gullible, easily led, traitors. I was even called a snowflake by someone which I must admit caused much hilarity.
I've never been a huge fan of the EU. Not since its inception actually.
My main issue, possibly due to my ancestry, is that the EU keeps Africa poor. There is no doubt about this. Plenty for you to read up so no demands for facts. How Germany can actually make more money than countries in Africa for its coffee trade beats me. I'm sure you're all aware, coffee isn't grown in Germany.
I loathe live animal transport and have been engaged in many a protest. Successive governments have told us it is completely impossible for us to stop this due to the EU. If we leave maybe there will be a chance for this to be looked at.
I'm also opposed to the way the richer countries of the EU have exploited the poorer countries by encouraging them to work for very poor wages, doing jobs that the wealthier countries natives don't want to do.
I don't understand why we paid 13 billion and got 4 back in 2018. Also the 4 billion we received had to go on whatever the other 27 countries agreed to. This to me is odd.
We have already lost many jobs to the EU. Many companies have relocated over the years with EU grants. Nobody seemed that concerned about those job losses.
Below is Gorbachev's quote about the EU.
""The most puzzling development in modern politics is the apparent determination of Western European leaders to re-create the Soviet Union in Western ""
The EU will not continue, as is, for years and years to come. Eventually it will collapse. Too many rules and regulations are causing chaos. And a disgruntled populace. According to a recent poll 58% of the European population say it's unlikely to still be around in 20 years. Nothing to do with Brexit.
There have been many 'no deal' preparations put in place. We have absolutely no idea what will happen.
I find it sad though that the Remainers on here are almost yearning for it to cause widespread destruction.
Your negativity won't change anything. You can't stop what is going to happen. Apart from anything else we don't even know if there will be a No Deal Brexit.
And that's my opinion. Call me what you like. It matters not.
And that's my last word on the subject. I think I'll stick with the limericks. Much better for my feeble mind, I'm sure you'll agree!
