This will undoubtedly be the first of many posts on the BREXIT campaign in the UK. The date has been announced for the referendum and it is....drum roll please.........23rd June 2016!!!
Now all the dirty tactics will be brought to play, the European Union will interfere (just like they did in the Republic of Ireland referendum) and the lobbyists will be out in force, spinning statistics to suit their own agenda.
Amidst all of this one thing needs to be kept in mind...
Who has the most to lose and who is prepared to lose it?
Take every single other reason to leave the EU out of the equation and focus on this question...
Which party was created to get the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland out of the European Union? Answer: UKIP
Whose party members and representatives have the most to lose (literally)? The Members of the European Parliament that represent UKIP.
The very party and people who stand to lose immediately should BREXIT come true would be the very same people whose political careers and income are derived from our membership of the EU. The UKIP MEP's (including Nigel Farage). So STOP! Before you make any decision based on the rhetoric from both sides. Remember that the very people who want out of the EU are the very people who will REALLY lose their jobs. All the rest is POTENTIALLY bad, but for the UKIP MEP's their careers and income will definitely go. These are the very people who know how the EU Parliament works and who are well aware of the Germanic/Franco power base of the EU and they want OUT!
