The EU Referendum - In or Out


The Choice

Should we stay united as 28 countries?

Or

Should we split the unity and leave to stand alone in Europe?

Would Britain be better ‘Outside’, alone, and ruled by only British Laws, standing on our own?

If we vote OUT, to trade, to travel, to work, to live within the remaining united 27 countries. Cross border territories would ONLY be reciprocated by European laws of those 27 nations upon whom the British public had chosen to shut the door on their own citizens!

We will be treated as we treat other nations, because that philosophy is enshrined in the Human Rights Act, that each member of the European Union have signed.

Ie.  To treat all people equally.

London, the current financial centre of the European community, will be no more attractive to the corporate whores of war.  The shift will be deadly and swift.   

We will have 24 months to renegotiate new trading/travel terms. 

In the between time, will British business confidence collapse?  Why, you may ask! 

Answer: Because the money will be elsewhere –

Worst case scenario

Social unrest will flourish – born out of desperation, citizens of Britain no longer able to bear the brunt of the inevitable increase in austerity. We will be consumed!  Literally bought up cheap. Forced into modern day slavery by Corporations, waiting like vultures, hovering right now above the heads of each and every one of our own loved ones heads…
All because a bunch of ‘mainly’ white middle aged and older men decided to go it alone – cut adrift from the other 27 nations, united in being European, who will learn the lessons Britain refused to, namely that only by working together and treating everyone as an equal, will we survive. 

Best case Scenario if we EXIT

We haven't got a clue what will happen, nor what Britain will do. 
But what we can be sure of is an onslaught, that money grabbing business men have planned from the beginning, ie to divide and rule.  

To exploit and land grab as much of our worlds resources as they possibly can.
Our very own megalomaniacs of the 21st century will reap the benefits of our self-imposed chaos– After all, their money hunger needs to be fed! So they start a war.  Carry on killing, just like before this stupid referendum ever raised its ugly head.

The only way to beat this dastardly plan is to STAY STRONG. Remain IN to Win the chance to fight for our rights from within a 'United European Union' workforce, to be reckoned with.

Divided we fall! Please Vote REMAIN, for the sake of us all.
