Good afternoon,
I am a young professional working and living in London as an accountant. The reason I have started this blog is to articulate my political views and, in particular, present a different view to the 'normal' view of young politics in the UK.
This is a particularly good time to start publicising my political views, perhaps even a little late, with the referendum on our membership of the European Union so close.
This first post will be about the topic I find most important in this debate, Sovereignty.
Constantly we are attacked with propaganda and 'facts' about the detrimental effect that either Brexit or Bremain will have on the Economy.
How has this become the most important fact in this debate? Surely the debate should focus on democracy.
Democracy is what has helped this great country blossom and be able to accept swathes of immigrants from the continent and further afield.
Democracy has made this country a powerful force in international diplomacy and take a leading role in peace keeping.
Democracy is what has enabled us to grow to the fifth largest economy in the world. And as a result support the EU through our excessive contributions.
When you think about which way you are going to vote focus on one thing. Do you want to vote for your leaders or not? Do you want to be able to remove these leaders if they are not representing your interests? Do you want someone who has never lived on our great island implementing laws that directly impact your life?
If you answered no to these then it is simple.
Vote Out!
I welcome your comments or questions.
