You have a misconception that we are currently a great power.

It's all very well saying change the EU form within, but evidence suggests otherwise.

Outvoted 72 times, not least in the appointment of the cretin Juncker, who we opposed, but most other states thought would be a good idea. Clearly incorrect.

Ok sorry my mistake. I didn't realise you were happy being a poorer even less influential power. Funny thing is the demogaphics suggested we could have been more powerful than Germany by 2050 and led Europe. But no, the people preferred to be a kind of Potugal.

What demographics be they? More loser nonsense?

You already know virtually every one of the threats made before the vote haven't come to pass. Currency, stocks, emergency budget, informal negotiations, freedom of movement between Eire and NI, ScotRef 2, inwards investment (Siemens, Boing, Amazon). The only downer is we are still tulipe at international football. Can't have everything I suppose.

Don't worry the penny will drop eventually, even for you.
Or do you honestly think this is going to turn out ok.?

Germany has a falling birth rate and population size which is why Merkel was happy to let in Syrians who were clever enough to walk across Europe leaving the thick ones to come to the UK.

From the FT ( you'll have to Google it to get the full article )

Germany’s deputy chancellor has written to bosses of the country’s leading companies demanding they hire more refugees, after a survey found they had taken on a grand total of just 54.

Interesting and balanced article. Appears that through a combination of cultural mis-match, lack of skills and German bureaucracy that there is a struggle going on to integrate the refugees.

Would've thought that non-German speaking people from an area of the world with poor STEM skills would struggle to find a role in high-tech Germany? That certainly could not have been predicted.

The threat of them turning up en masse at the border to be waived through once Merkie gave them all German citizenship is enough to justify Brexit, I really don't want to find out how many of them can drive a Lorry...

The lorry driver was from Tunisia.

France have a historical problem with people from North Africa due to how the government treated them in decolonisation and afterwards when some moved to France.

We are far more likely to be terrorised by Muslim converts, or British born and raised children of Muslim immigrants.

These things generally work out fine. Once the grown-ups get involved. Worry not, it won't involve you as a backbone and initiative will be required. You can just carry on in charge of the Stationery cupboard or whatever equally pivotal role you currently perform safe in the knowledge that better and brighter people are charting our progress.

Please do the needful, sign and post on social media and email to everyone.

Very important to ensure our democratic choice is actioned.

All the petition will do is make the government consider it for debate. It doesn't mean it will be debated. So, it's very unimportant really.

(If 52% to 48% doesn't make it happen a few hundred thousand signatures isn't really going to make any difference, is it?).

Granted but no need to stick extra wood on the fire is there?
