DESPITE the 'Remain' campaign's best efforts to disguise it, the EU isn't Europe — it's an artificially created, undemocratic 'superstate' in the making.
Britain has always been a 'good' European and if we vote Leave, we will continue to be an active European country maintaining excellent trading relationships with other states, through a re-creation and expansion of a new British-led free trading block —'EFTA'.
For over 200 years Britain has at times of crisis, voluntary fulfilled its historic role of 'saving Europe from itself' from the Napoleonic wars through to the coming collapse of the EU, we have always been willing to come to the aid of our continental neighbours.
The Referendum is the latest manifestation of this and by voting Leave in a few weeks time we will have the support of millions of Europeans from within the EU who fear for their own countries futures, be they Dutch, Danish or Swedish. Once we vote for Leave the end of the EU will rapidly come — a failed
state in every sense, economically, financially, socially, its borders and imported terrorism.
A return to independent nations rather than an enforced Union will enable freedom, democracy and free trade to flourish again both across Europe and the wider world. One question, knowing what has gone on, would you vote to join the EU if you had the choice on June 23?
