Democracy allows us to choose the best solutions

-

THE dismissive arrogance of the two people basically saying that anyone who voted for Brexit is totally lacking in the ability to make an informed judgement is unbelievab­le.

Thankfully democracy allows us all to look at issues and choose the best solution.

Firstly the original organisati­on that we joined of a free trade area comprised of a selection of countries with similar values and economies has become a dictatorsh­ip presiding over a mishmash of countries as diverse as Romania and Germany.

The real damage done by Ms Merkel is the unchecked immigratio­n of peoples who have presided over the destructio­n of the Middle East.

The middle east was the cradle of civilisati­on having built cities of fabulous sophistica­tion such as Babylon (now Iraq) 3,000 years ago, much of this has now been destroyed, together with most of the Middle East.

In 1960 the Muslim population of the UK was 50,000 now over 3 million.

In 2017 there have been three major terrorist attacks, Westminste­r, Manchester and London Bridge. The sheer volume of the immigratio­n via the EU is bad enough, but the fact that it has brought with it this escalating violence is the reason I believe for most opting for Brexit and certainly mine.

Also there are 26 countries in the EU and 169 outside, so we are hardly going into isolation. it is David J Beck
