What was it to Diebiter?
Let me take a wild stab in the dark here:
1) Has he ever considered that we have for example one of the most one-sided extradition treaties in the world with the US? You know the one where they lock up our autistic people in supermax jails while IRA members remain beyond our laws in New York?
2) Has he ever considered the negative influence of foreign corporations on our NHS, public utilities and other public services?
3) Is he worried about the encroachment of American culture into virtually every aspect of British life. Has he even considered the recent demise of the British pub at the hands of the Seattle-born microbrewery?
4) Is he keen on strengthening our ties with Commonwealth nations? That's "our EU" remember, the one we set up for our own advantages.
5) Is he worried about the largest single immigrant group to the UK, the Chinese? Or Russian oligarchs with their criminal, sleazy corrupt backgrounds and connections?
Protecting our culture, laws and society is something I could get behind. However, the remainers seem to have a very selective narrowness of focus. Which makes me think they just don't like slavs or arabs much but are quite prepared to take it up the arse from the yanks or whomsoever they perceive as racially pure or big enough to push them around. Which makes for a sh** foreign policy.
If they were more even-handed it would be harder to argue the point.
