POTUS will visit London during a European visit to Germany this April (oh no, Ows thinks London is in Germany...). The EU is in meltdown, the immigration crisis is a growing serious threat and Obama will be visiting a 'Technology fair'? Really? Whatever. A source for The Independent , the newspaper that broke the story, has said "It would be pretty shocking if he didn't ask voters to stay in the EU" code for he will be telling the UK public to vote 'Remain'.
Lord Owen has said (Lord owen's response IN FULL is well worth a read). "As emotions mount in our referendum debate it would be better for the President to respect diplomatic courtesies and democratic conventions."...
..."It is not just the dysfunctional nature of the Eurozone that worries many of us in the UK. Many of us are lifetime Europeans and we are choosing to vote to leave so as to take the opportunity to counter balance the dysfunctional nature of the EU defence and foreign policies adopted since the creation of the Eurozone."
Owen suggests Obama should read Mervyn King's 'The End of Alchemy' who writes: "The crisis of European Monetary Union will drag on, and it cannot be resolved without confronting either the supranational ambitions of the European Union or the democratic nature of sovereign national governments. One or other will have to give way...".
