Today is a momentous one. It's one where we either decide to be in control of our own destiny, or we hand it over to a bunch of old men in Brussels, who are unaccountable and unelected. They do not have our best interests at heart; they just want our money. That's money that you and I have worked hard to earn, which is being lavished on a bureaucracy that has plans to expand into every walk of our lives. Yesterday, Markus Kerber, the head of the BDI, the German CBI, said that trade with the UK would continue following Brexit. He went on to say that imposing tariffs, that David Cameron has repeatedly warned about, would be a "very, very foolish thing in the 21st century." The BDI would encourage politicians on both sides to come up with terms that allowed both countries to continue to trade with each other. Of course they would. Only a spiteful idiot would purposely destroy jobs in both the UK and Germany by intervening with punitive tariffs. This is precisely the point I put to George Osborne two weeks ago at PMQs when he stood in for Mr Cameron. He concurred with my thinking. Again, of course he would. The Remain arguments have adopted a scorched earth policy, with both Mr Cameron and Mr Osborne intentionally talking down our great country, economy, colleagues and anyone daft enough, in their view, to dare to want to take back control. They have made some unholy alliances, whose political aims are very different to even Mr Cameron's, although sometimes I wonder. Today is a day for optimism and hope and hopefully tomorrow we can throw both on to our backs and take this country forward, free from the EU ropes that bind us. Our democracy, for which millions have fought and many have died, is the rock on whiich this island nation of our is built and will prosper. The EU is dying on its feet, a corrupt and corrosive organisation run for the benefit of a few. The clamour from the French, German, Italians and Greeks to have their own referendum grows. If we leave tomorrow, I believe the EU will collapse within a few years. Then, we can all sit down and reflect on this disastrous attempt to create uniformity across 28 nation states and start again. Trade with Europe, of course, but we must respect each other's history, economy, culture, language and democracy. That is the way forward, of that I have no doubt. Unlike Mr Cameron and others, I am one hundred per cent certain that our country will prosper outside the EU and the sooner we get cracking the better. Vote LEAVE today.
