"when debate is lost, slander becomes the tool of the loser."
Branson... I'm 34, a borderline Millennial.... I just don't bury my head in the sand, and fortunately I wasn't subjected to a leftist indoctrination in higher education that most of the other millennial's were. The only reason the EU exists is due to the respective member states "people" saying they wanted it. In fact the biggest economies within the EU didn't even say they wanted it. They wanted to be part of the EEC, with 6 of the strongest European economies at the time (UK Included).
When Ted Heath (dodgy barsteward that he was, type his name and scandal into youtube to see why) took us into the EEC by referendum in 1975, it was a no brainer at the time, an economic union between countries of similar economic strength to us. Hell, if that was on the table now even I'd vote for it provided there was an agreement on immigration beforehand. The problem is human evolution isn't happy with keeping "as is"... we always try to build empires, we always try to expand... the 6 became 28 without any further referendum of the people.
Multiculturalism was added into the mix without the respective electorates ever being asked if they wanted it. In fact Enoch Powell who was labelled as a racist by the UK Press at the time... polls were conducted on the opinion of British people with regards to his "rivers of blood" speech... and 74% of British people actually agreed with him.
That didn't stop him being slandered, from being booted out of the establishment... who cares what the British people actually want, right?
Oh sorry I forgot, 100,000 people (0.29%) of the electorate that voted in the EU referendum marched in London to demand a second referendum. The British people must have changed their mind. They don't care about sovereignty, they don't care that Multiculturalism has failed.
Silly me.
