Re: Curious about reasons for Brexit
@welshweyr, while I agree the campaign on both sides was extremely mishandled, i'll also note that the stay campaign's depiction of those who voted to leave as basically a bunch of nazis and the implication that a vote to leave Europe was automatically in favour of nationalization and racist policies was equally involved with spin, but that's generally how political campaigns work, and to an extent most debates generally, very few decisions are based on rational choice, especially where a majoritarian prejudice is concerned.
Actually i'm sort of amused particularly with being in the states now just how much doom and gloom and spin is being stated. One particularly amusing comment was a very dire report that "now the boarder between southern and northern ireland will need full boarder control and checks since it's a separate country"
Hmmmm, really? Southern Ireland is a separate country with it's own boarder to britain? did this
just happen now? Why didn't anyone tell us, you know perhaps in the last century or so .
What happens next we'll see, but really I don't think the doom sayers will be proved correct. AFter all, nobody ever said Britain would stop trading in europe or cease being part of what used to be the e e c, and heck we never had the Euro anyway.
