The Greek referendum is...Should be fairly obvious.<br /><br />The Greek referendum is about doing something the EU doesn't like. <br /><br />The British referendum is a PR exercise by a clever bunch of marketing people to try and silence UKIP in they way that they cleverly silenced the Scots.<br /><br />The Greek referendum is being held by a hostile government with a different vision of Europe. The British by members of the EU ruling class.<br /><br />What's sad is that it will work. The rich and the shrinking number of middle class hangers on will use their wealth to make it work - using standard PR and marketing techniques. <br /><br />NeilWhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11565959939525324309noreply@blogger.com
