WHILE the archaic establishment triumvirate of Compo, Foggy and the extremely useless Clegg attempt to dissuade our northern allies from putting a cross in the wrong box on what is arguably the most unnecessary referendum in British history, it is truly remarkable that the trio's reluctance to allow a democratic simple yes/no vote on our membership of the European Union continues.

Scotland is an unnecessary distraction that flatters to deceive – the EU conversely is full of brazen deceivers who crave absolute power.

Europe is where the yes/no vote is needed, not in 2017 but on the same date as the next General Election.
