Shall we be in or shall we come out? That is the question.

Of course I am talking about the referendum. Are you as confused as I am?

For once, and for a change, I believe that Politicians of all hues  really have the Country’s best interests at heart.

the problem is they do not know what the best interests are.

It might be an idea for them all to make two lists. On one side you have the advantages. On the other the disadvantages. For example how much do we pay into the EU and how much do we get out?

Does it make travel to EU countries easier?  Do the Farmers get EU subsidies?

Does the European Court advantage or disadvantage us? And so on.

My problem is with the people whom we elect to represent our Country in Europe. I have not got a clue as to who any of them are. In the area where I live I have never seen or heard of my MEP and on talking with friends of mine, they are in the same situation.

those on the Brexit side  tend to blame the EU for everything that goes wrong in Great Britain, but we do have a good number of MEP’s representing us, so, apart from drawing their salaries, what are they doing? Like a great many other people, I haven’t a clue.

Just like everything else in life, there are advantages and disadvantages on both sides, and we have to weigh up on balance, which side will we go for, it will never be perfect.

On balance I think that any side that Mr Boris,(I’m in it for me) Johnson is on, I will not be. The thought of him in charge of government, tends to fill me with trepidation.

I am also annoyed about the Referendum itself. it was not called for the benefit of the British people, my understanding is that it was called because |Mr Cameron had to appease Mr Nigel Farage.

We elect a government to represent us for five years, and during that time it is the Government, or more accurately our MEPs who  should be fighting for a better deal for us.

Who expects to keep a dog and bark yourself?

All over the World, the British are considered to be a an intelligent and well educated nation, so why are there so few intelligent and well educated people leading us?

We must have a few, but I cannot name any.
