A Brexit Leader Responds

David Lott, retired RAF and airline pilot and one of the founders of the United Kingdom Independent Party, provides us a snapshot view of his take on the coming critical referendum on June 23rd.  Citizens of England, Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland will be casting ballots on whether the United Kingdom shall remain under the umbrella of the European Union. The fate of David Cameron's government and, perhaps the fate of Scotland remaining in the United Kingdom, ride on the outside of this difficult decision on the part of the British peoples.

Those of us reading this outside of Europe need to be paying attention. Ultimately the future of European Federation including the Euro are factors that should concern the world.- GNH


David Lott writes: 

At last we seem to be creeping ahead in the campaign to leave the EU. Two things have happened that have put the Remain camp on the defensive.


Firstly real policies are emerging for a post Brexit scenario. This has always been a difficulty for us Leavers to get across because we fight as representatives of the people but have little in the way of elected politicians and so have a manifesto that is not given the time of day by the media.


Depending on one's view, the sun is either rising or setting over the English Channel. This view from David's lush garden.

Thanks, however, to the deep divisions in the Conservative Party, a core of senior ministers in the Cameron Government have produced a post Brexit Manifesto, and it has solid credibility primarily as one of these Ministers will almost certainly become Prime Minister in the event of a Brexit vote.

At last we can put meat upon the Brexit bones in the fields of economics, trade and immigration, security and indeed sovereignty, all of which are at the centre of the debate. What is gratifying for me and my colleagues in the UK Independence Party, who have put much thought into this over the years, is that our solutions are being enthusiastically trumpeted by Ministers in Cameron’s cabinet that are campaigning to leave.

This change has started to shift the polls in our favour already.  As the public start to see our vision of freedom from the EU straight jacket, it becomes exciting and thrilling to contemplate. That our escape will spark a new dynamism I have no doubt and more citizens are beginning to see the picture.

The second major change is that talking about the question of security and immigration has become acceptable and the prohibition of moderate sensible views by the use of political correctness has disappeared.

We really do have genuine fears about the capacity of our health, education and housing capability, in the face of unlimited EU immigration, to cope. The safety of women in the nation when Europol tells us there are 5000 Jihadis already in Europe and still more and more coming as the EU’s, Angela Merkel inspired, open invitation to one and all pour in at the rate of thousands a day.

But Jihadis are not the only problem as we have a terrible record in the UK of the grooming of under-age girls by Pakistani immigrants on a truly industrial scale. Add to that, 30,000 cases of Female Genital Mutilation in London alone. 

On the continent Germany had the terrible abuse of women at the Cologne New Year celebrations, dreadful attacks and rape of boys and women in Austria and women even dyeing their hair to avoid molestation in Sweden.

Women are becoming fearful and this too has started to sink in as women put their families first throughout the land.


It is becoming tense as we approach the finishing line and the passion and conviction of those of us who wish to be free and independent, just as you in the US, drive us forward. It is very tight but we are starting to open up a lead. We can win and are beginning to really believe it! - David Lott, a citizen of the U.K. sojourning in France
