Has anyone from brexit said they voted against globalisation ??
has anyone on british tv mentioned a rejection of globalisation - I must have missed it -- why is this "protective" word not being used ?
if you say that you are against globalisation the phrase has an air of respectability compared to " I don't want foreigners taking our jobs etc"
from sunday's paper
https://www.theguardian.com/business/2016/jun/26/brexit-is-the-rejection-of-globalisation
i'm highlighting nothing read it for yourself
now on Bloomberg today
http://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2016-06-28/draghi-wishes-for-a-new-world-order-populists-will-love-to-hate
so America (bloomberg) also says "the uk's june 23rd decision to quit the European union a powerful rejection by voters of globalisation ... "
and we see mention of this new world order ... where in the long term inter alia zero hours contracts will be the norm for the have nots
so let's keep this protective shell WHICH HAS A TEFLON COATING around the britex result so phrases like racist or any other variation don't stick
now we have this from the telegraph from 2008
"While critics warn of rising inequality, the true story globally is one of a massive rise of the "middle class" and a corresponding major decline of poverty. All of this has to be great for Britain."
errrrrrrrr what went wrong ???

It's fear of the unknown. We have been involved with the eu for a long time, many will have never known the time before. It's bound to be worrying to a businessman say, who has the chance of losing major a contract.
He can't see the future, like none of us can, but in the future he might get two or three of those contracts, on three times the amount coming in from the one.
We as a country can only get stronger by trading across the world, it's not about restricting things, it's opening them out. There is a massive world, far bigger than the collective of europe, who we can also still trade with.
Our country can learn a lot from all the countries, and now there will be a bigger choice, they will also learn from how we do things. It is a fantastic opportunity for this country to grow beyond it's wildest dreams. We can be much more than just a small european country.

It's just as stupid as idiots saying things are 'officially' an 'own goal', isn't it?
Or saying that you found something in the Sunday edition of The Guardian....

Now that is simply beautiful!
That's twice in the space of 5 minutes Glyn that you have lit up my day :)

sadly your recent comments have suffered a quantum drop in content coming over as a""bored " vsc member rather than those of a vsc "board member"
any keen observer will know I post facts so sumday read the content of the header again if they don't want to have an observer website it's up to them
very strange today gordon brun of all people mentioned the vote against globalisation by the uk - IT IS VERY WORRYING IF HE IS READING THIS THREAD - a man who didn't even understand the role of gold in an economy
behave yourself Wrigley and wake up and smell the coffee with a "full english breakfast" not with croissants - the world has changed
On the subject of Bloomberg no it isn't a café in Golders Green -- slightly more important in the financial world
it's interesting BST well known for not letting dust settle on his keyboard is silent
in the alternative I look forward to his posts
have a nice day what is rest of it

I think the adjective you were looking for is "bewildered" rather than "silent".

sorry I am so used to using "silent" in conjunction with the phrase "in the alternative"
