WHAT HAPPENS IF THE UK VOTE NO ?
What does BRITAIN gain if we vote -
To Leave the EU?
Direct control over Immigration Policy. We would only allow people to work in the UK if we have a need for example - Doctors, Nurses, Teachers. An Australian type of Work Visa.
We would not contribute to the EU Budget or Common Agricultural Policy. We would help our farmers as we feel appropriate.
If Scotland voted to leave the UK, we would develop a new relationship with Scotland for mutual prosperity. No backdoor entry of EU citizens via Scotland.
EU workers in the UK would get Welfare payments from their country of origin.
We would remain in NATO and all agencies for law and order.
BRITISH citizens would be subject to UK Laws and Judiciary.
The UK would serve voluntary on EU and International Committees for mutual benefit.
We would continue Free Trade in line with International Treaties and as Membership of World Trade Organisation, UN and World Financial Agencies.
The British Parliament would be Sovereign.
Britain would be an Independent Country again playing a leading role for Peace and Prosperity the World.
Britain would serve on all mutually beneficial Agencies but BRITAIN would decide which agencies and on what terms.
Investment in the UK would be subject to Bank of England regulations.
The £ would remain our currency.
Britain would decide the rules for the UK Fishing Industry, Steel Industry and Anti Dumping Laws.
Remember the foundation of our role in Europe......The UK voted in the Seventies to join the European Economic Community - a Trading Bloc. This was our Democratic Choice. I voted for this.
What did we end up in ?........The European Union. A totally different Organisation. A Federal System . Do we want to be a Democratic People or a Subservient People who will be forced to live in any system of Government in which we have no say ? This is the Big Issue.
Your choice is Democracy or Eurocracy ?
EUROPE ............YES
EU........................NO

THE OUTSOURCING DANGER TO BRITAIN AND EUROPE
OUTSOURCING - THE ATTACK ON BRITISH AND EUROPEAN JOBS
Whatever the result of the BRITISH Referendum.
The attack on BRITISH and EUROPEAN Jobs has been well under way for some years now and no-one seems to be doing anything about it.
The threat comes from the Concept of Outsourcing Jobs to low cost economies. Amongst the culprit Nations are China, Phillipinnes and India to mention just a few.
There is a long list of Companies, part of their Globalisation Strategy, who are doing this. They are making British workers redundant in order to outsource jobs to these low cost economies to save Operational Costs. What a great idea or is it ?
Top Management of companies are not taking into account -
The Social Costs of their actions.
The Stress and unhappiness that they cause to workers who lose their jobs as a result of Outsourcing.
They ignore the negative impact on the home economy of the loss of spending power.
They forget the Welfare Payment and severance pay costs of their actions.
The waste of home grown talent.
They ignore the fact that BRITAIN pays £ Billions per annum in Overseas Aid to these Developing Economies....now they want to export them our jobs as well. Crazy ? Yes I think so !
This Outsourcing Phenomenon has gone far enough. Should we not be encouraging the growth of jobs at home and not export our jobs ?
Should we not be supporting BRITISH Families and European Families ?
As the Developing Economies growth, are we not in danger of losing our best talents and technological skills because they cannot compete with low wages ? Is this what we want ?
Do we want a skills reversal World......BRITAIN becomes the Second World Nation whilst India becomes the Developed and Prosperous Nation ?
Am I stupid ?
YOU DECIDE.

THE MAGICIAN'S ACT - EU OR UK
THE MAGICIAN'S ACT - Monsieur Le Kidologiste...............
To be or not to be....EU or UK ?
If you have ever been to the Theatre to see an Act of Magic, you will have noticed that the Magician tries to distract you, whilst he performs an amazing trick of Magic. He has deceived you by his slight of hand. He has made you concentrate on secondary issues rather than the main issues.
Brilliant you may have said. Or is it,once you know how he has done the trick ?
There is no doubt that David Cameron did his very best to renegotiate better terms for the UK within the EU structure.
He worked hard. He is a decent and excellent Prime Minister.
He has shown courage by giving the BRITISH people a Referendum on whether to stay in or out of the EU. That took guts and honesty. He has both. BUT, there is a big But !
What is the big issue at stake ?
It is that in the seventies, the British People in their Referendum thought that BRITAIN would be joining the EEC - the European Economic Community - a trade agreement.
What has happened since that Referendum has been one large development to a Federal System.
David Cameron will say that he has won a guarantee that BRITAIN will not be forced into an European Super State. Wonderful news is it not ? No. We are already in a Federal System of European Government.
Let me remind you of the facts.
- We are one Vote in the council of Ministers.
- We vote for MEPs to sit in the European Parliament in Strasbourg and Brussels. We are a minority voice.
- We are subject to the rules set by the European Commission.
- We are subject to the European Court of Justice.
- The British Parliament is no longer supreme.
Am I not right ? Am I dreaming ? Are we not subject to an European Federal System of Government ? Are we no longer an Independent Nation State ? Is this an European Super State in reality if not in name ?
This is the big issue. To be or not to be....an independent Nation State or one amongst 28 Member States where change is difficult without unanimity of votes on key matters. Look how it had taken 4 years of negotiations across Europe by David Cameron, many meetings through the night, 5am the last meetings, arguments galore. Still, the EU Parliament has to have its say and the individual State Parliaments and Cabinets have to have their say......and what about Public Opinion and oh, the Lawyers........?
I think that I have seen through the Magician's slight of hand trick.
All the GAINS from the recent Brussels renegotiation are subservient to the real issue. To be or not to be........
In the coming IN or OUT debates, we must talk facts - if we get the truth and the facts.......
My verdict remains......
EUROPE......YES
EU................NO
Britain will never turn its back on EUROPE. We will always trade with Europe, live in peace and share common policies with our European friends.
But, please, allow us the chance to run our own affairs for better or for worse. Is that not what DEMOCRACY is all about ?

OUTSOURCING JOBS - CHEAP LABOUR DESTROYING JOBS
THE OUTSOURCING MYOPIA - A STRATEGIC CHANGE IN MINDSET IS NEEDED
In the 1960s Professor Theodore Levitt of the Harvard Business School wrote a best seller book which he called Marketing Myopia.
Today in 2016 I have called this article The Outsourcing Myopia because I believe that so many Global Companies are short sighted in their Strategy to outsource operational functions to lower costs but they fail to take into consideration the Social Costs of their decisions to outsource to India and the Philipinnes to give just two current examples.
From the Consumer point of view this has been a disastrous Policy and there has been so much criticism of these overseas outsourced companies that there is almost a stampede to relocate functions back in their home countries.
In Australia Richard Branson has build a strong company with his Virgin Australia. I have the greatest respect for Richard Branson who has done so much to create employment in so many Industries. However, with a shortage of jobs in Australia - particularly in Melbourne and Brisbane, his company Virgin Australia are still trying to lower costs by outsourcing functions. He is not alone in this drive to outsource and lose jobs in the country of operation.
The result of this policy is a high Social Cost which in my opinion outway the cost saving benefits of outsourcing to India.
For example, an Indian work person will not pay any taxes to help the Australian Economy. He or She will not buy food products in Australia, pay for a House, pay for consumer Durables in Australia.
The Australian work person loses income, costs the Australian Government in unemployment benefits and places enormous financial burdens on the Australian family. How can this be fair?
The truth is that the Virgin Management and like International Companies are too short sighted to care about Social Costs of outsourcing functions to India and elsewhere.
In my view, Management should build on the skills of the local worker. They should stop outsourcing to India and other low wages economies.
Globalisation has been a failure from the point of view of the advanced economy workers.
Top Management should factor in the Social Cost before taking decisions that cause unemployment and misery to the indigenous employees.
The Policy of Increasing Shareholder Value - preached by most Business Schools - should not be the main Strategic Objective of Top Management. Increasing Worker Value and Employment in the country of Operation should be given equal status in Corporate Policy.
So. Richard Branson and Virgin Australia and all you other Companies that think that outsourcing to India is a good thing, stop, change your Strategy and invest in the country that is giving you revenue and profit. So, put Social success first and build your workforce in the country of operation. Virgin Australia is Australian not Indian or Philipinnes.

A MESSAGE FROM ONE BRITISH CITIZEN
A MESSAGE FROM ONE BRITISH CITIZEN
To my fellow BRITISH Citizens - English, Welsh, Scots, Irish.
THE FUTURE OF BRITAIN AS EUROPEANS
I have already written two articles about BRITAIN and Europe namely the EU. Clearly. This is not enough.
At present there is so much confusion and distortion about this subject including down right lies and misinformation. So, what are the facts and the truth.
Britain will remain in Europe but may exit the EU. This is the big difference.
In my view - The British People want to -
Live in Peace with all our European neighbours.
Remain an Independent Sovereign Nation
Trade - free trade - with all European Nations for our mutual benefits. The EU represents 9 per cent of GDP according to Professor Minford of Cardiff University.
Enjoy holidays throughout Europe without hindrance.
Enjoy social and cultural exchanges with the people of Europe.
Remain within NATO to protect Europe.
Encourage Joint Ventures
Exchange Police information to stop criminals and terrorists
Respect Freedom of speech.
Respect The Laws of each Nation.
Respect the Principles of the United Nations
Respect the Political Institutions of each country
Promote Democracy within Europe
Enjoy Religious Freedom
These are some of the most popular needs of the British People.
In my view - The British People do NOT want to -
Be Members of a Political Union called the EU.
Have UK Laws made by unelected Civil Servants in Brussels.
Use The EU Parliament to create Laws for the British
People.
Reject the £ as their Currency and do not wish to join the EuroZone.
Accept the inefficient EU Commission and Institutions which have gone many many years without their Accounts passed by the Auditors - a situation which would never be accepted in Commercial Enterprises.
Accept the net excessive costs of membership of the EU Club. The UK pays into the EU more than it receives.
Restrict the UK Fishing Industry, Steel Industry, Farming Industry, Food Industry to name just a few Industries which have been adversely affected by EU Regulations and Red Tape.
Join a European Army.
Allow the EU to negotiate trade deals globally embracing BRITAIN and prevent BRITAIN making bi- lateral agreements as it wishes.
Accept free movement of Labour and Migration without conditions.
Be subservient to European Law.
So, there are big differences when you examine the TRUTH and FACTS. If BRITAIN leaves the EU it will NOT be leaving Europe !
Labour, Liberal and some Conservatives keep talking of how bad it will be for Britain if we leave Europe. They are misleading the Public.
EUROPE.......................YES
European Union...........NO
We should never have allowed BRITAIN to be sucked into the EU Political Structure when all the BRITISH People wanted was a Free Trade EEC Agreement. Prime Minister Edward Heath was duped into the 1973 Treaty - or was he just deluded ?
Yes, for decades, We the British People have been sinking into the bog of European Federalism.
The EU has a Federal Parliament, Federal Electoral System, Federal non elected President and Foreign Secretary, Federal Commission and a Federal Council of Ministers. What more proof do you want to show that the EU motivation is Federalism ? The UK is just one state - a cog in the EU Wheel ! Is this what we want for our children and Grandchildren ?
Prime Minister David Cameron is trying his best to get concessions from the EU prior to a British Referendum. Any concessions are likely to avoid the key issue - Does Britain want to be subservient in a Federal System or not ?
I have previously written that if the British People vote to remain in the EU, the rule reference Welfare Payments and Healthcare should be based on the following principle - the costs of EU citizens working in Britain for Welfare and Healthcare must be paid by the Country of Origin.
No more payments for Polish or other EU Nationals children living in Warsaw or elsewhere for workers living in Britain. Is this not fair ?
I do not think that a 4 year residence before payments is acceptable. It is a fudge pure and simple.
It is about time that we returned to normality.
I rest my case !

SON OF RAF BOMBER COMMAND
SON OF BOMBER COMMAND
It had been raining very heavily in Swansea South Wales on the
19th October 1943 as I made my way home from Terrace Road Junior School Swansea. I was 6 years old at the time.
As I waded through the flood water at the bottom of the hill, I saw my Grandfather Captain Bill Woodman waiting for me at the end of the road. He had come to tell me that my father Flight Sergeant Haydn Davies VR 207 Squadron Lancaster Bombers had been shot down over Hannover Germany.
At the time I thought, I am sure he will have bailed out and was alright. As the time went by, I realised that he was never coming home. He was 26 years old at the time and he was destined to be one of the 55,000 Heroes of Bomber Command in World War 2. The spitfire pilots were to be known as The Few - my father was one of The Many.
For the past 75 years, I have missed having a father. I have never forgotten the few precious memories I have of him.. He used to bring home tins of orange juice and chocolates - he went without himself on the long flights to Germany from his Lincolnshire airfield for me to enjoy the delicacy.
Many years later, I flew with Baroness Lady Sue Rider whose husband was Group Captain Sir Leonard Cheshire, Commander of Group 5 Bomber Command in WW2 - my father's Chief, to Lourdes in France. I was a Business Adviser and I had given my services free to help Lady Ryder decide if she should create a Sue Ryder Home for the Disabled in Lourdes - one of her life's ambitions.
She was very proud of Bomber Command and had shown me her private museum dedicated to her husband at her Headquarters in Suffolk.
I advised her to go ahead and realise her dream. I prayed with her at St Bernadette's Grotto at Lourdes. Today, there is a Sue Ryder presence in Lourdes. What an amazing connection with Bomber Command.
I,too am proud of Bomber Command. We must never let future generations forget the significance of the role of The Many in defeating evil. It must inspire the RAF of today to continue to defeat evil.
In memory of people like my father and Veterans living today, I ask you to support the work of Bomber Command.

THE CAMERON WISH LIST FOR EU REFORM - The views of One British Citizen
THE CAMERON WISH LIST FOR EU REFORM - MY WISH LIST
So, at last Prime Minister has presented his demands to the EU to enable The United Kingdom to stay in the EU. He is trying. Already voices in the EU are raising objections.
As an ordinary British Citizen I too have a voice also.
Here are some of my Demands.
They do not have the right to claim Welfare Payments. Their Welfare Payments should be paid by their Country of Origin. That will mean no British Welfare payments to their wives and children back in countries like Poland, Romania, Bulgaria for example.
Why should British taxpayers have to subsidise foreign workers ?
These EU countries will not like this because they like to pass the buck to Britain.Work permits should only be issued to EU workers where they have got a job offer to fill positions which no British worker has applied for over a 3 months period.
EU workers who come to the UK for a job, then lose the job must not claim Welfare Payments in Britain but in their own country. This rule must also apply to British workers working in EU countries.
The cost of Asylum seekers must be paid for by a new UN budget.
Asylum seekers should also be directed to safe African States and countries who need more workers.
We are Europeans. We love Europe. We want peaceful relations within Europe. We want to protect our European Heritage.
CONCLUSION
I do not think for one minute that the EU will agree to these demands. The EU have failed to have their Accounts to be signed off by the Auditors for over 12 years. A disgrace.
I am getting convinced that the UK will leave the EU.
I predict that once the EU realises that the UK are going to leave they will offer the UK a new deal, watered down and ask the UK Government to have a second Referendum just like Ireland did.
ARE WE THAT STUPID ?

- EU citizens have the right to free movement within the EU on temporary stay Visas.
They do not have the right to claim Welfare Payments. Their Welfare Payments should be paid by their Country of Origin. That will mean no British Welfare payments to their wives and children back in countries like Poland, Romania, Bulgaria for example.

- The principal of Free International Trade must apply to the UK and EU in the event that Britain votes to leave the EU in the 2017 Referendum. There must not be any restrictive practices from the EU which would restrict UK Trade with EU countries and the Rest of the World.
- The British Parliament is Supreme. Even if the UK remains in the EU, any Legislation from the EU must be approved by the British Parliament. .
- Asylum applications must only be granted a temporary stay Visa. They must return to their Country of Origin when it is deemed safe to do so by the United Nations.
The cost of Asylum seekers must be paid for by a new UN budget.
Asylum seekers should also be directed to safe African States and countries who need more workers.
- We must seek closer ties with Europe for NATO, Policing, Cultural and Social interaction such as holidays, music, Joint Ventures and all normal peaceful activities. Free movement for holidays.
- No Healthcare Migrants unless their treatment is paid by Medical Insurance. No entry into the UK without valid Health Insurance. The NHS is losing £ Millions from unpaid bills.
- Diplomats who do not pay fines for one reason or not must be expelled.
- The Government must promote to the citizens of Europe that we are not against Europeans.
We are Europeans. We love Europe. We want peaceful relations within Europe. We want to protect our European Heritage.
CONCLUSION
I do not think for one minute that the EU will agree to these demands. The EU have failed to have their Accounts to be signed off by the Auditors for over 12 years. A disgrace.
