We don’t have bottomless coffers

In actual fact it is alleged that there are many other EU members, standing on the sidelines, waiting to see how successful this wonderful country of ours will prove to be once we are free again.

They will then follow suit, the EU will disband and the crumbling Euro will be no more. Once again, the ‘bulldog breed’ has come to the fore and bravely taken the first step to freedom.

Free to pass our own laws, good or bad and be in charge of our own destiny. It won’t be utopia, but it will be a darn sight better than the wilderness we have been in during recent years. At the start of the EU, one of the main issues was that there would be freedom of movement, where people would be able to work in any member country.

Great idea – but which country was favourite? Good old England! Proof, if needed was the Calais refugee camps fiasco.

People risked their lives coming through other EU countries to get to the Promised Land. England – the land of milk and honey, a soft touch. These people know nothing of the early struggles and fights for justice by past generations to get to the standards and benefits available today.

The EU has been in place for some 40 years so the doom and gloom brigade of whom, it seems, Trevor Fisher is one, are in the age group which has no concept of life before the EU was formed.

I’d have no problem with immigrants coming here if we had a bottomless pit of money and a solvent, fair NHS but we are over populated if the floodgates were closed immediately.

Think of the population explosion in the years to come. What will happen to our grandchildren and great-grandchildren’s quality of life then?

It has been stated by a politician in recent months that the immigrants will not be a drain on the NHS.

What planet is he on – sheer numbers is the red light. All politicians and their ilk are above that problem. They will have private health care which they can easily afford.

I rest my case.
