We the British people, after a 43 year wait, delivered a verdict on June 23rd to separate ourselves from the so called “European Union”. (There is no union, Mrs Merkel unilaterally invited migrants and also dealt with Turkey). Now, it is the responsibility and duty of the politicians and bureaucrats to work out a conscious uncoupling. Everyone should remember that we are still a member of the most advanced family of European Nations and have not drifted away in the Pacific Ocean.
On our side it seems that both major political party leaders are behaving like a pack of jackals bickering over a piece of meat. They have neither shown a matured response to the democratic event or a vision for the future of this great nation. There is no going back without destroying our democratic values which we dearly cherish. On the other side, the conduct of Mr Juncker and others in Brussels by giving a warm reception to Mrs Sturgeon does not seem right unless their intentions are rotten.
We have not lost any of our enterprising spirit, talents and value system. Let us all unite as a citizenry of this sovereign nation and resolve to create our own brighter future by judicially dealing with Europe and developing a closer relationship with more than 7 billion other decent humans on our earth.
