this was sent to me by an angry friend.
That is part of the issue too many mis truths being told"
NO SHIT SHERLOCK....... WTF! DO YOUR OWN RESEARCH!!!!!!!
.....and then tell your left wing, tripe peddling, do good mates to wake up and smell the coffee.
These 'friends' sound like they are not capable of abstract thought never mind doing simple research, rather than taking on board all the scaremongering, BS, FUD and propaganda by the stay camp - who essentially are being paid or funded by the EU in one form another.
You also mentioned 10 years to sort this out. Seriously, what drugs have you been taking? This will be done and dusted within 2, tops. The people of Europe need us to exit as a wake up call to tear down the self serving bureaucratic mess that the EU is right now and hopefully re-build something that is useful and meaningful to all European citizens. My view - the EU should be a simple but comprehensive set of trading agreements NOT a federal state. The federal state aspect is a political experiment executed by political elites that needs to be STOPPED dead in its tracks. This is the one and only opportunity to do that.
As I have also said before...... What European companies do you expect to stop selling their products here in the UK? My reckoning - NONE! Why? Simple, the UK is too lucrative a market to ignore or mess around with - period. If 'they' want to punish us - I'm fine with that. Lets see how European (German, French, Swedish) car manufacturers respond to 200% import duty when their respective governments give the UK trading agreements the runaround. Trading maybe 'rocky' for a short period, but we need trade negotiators to have balls and a backbone, in pretty short order trading will be good. If that is not the case, there are a lot of European companies that will take a massive hit to their bottom lines. What do you think they will do....? Lobby their respective Governments to get their shit together regarding trade with the UK sorted amicably PDQ.
Look around at other 'European' news and the level of dis-satisfaction with the EU...... It is not just us that are really pissed off with what EU membership demands and offers, its literally the population of every 'wealthy' country in the EU. Note, not the good for nothing elitist politicians, but the actual PEOPLE of these countries....... What does that tell you?
It should tell you that the EU is terribly broken and it is time for significant change - the only way to get that is to vote out.
