going back to the original topic.
twenty four hours have passed since I found out the result of the referendum and now that the shock is over and oxygen is going into the brain is normalised, perhaps an analysis of the situation may not be a bad idea.
!. We are already out of the decision making circle of the EU. The other 27 Remembers are meeting next week without us. So All those who voted out have already got their wish. They should now relax and enjoy fruits of their effort.
2. The economic doom and gloom predicted has already started by the fall of the pound and the share prices. Although they do tend to go up and down regularly for the financial boys to make living, the re-adjustment will soon show how much has been lost and more importantly will it be more or less than the 350 million a week we were contributing. Of course we have found out since the vote that that money was never going to be given to the NHS.
3. The drop in the pound is going to trigger an increase in the interests rates so those of us with mortgages will have to pay. Those in the establishment who are normally in control of money would like to thank Brexit for this extra bit of income especially after the banks collapsed, and although the government was very generous with their trillions of pounds of financial quantitative easing every little helps.
4, I personally never agreed with the old witch when she negotiated the rebate so we did not have to pay EU all the money we should have paid. So that no longer can be claimed and of course we in two years will no longer have to pay 350 million a week to the EU but we will not be in the free-trade area, so tax will have to be paid. Of course that tax can be reduced to the same level as what Switzerland and Norway has to pay. So in the end not only will we pay back the 350 to them, we will also pay bay back the tax rebate we got and a little bit more on top for good measure.
5. We will also find out soon the conditions for which we will be able to have the special reduced tax rate which will include freedom for EU migrants to be able to come and work in our country as well as claim what ever the local population can claim. As well as all the other laws that have been passed in the EU and will be passed in the future.
6. There is an added bonus that UK will not be there when these laws are being created so our usual anti-workers rights governments will not be able to block or water them down these laws.
Also all in all perhaps Brexit was not so bad after all when all consequences and effects are taken into account.
But this article from the Telegraph yesterday soon cheered me up. I don't normally read the Telegraph but yesterday I made an exception as it was such a momentous day. it is well worth a read.
