Brexit: The Shot Heard ‘Round The World!
Canada Free Press ^ | 06/24/16 | Dave Merrick

Now another shot heard 'round the world has been fired, this time by the British. Hopefully, America and others will get wise and follow her lead

“The party is over. Everybody out of the pool - at least for the moment.” Britain, by only a very small margin, elected to leave the European Union. This, most probably the Brit’s last stand for independence, is an object lesson that absolutely should not go unheeded by the United States that is aspiring, tooth and nail, to be the next Finland.

It was Finland’s former prime minister, Alexander Stubb, who last night tweeted that Great Britain’s leaving the European Union was the beginning of a ‘bad nightmare’. The Finns have to think like Finnish people because they are nothing like a world power, but one of many little nations who have chosen to lean on the might and subsidy of a union with other nations (that have similarly caved) in order to feel strong. What every member of the EU knows but does not easily admit, is that the cost of that union will eventuate in the relinquishment of the freedoms and individuality of each of its parts. The United Kingdom is gasping its last breath trying not to be absorbed into that totally compromised obscurity.

The denigration of the working middle class must cease. Trump is their only hope.

It is interesting that they should hold the referendum on the anniversary of the battle of Bannockburg, where Robert the Bruce drove the forces of King Edward II out of Stirling castle, and out of Scotland

The socialist leftist totalitarians have only themselves to blame for this.

An economic EU would be beneficial but the dictatorial left has to micro manage every aspect of people’s lives to achieve their socialist paradise.

Mostly they just make everyone miserable.

In simpler words Finland was planning to loot England and other nations of Europe.
