Well good for you,John . Sitting on fences can be quite uncomfortable though.
Something about fence-sitters has always irritated ,nay sometimes infuriated me when it comes to important voting decisions like general elections and referendums(referenda?).In this country if it wasn't for the 'fence-sitters' ,and abstainers, we might have had ,then and now,a government that we should have had instead of the horrors we often have.Those same fence-sitters and abstainers are usually the first ones to complain after the result about the new government or decision they haven't even bothered voting for !
I respect everyone's opinion John. Personally,I am just glad that Great Britain has decided to go for Brexit.Sitting on the fence means doing just that-absolutely nothing. That to me is just as bad as voting to not Leave .
I wasn't one of those who were swayed by any particular argument of any party.I just knew ,as someone who I think to be of a reasonably normal sound intelligent mind and having lived 62 years , 43 years of them as part of the EEC/EU ,that I have always felt that we as a nation,and all the others,were being dictated to,controlled,abused and yes,cheated by a growing monster of a bureaucracy.That is surely unnatural . I voted for change.This country is strong enough to survive come what may.
