EU Referendum debate. Do we have a strong economy or one propped up by the French and Germans? Clive Lavelle of the English Democrats gives an opinion.

David Cameron and George Osborne appear to be suggesting that the British economy will collapse if it does not have the support of the European Union. Does that mean the economy is not as strong as they would have us believe?  Clive Lavelle of the English Democrats gives his verdict in this letter he submitted to the Western Daily Press on June 4th.  I am not sure if it has been published but here is the text Clive sent me.

"Britain Stronger in Europe" a.k.a. Project Fear has continually trumpeted messages of "Disaster" and "Catastrophe" since well before the Referendum campaign officially started.
 

This kind of talk can reasonably be interpreted as an admission that our economy is so fragile that it could not survive without being propped up by the French and Germans. But that flies in the face of claims by David (Dave) Cameron and his fellow Project Fear mouthpiece George Osborne that their Conservative government has worked wonders to create a strong economy.
 

Economic "Disaster" and "Catastrophe" are generally predicted by a slump in the Stock Market. The FTSE is currently hovering around the 6100 mark. Any sniff of "Catastrophe" would have sent it toward the basement by now.
