1421904 2016-06-20 00:55:00 I think Brian Easton opinions on Brexit are worth reading, also some pertinent comments:

Left wing git never gets it right.

Watch my Brexit film for the facts.

The part where he says stay.

1421907 2016-06-20 03:41:00 I watched your film Cic. I thought it could have been scripted by Roger Douglas. It may be right, but it seemed to me to be as slanted as anything produced by that Newman woman's outfit. They certainly didn't attempt to look at any of the opposing arguments; and neither did they have to - it wasn't a public TV documentary or an academic exercise. They set out to draw the viewer into their camp like any other propagandists would. I noticed the film kept away from some of the brexit spokespeople that might scare the horses - Boris for example, and they avoided Farage's racist rubbish like his recent Nazi-like poster.

So we got the arguments for leaving Europe, but not the other side, so I am none the wiser really. Good thing I don't have a vote!

What can I say J, I start from the position that England is loosing it's sovereignty, that can't be justified, from there on I have read in depth from that point of view and am convinced of leaving.

My view of other side has been cursory, but have seen nothing to convince me that there is any merit in staying.

Every one ends up coming from a bias and you know mine.

1421909 2016-06-20 06:17:00 Fair enough Cic; I can't work out why they got into it in the first place! Old needle nose must surely have had some idea what they were giving away? John H (8)

1421911 2016-06-20 06:22:00 BTW, when we were buying our first house in the early 70's, or not long after, our solicitor told us he was off to Britain to score a job with the EU or ECC or whatever it was called at the time. He was cockahoop, claiming that he could never earn that much money in NZ. Knowing I was qualified as well, he urged me to do the same. Some had an early eye for the gravy train. John H (8)

Oh for a bit of hindsight facility.
