We are stronger if we don’t disconnect

IF YOU think that British justice is the best in the world, it would be better to stay in the EU, so we could improve EU law.

If you are surprised now to be told that it does not operate as well as you had believed, it would be better to stay in the EU, where British legal practice might be improved.

Anybody who believes in anything, in cooperation between police forces and national security forces to combat terrorism, drug gangs, people-trafficking; in compelling international companies to pay taxes, to maintain an adequate pension fund, and abhor offshore banking, would be completely opposed to separating from people who have the same beliefs as themselves, in other countries.

It does not even sound intelligent that we presently have excellent combined and shared knowledge of terrorists, so we shall now sever every working link of operation with 27 countries, and hope that it could work as well without. That is not even honest.

It is obvious that if you care about global warming, the protection of the oceans, the purity of the air we breathe, the pollution of beaches or the land, that such causes cannot possibly be served by leaving the EU.

Only scoundrels with a malignant agenda would pretend that the future ecology of our shared planet could be achieved by nations choosing to be isolated.

Substantially damaging our present trade with all nearest countries, as a first step to some phantom successful trade to the other side of the globe, should be sufficient warning that your trust is misplaced. Neville Westerman
