Back in 2016 in Britain, a lot of strange things were happening. In the spring of that year celebrities we're dying in large numbers, the weather was strange ; we were getting storms from the continent instead of ocean and we had a life changing referendum to choose our relationship with the EU.
Anyway..
I was already a Eurosceptic person long before the referendum, even in the previous decade when they were planning to launch the euro currency. Not because of politicians or right wing media, no. I was a Eurosceptic because of my own observations.
I knew that the member states of the EU were all very different and big corporations take advantage of that and abuse it. I considered some of the member states to be tax Havens and saw how the multinational companies were placing their headquarters there and leaving ordinary people to pay more tax. I saw some member states with very low inflation so their work force would come here and lower the pressure of companies to raise their wages and then the government forced to raise taxes again because lower wages means less tax. I saw VAT tax grow to a staggering 20% because we can't afford to pay our civil servants. I watched fishermen with small boats being told they could catch fish off the coast of Spain as if they could afford the diesel to get there and big trawlers taking all their fish stocks from the local coast line.
I won't go on... I will just say my vote had nothing to do with red buses or Nigel. I saw the BBC and celebrities condemn ordinary people throughout the country as mislead fools. But I was always truthful about my views long before 2016. I left my views in plain sight for all to see if they really wanted to. But no one wanted to listen. Now the politicians and media are upset.
