Lets hope that I am still around when everything is dusted and settled.
It could be three years before the UK is free of the control that the EU has over it. They make our laws and set some of our taxes.
If I was in the UK I would have voted to leave. 30 odd years ago I did not vote for a unelected body to control every aspect of my life in the UK as it has quietly and stealthly become.
I, like millions of others, voted for a common market, pure and simple, not for what has it evolved into, a giant undemocratic body of empire builders.
I lived through WW2 where millions died to prevent such a situation arising then a politicians let this happen by the back door.
It may suit the young of the country as it is but us oldies knew what things were like before and what it has become now.
Mind you the reason we had a referendum was a ploy by the ruling Conservative party to win over a lot of its own members who wanted to leave and were siding towards a new party formed for fighting for Independence from Europe. The ploy worked and they were re elected.
However they seriously underestimated the grey power and the result is over 60's won the day leaving the markets around the World in turmoil and the campaigning was the reason one very dedicated young female member of parliament was murdered ass a result of the referendum campaign.
The Prime Minister who thought a referendum was a good idea has announced his resignation.
The pound has dropped to around 1.35 US Dollars from around 1.48 so there will be a delay before I make any transfers from UK to here for a while.
That will mean a loss of about 4500 rmb a month income by my calculations. Oh well our Shenzhen investments have paid off nicely.
