Well I've spent half the afternoon going through twitter hashtags correlating public opinion. And I kept seeing a term I was unfamiliar with. Cis. Had to google it. People really bother with this rubbish?

Franky 25 years ago we lost. We went away, looked at why we lost and have put in place measures to avoid a repeat. The economy is better. We learned from America. The military is better. And the west is afraid and is trying to encircle again.

I said a couple of days ago that's why she wasn't charged with anything. Once charged she could be pardoned.

The stock market is just another form of gambling. If you can rig or throw a horse race or boxing match then you can throw or rig the price of shares or a currency or commodity. Like le Chiffs plan in Casino Royale. Speculators basically place bets that the market will act one way then use events to push prices in the way they want and make money through their bets. That's the simple explanation.

I'm all for free trade and freedom of movement for the easier transference of people with valuable skills or people wanting a better life if they are prepared to work for it.
However as you say the issue is one of assimilation. Go to parts of London, Paris, Berlin, Amsterdam etc and see how well that is going.
There is a perception that too many want to come to Europe for a free ride which is causing a backlash and will make it harder for those who do wish to contribute.

What we are seeing is a reaction of ordinary people against an out of touch political elite too concerned with pushing their agenda and unconcerned about the impact it causes.
Now, the same as after the brexit result, we see the same people smearing a chunk of the electorate as racist xenophobic uneducated plebs.
