I see many references to the unknown future of an "out"
vote yet surely the greater concern is what is ahead
within the EU - considering the insidious stealthy
creation of what is now a political supra-national entity.
The creeping ingestion of the various nation states is more
appropriate to a "python" than Major's tortuous analogy.
And why this fear of isolation when the wide world
watches and waits beyond?
To paraphrase an old saying:
Faint heart never won fair trade.

David,
I`ve just been watching that last poignant episode of Blackadder again tonight, so this very well reasoned and
rhymed piece is warningly timely.

Particularly true are the lines;

`We can`t stand in isolation
But is the answer to talk to oneself
Then can we really trust our own politicians
Many heads can be better than one
So I`m choosing a ship, not a dinghy`

Those Labour supporters worried about our (immigrant maintained) N.H.S. would do well to think on Major`s words about Hungry Pythons.

Each to his/her own. So - good luck.
But I'd rather take the risk of my own country's decisions
about the path it takes. And if things go pear-shaped,
then we can get on and face it without any "say-so"
from elsewhere's unelected few.
