Quote: Uncle Rico "I'm not worried about the fact that we are using Parliament I agree with you and it.
However, I am concerned at the language coming from the likes of Corbyn, (where was he when the referendum was on), Sturgeon (who won't rest until she has another referendum even though the SNP lost their "once in a lifetime opportunity) and Clegg (who basically said he will oppose everything because he doesn't want to leave).
Too many people spouting on about legitimacy and democracy and the national interest, when in reality the only interest is their own, which is what I was trying to say in my earlier post. I don't particularly trust any of them to deliver I think that there will be a lot of frustration and time wasting hopefully we wont lose site of the bigger picture and opportunities if/when we manage to leave.'"
I think political self interest was the driving force behind the whole referendum question anyway.
People like Farage, much as I dislike his politics, at least have some principles at stake.
Whereas, his "running partners" Johnson and Gove were all about trying to use Brexit to try and climb to the top of the political ladder.
We go back to the campaign, where lies from one side were topped by lies from the other and all of the politicians involved knew that they could never be held to account due to the lack of political unity within each camp.
Personally, I still believe that we will all be financially worse off when we actually leave the EU and I'm now at the point where I dont give a damn what happens.
The hot air about how good a deal Britain will get has been just that, when the reality is that we may end up with something like a 10% levy on all products and services bought and sold within the EU (as will the remaining 26 EU nations) and I think that we will be left as little Englanders, desperate for influence in the outside world.
Nobody has any concrete evidence that we will be better off and we are all left hoping for something to improve.
Mrs May is just full of wind and I dont expect her to be leader of the Conservatives much beyond the end of this year.
Also, the inflationary pressures that stacking up, mainly due to the weaker £ are likely to lead to some very difficult times over the next couple of years and IF the Financial Institutions move from London into Europe the hole in the UK ecconomy will be huge.
On the plus side, with a weak pound (or strong Euro), EU immigration will fall all by itself as Britain becomes a less attractive prospect.
