Hi,
November 2, 2017
Sir,
Bill Emmott (Letters, October 31) is right to say that the Financial Times should have a point of view. It is one reason I have read the paper for 40 years. The FT has one other function Mr Emmott doesn’t mention, and that is to provide accurate intelligence of what is actually happening even if the news is in contradiction to its point of view.
In this respect, the FT has had a failure on the scale of the west’s failure to foresee the fall of the Shah of Iran in 1979.
The business community woke on June 24 last year to discover Britain had voted to leave the EU. They would have known the FT didn’t want this outcome, but could they have gleaned from the prior coverage in the FT that the risk of a rejection vote was so high? I doubt it, and that must be counted a failure.
Time after time FT staff underplayed the risk and too readily assumed the referendum would be a repeat of the 1975 referendum.
Early in 2013, more than three years before the referendum, you published my letter contradicting one such article by Gideon Rachman. I warned the UK was heading for a weak No or a weak Yes.
I can’t be the only referendum expert who saw this coming, so why didn’t one of the world’s leading business papers?
The FT failed to push for EU reform which might have made a difference, then misread the risk in the referendum.
A point of view isn’t enough.

With an avg. 1.2M voters per MEP & Britain with 16% of EU GDP and 13% of the EU’s population yet having only 8% (if united) say whilst holding less than 3% of the various offices within the EU Do note The EUropean Parliament has no ability to make policy and has a Commission of unelected bureaucrats, thus clearly the EU is not even a pretence of being a democracy!Do note that many senior apparatchicks and even elected politicians speak openly of the ‘Post Democratic era’ with no sense of shame or irony and in complete contempt of the so called electorate – yet The EU & many of its vassal States/Regions are all too willing to slaughter people in Sovereign States, to impose The EU’s chosen brand of democracy on them!Now as President Junker announced in his ‘State of the union’ speech 2017 the aim is to create an EU military force and centralise ever more of the decision making and control!The imposition of a Government and policies upon its vassal regions such as the peoples of Greece shows just how far from being a democracy the EU is.
There will be little or no change in Britain’s economic position, when we leave the EU, using a better negotiated, customised & updated version of the ‘Norway Model’ as a stepping stone to becoming a full member of the Eropean Economic Area, where all will benefit, as we secure trade relations with the EU’s vassal regions, with an EFTA style status and can trade and negotiate independently on the global stage, as members of The Commonwealth and the Anglosphere.
Do not overlook the fact that politicians have plotted and schemmed since the 1950s and we have actually been vassals of the EU, when it was still using the aesopian linguistics and calling itself The Common Market in the early 1970s, a name the bureaucrats arbitrarily changed to EUropean Union in the early 1990s as they worked towards their long term goals of an ever closer centrally controlled Political and economic Union with its own anthem, currency, flag and rigid central control by its self appointed bureacrats towards a new Empirate –
It will take many years to rectify the mess our political class got us into and we have no other peacefull means by which to extricate ourselves than to depend on that self same self styled elite, who all too often forget they work for us!
One huge benefit of BreXit will be that we can negotiate with bodies like the WTO, UN, WHO, IMF, CODEX and the like, directly, in our own interest and that of our partners around the world, in both the Commonwealth and the Anglosphere at large; rather than having negotiations and terms imposed by unelected EU bureacrats and their interpretation of the rules handed down, as if they were some great achievement of the EU’s!The greatest change and benefit will be political, as we improve our democracy and self determination, with the ability to deselect and elect our own Government, with an improved Westminster structure, see >Harrogate Agenda<.How we go about the process of disentangling our future wellbeing from the EU is laid out in extensive, well researched and immensely tedious detail see >FleXcit< or for a brief video summary CLICK HERE
