re: [Update] The UK votes to leave the EU

I honestly believe at this point the EU is more of a negative then a positive it is not democratic at all with too many unelected offices and powerful advisory boards that even over rule the parliament when it suits them. I do think it is possible for all European nations to trade and work together for the common good and be a beneficial thing for all nations involved but that is not the EU. The dream of a federal superstate is driving everything and nothing will be allowed to obstruct that end.

Europe is too diverse to ever be a single entity and whilst an illusion of success may be possible in the short term longer wise it will fail and likely badly so massively impacting all nations involved. Voting to leave ironically may be the way to a better way and future for all European nations and a better progression globally in terms of trade. I think it's important that the distinction between anti EU and anti European is highlighted as most of the people I know myself included are fully anti EU but pro European and the fact that some have decided being anti EU automatically means your anti European further highlights how far we have fallen in our attitudes.

Whilst this referendum has shown UK politicians to be what many of us have known for a while the UK is not the only nation with lazy and incompetent politicians it's Europe wide another side effect of the EU as no matter how badly most politicians perform nationally they are able to obtain lucrative careers in the EU after they get voted out. We need to leave not just for us but for everyone in the EU and only when we leave do we have a chance to rectify our domestic political situation a good start would be an end to professional politicians as we gave that a try and it's been a disaster let's get back to ordinary people from real life and pop the Westminster bubble once and for all.
