Does anyone remember the Millennium bug ? Well I do.Remember all those predictions from the creme de la creme of the expert's experts that the world would probably grind to a halt because the computureware of the known world would probably not be able to recognize the arrival of the new Millennium and untold chaos would result.
Nearly everybody was scared shit less.
And what happened?
Well aside from the computer geeks earning a fortune tweaking programmers galore and making personal fortunes Nothing did noR did the world end either.
Nor will the exit of the UK FROM THE EU SIGNAL THE END OF the known world AS WE KNOW IT.
It is not that long since Hitler's 1,000 year Reich was birthed and I am surprised that the EU has lasted the 60 years that it did.
Germany has been the greatest beneficiary because it was able to sell its ware into every corner of the EU AND IT HAS GONE FROM TO STRENGTH.
When we were in the shit they and the rest of our friends just screwed us into the mire as they are now doing to Greece,Spain et all.
Remember the camps set up at Calais where illegal refugees did all they could to get into the UK.because THE REST OF THE EU wasn't good enough for them.
Well expect Ireland to become the next staging post to get into the UK if it takes off post Brexit.And given its Former Empire I guess it will.
IT IS IRONIC AND WRONG THAT IN THE HUNDRED YEARS SINCE WE CARVED OUT OUR FREEDOM THE JUDAS GOATS THAT PASS THEMSELVES OFF AS STATESMEN HAVE GIVEN AWAY OUR SOVEREIGNTY TO SUCH AN EXTENT THAT WE CAN'T EVEN NEGOTIATE FOR OURSELVES OUR FUTURE BUT HAVE GIVEN THAT FUNCTION TO STRANGERS.
We should have the self belief the Brits have and paddle our own canoe.
