IF WE LEAVE THE EU - WHAT NEXT ?
It is very important to maintain very good relations with the people of Europe. There will be a temptation for the STAY IN factions and the EU Public Relations teams to convey that ....BRITAIN has turned its back on EUROPE. This will turn Europeans against BRITISH Products and Services and it will undoubtedly have a detrimental effect on British Trade. It may even spark a Trade War between the EU and the UK in which everyone will lose.
So, BRITAIN must win the PR Battle of Europe.
How can we do this ?
- The BRITISH Government must spend money in European Newspapers advertising the fact that The British People are still Europeans.
- We British love the Peoples of Europe and we want a Happy,Peaceful and Prosperous relationship with all the Nations of Europe including Russia.
- The British Media have a big part to play in a Post EU situation.
The Daily Mail and The Daily Express for examples need to curtail their Anti- Europe rhetoric and blazing Headlines.
- We are not voting against the Peoples of Europe. It is the EU that has caused BRITAIN to have a Referendum with such uncertainty.
- Politicians of all Parties must talk positively about Europe. They must not sound triumphant as if we have overcome Napoleon or Hitler again ! Be careful with the language you use Politicians and Newspaper Journalists - and the Television Presenters !
- We ordinary Citizens have a role to play as well. When on holiday in Europe talk positively about the future within Europe.
Tell our EUROPEAN hosts that we have not divorced Europe but the EU Federal System of Government.
A post EU period needs careful handling for all of us in Britain.
We have got to get the right tone in dealing with the EU and EUROPEAN Peoples.
If Scotland votes to want to join the EU and they are accepted by the EU Member Nations, let them go their own way. Let us remain strong Trading Partners. Wish our Scottish Neighbours every happiness and prosperity in the future - just like we have done for EIRE. No discrimination and no backlash !
Let us respect the role of Democracy just like we have wanted in our Referendum with the EU.
Whatever happens in the future, We Britons should remember - We trade with the World. We will continue to trade with Europe - trade barriers would be detrimental for everyone in Europe. We have growth markets such as India, Malaysia, Indonesia, China,USA and Canada, South America, Australia and New Zealand....and growth Markets in Africa. What a World ! What an opportunity.
If the Referendum result is To Leave the EU, it will not be the end of the World for BRITAIN.
It will be the Beginning of the New World for BRITISH enterprise, Management and Skills in its great MultiCultural population.
Will we fear the post EU World ?
NO,NO,NO as Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher would have said !
