#EUreferendum the "fish" analogy

David Cameron said the other day a reason to remain in the EU was because he "wanted the UK to remain a big fish in a big pond".

So dwelling on that my reply is this :

1. The EU pond is getting shallower and shallower and stagnating. The euro and trying to pretend all the 28 countries have the same market needs is ridiculous.  It is not working. The EU is failing. There is incredible levels of youth employment in the south - huge debt problems unresolved and a policy of free movement of labour that is causing imbalance and tensions all across Europe. As a political experiment the water is draining out.
2. The EU pond is being clogged up by knotweed. The EU is not only shamefully undemocratic and bureaucratic but it suffers from megalomania. It wants an army - it wants federalisation to make EU countries even more subservient to the Brussels machine and the Germans and French behind it. Its costs are incredible - its excesses disgusting. The gravy train and the noses in the trough has to end. Our country needs to be freed up from all this nonsense - to be able to swim freely again.
3. It is a biological fact - the bigger the pond the bigger the fish. Our development as an outward looking nation is being stunted by membership of the EU. We cannot do our own trade deals - the EU has to do it for us. It is not working. There is a massive pond out there called the global ocean. We used to swim in it. We need to get back to it because that is where the other big fish are. We can swim with them again. We can shoal with them again. We can grow healthier - bigger - we can get our mojo back - sling off the EU net that is holding us in and stopping us from being free and engaging with the world.
4. Too many fishers are trying to scramble onto our island. Our little Island that we used to be so proud of is being over run by migrants jumping off their own Island's because they see easy rich pickings here. Unless we get it under control our Island will be raped and spoilt for ever. We won't know who or what we are. This is our big chance before the net is closed for a generation or more.

VOTE LEAVE and be free again.
