The St Trinian's motto was, "Get your blow in first." The British Government's EU Referendum "Stay in" campaign (a.k.a. Project Fear,) has certainly achieved that!

Clive Lavelle of the English Democrats has sent me the text of a letter he recently submitted to the Western Daily Press and Daily Express.  I am not sure if it was published but I reproduce it below.

 

The St Trinian's motto was, "Get your blow in first." The EU referendum  "Stay in" campaign (a.k.a. Project Fear,) backed by the government has certainly achieved that!

 

Project Fear works like this. First, trot out words like "Disaster", "Catastrophe" and "Devastating" as consequences of leaving the EU.

Then, invent scenarios that MAY be Disastrous, Catasprophic or Devastating but don't quantify them. Then, use nine MILLION pounds of taxpayers' money to propogate these notions.

So now, three million people MAY find themselves unemployed if we vote to leave. There MAY be ten years of "Uncertainty" (whatever that is,) if we vote to leave. It goes on.

 

But when the "Stay in" camp is state-sponsored, anyone can be recruited. So we have Bank of England, the American President, the IMF and most bizarre of all, the Catholic Church, all beating the pro-EU drum.

 

And still it goes on. The Chancellor of the Exchequer in separate speeches has claimed that prices and mortgage costs will both rise if we leave, and now, it's "We'll all be £4300 worse off" if we leave.

 

They make it up as they go along. The Disastrous, Catastrophic and Devastating scenarios get more outlandish and absurd with each speech. Hopefully, patriotic English voters will see through all this "Disaster" codswallop and vote on the one certainty.

 

Vote "No" and we control our own destiny, once more. We get our country back.
