Re: UKIP leader Nigel Farage stands down
I'll be a lot happier when people stop sniping, bitching, & making snide comments and just making the best of things, we are where we are, there's no reason why we can't be doing as well as we do now if we pull together.
It'll end up being very unhealthy for the country if people keep pulling it down, naysaying and being defeatist before we've even begun.
It'll end up a self fulfilling prophesy if it goes on, you'd think that's what people want.
Dangerous and stupid thing to do just to say 'I told you so'
Some of us who have been on the planet for more than 5 minutes knows our country has been around a lot longer than the 40 years or so we've been in the EU & the world is a damn sight larger than Europe.
In the mid to long term we'd have had to expand beyond the old continent in any case, there's vast expanding and emerging markets in places like China, India, Brazil.
That's assuming that the EU hadn't imploded anyway under the weight of most of North Africa... sorry Libya & Syria... or because it's currency had collapsed under the weight of Greek & other poor countries debt.
This is an opportunity not a tragedy.
Yes there's risks, there's always been risks, that's life. Being timid doesn't do well on a personal level nor on a national one.
FFS pull together, it'll be worth a lot more than a 'told you so'.
