My thoughts on yesterday’s results, for what it’s worth.

We have been mauled by a team of wreckers, acting out of self interest, at a time when the political opposition is weak. Cameron gambled with the nation’s future and has lost; but we have lost far more than he. We now face the prospect of being seen as xenophobic and bitterly divided, which the result shows to be partly true. 
But British people are, apart from the thugs, not like that, and somehow we must find a way through this, never forgetting how deadly it is to sleep when forces of purely self-Interest seek to change a value system cultured by caring people over half a century after the second of two European wars. 

The economic effects on our trading and credit status will be catastrophic and the ‘myophobes’ are just waking up, startled, at what they have done. 

Truly a hijacking of our former moral and political status. 

The really sad thing it that the human fodder for the right wing coup that this is will suffer the most, but the wrecking crew knew that all along; and knew they only had to push the right banalities of race and ‘sovereignty’, hypnotising the unthinking mass with the hypnotic phrasing of ‘take back control’ to make happen the dreadful result of yesterday.
Sadly, we are now faced with the result, and the majority of British business stares at the disappearing back of David Cameron in disbelief. 

I do not mean to imply that all those voting for Brexit were unthinking; many are very intelligent people who passionately believed that ‘independence’ could be right path. But this age is one of extreme connectedness, and we have signalled to the world that we are prepared to let a mainly older group of our population decide on an isolated future, closing all sorts of doors for our children. 

This morning we see that our international credit ratings have been slashed and that many major banks and manufacturing operations are planning their moves away from Britain so that they can remain in an EU geography. 
Pandora’s box has well and truly been opened…

    • Thank you, Diana. People have no idea what they’ve done… It’s not like losing an election, it’s forever. There is such a heavy sadness in half the population.

      • Mr Farage (I couldn’t possibly plaster his given name across your page… well, not without offending anyway) was on the news this afternoon, and he kept referring to it as “our victory in this election”. I suspect his responses may be on speed dial, and even he didn’t expect to be out of a job quite so soon… 😉
