Now, you, the reader of this, may see me as naive, uninformed or even silly, but either way I felt it important to write a little bit about why I, as a British citizen, voted to leave the European Union. And, of course, in the true democratic fashion, please feel free to comment below.
I voted out, not because of immigration, because I'm not a racist, I voted out because the Common Market has evolved into something entirely different to what we as a people, signed up for originally
I'm not one of the older ones who voted us "IN" back in the 1970's. Back then the Common Market did not seem to appear to make much difference to the British people then. The economy was booming, there were plenty of jobs and it was way before "The Winter of Discontent", so it was, by all intents & purposes, the right thing for people as it t was all about trade.
But, now the EU has evolved into a huge bureaucratic monster, which clearly has empire building aspirations, it has eroded our ability to self-determination, our independence, even our ability to make our own laws. It has also taken away the voice of the man & woman on the street.
For a long time now the normal man & woman has felt unheard, ignored & ridden roughshod over by an uncaring, austere organisation that takes almost none of their feelings & traditions into account.
And, that is the reason why I voted out.
