Kaletsky writes: "Yes, Britain is bound to suffer in the long run from any version of Brexit." Really? Not one bit of analysis to lead to this statement, nor any attempt at supporting it afterward. Instead, we get a political rant that can be - and has been - found elsewhere. If "business confidence" were so important to the long-term outcome of Brexit, can anyone explain the comparative silence of the UK business community? Kaletsky either won't - or can't, so he avoids any attempt at analysis.



It seems that any attempt to alter the status quo is met with horror by the EU establishment and their mouthpieces. Yes, there will be disorder, but if UK business is worth anything alternative scenarios have been worked out over the past three years. Brexit will not be an "economic shock". As well, the role of the EU in playing "hardball' with both Cameron and May indicates an attitude of superiority that is both objectionable and a prime reason for leaving the entrenched bureaucracy that is the reality of the EU.



A majority of voters who bothered to vote want to take their country back. Let's see what they can do without subservience to the Franco-German Axis. Let them try to reconstitute the empire of Charlemagne. Who cares? When Putin roars, they will cry for UK - and US - support.
