The UK is badly divided between those that wish to remain in the EU and those that want to leave.
For months we keep hearing how bad leaving will be and that only “thick, uneducated, white, racists old people” are driving the leave campaign and that they did not know what it was they were voting for. Whilst “clever, educated, young people” do know what they voted for.
The truth is no one knows what the outcome will be if parliament finally decided to accept the vote of the majority of people who voted in the referendum; instead of trying to fudge round the edges and keep us within Europe without any rights.
As a retired head hunter, I give you all the advice I gave all my placements over 22 years, “once you resign never accept a counter offer or look back, look to the future and how you can make it work.”
On this side I am now convinced that there is a big difference between the Remain camp and the Leave camp in how they look at life.
The Remain camp remind me of people suffering from the Stockholm syndrome, they have been captive for so long that they have developed a psychological alliance with their captors as a survival strategy during captivity. These people are scared to leave or do anything different, they have no imagination except that fed to them from their captors and they have no ambition to grow; other than within the constraints foisted upon them.
The Brexiters on the other hand want to break free, they wish to cast off the manacles and grow, they have foresight and ambition, they can see a future out there in the wide world and wish to take advantage and better themselves. They wish to emulate their ancestors in being risk takers by taking a leap into the unknown. Yes, some parts may well fail, but the majority will grow.
It is a risk, but one that we should take. Without people willing to take a risk we would still be sitting in the trees or caves, we wouldn’t have had the industrial revolution or grown the cities we now have.
It is time for the UK to have a bold and innovative government, one that is willing to lead and take risks; and I am afraid looking at both the Parliament and the decrepit House of Lords I can see but a small handful of people who are worthy of this country and its myriad of races that we call British; the rest are an embarrassment at best and downright dishonest at worst.
