Well, I'm convinced. Thank you. But I have a couple of follow-on questions, and I'd love to know your thoughts:
Firstly - these 10 million seeking asylum or in refugee camps - where? How would they get there? Because my impression, for instance by following Medecins Sans Frontieres on twitter, is that the EU has for some years now been deliberately murdering people on a wide scale rather than let them seek asylum or reach a refugee camp.
Secondly - the virtual halt of all trade into and out of the UK, and the death of the UK finance industry and the City of London - this is going to have a pretty bad effect on the entire world finance industry, isn't it? World financial collapse?
(Edit) More thoughts. The UK's semi-democracy couldn't survive a disaster like this - presumably if any sort of functioning polity remained, it would be some sort of totalitarian dictatorship? Or perhaps several competing ones: civil war, anyone?
