ARE the remainiacs panicking?

Judging by the outlandish scare tactics of the elite political class and some Dorset Echo letters it would seem so.

Trade and jobs would go they cry but the opposite is true.

As I know from my own business trade is all about quality of service/product at a fair price, in addition the EU sells more to us than we sell to them, it’s silly to say that they wouldn’t trade with us just because we want out of political union.

We would also be free to trade with the rest of the world out of EU restrictions.

As for security it seems fairly obvious that if you control your own borders you’re safer than if you don’t, if we were also out of the ECHR we wouldn’t have to keep foreign criminals here on benefits either.

How can an open door be better than a door only open to immigrants who are an asset (visas).

What about our image to the world.

The spectacle of David Cameron going round Europe with a begging bowl asking what sovereignty we can keep was a national embarrassment.

If we vote remain our sovereignty will be eroded even more as the EU elites steam forward to a full European superstate.

We will be fully governed by unelected foreigners (half way there already).

The alternative is a national democracy which could be greatly improved by PR and the abolition of the House of Lords.

No system is perfect but would you prefer your own country run by people you elect or do you trust unelected foreigners to do a better job (especially a mad German woman who is flooding the continent with Muslims)?

Surely that is a leap in the dark.
