When I look at my family we are a mixture of English, Welsh and Scottish roots with a bit of Irish thrown in which makes us British. More recently we have German, French and African spouses added to our mixed gene pool. I have friends who are Indian, Afghan, Pakistani, Spanish, Polish, Portuguese, Italian and Romanian. I may be an old git but I am not some stupid little Englander. We live on a pokey little island in the north sea and in the modern world we are quite insignificant but what makes us great is the alliances and friends we have in the Commonwealth and the EU as well as the USA. If we tear apart from all or any of these we become much weaker.
What concerns me most is that nobody has actually said how we will be better off outside the EU. We have had some lies and distortions and glib remarks but no hard statements, facts or evidence.
What upsets me most is the shortage already of EpiPen's which my granddaughter needs to control her allergy and some of my medication is already in short supply too. These could be matters of life and death. You do not glibly dismiss these concerns you provide hard evidence that all will be fine. There is already evidence of the disaster that Brexit will be and I absolutely despair when I hear ordinary people interviewed on the radio who say all will be fine and we just have to get on with Brexit. FFS how does some ordinary Joe know this? The gullibility of some of our fellow citizens astonishes me.
Reflecting on this the other day I came to the conclusion that I cannot be British as I think so very differently from the people who keep pushing for Brexit.
Finally when the **** has any Tory done anything in the best interest of the ordinary working person. They look after their frinds in the City and themselves and the rest of us can go hang.
