No matter what your opinion, it is important that you vote in the 2019 EU elections for the UK. Many young people believe that it is not worth voting or couldn't care less. You will be voting for your future. It is ironic that older people take the time to vote. I shall be voting I am 68 years of age. I shall be dead before the full effects of Brexit will be felt.There are many things to consider and probably the top most priority is climate change. And following that it is pollution. Do you want to live in a world that can sustain itself? Europe has woken up and is now leading the way politically if not in terms of action. Devising policies for climate change and pollution needs co-operation in Europe and Britain should be part of this. This is good reason enough for remaining as part of the EU.
Do you want the NHS to be privatised? Do you want to eat chlorine washed chicken? Do you want free and easy capitalism designed just for the rich but not for you? Do you want reciprocal measures taken against you to prevent your free movement to work and love in Europe? Do you want the UK government to make it very difficult for you to live in the UK with a foreign partner?
The EU guarantees that you can live in the UK with a foreign partner or spouse without restriction. Do not let prejudice prevent you from having this most basic of human rights.
If you want your life restricted then you know who to vote for. If you want freedom and some sort of chance of a sustainable life then you know who not to vote for to vote for - it is your choice.
The Brexit supporters say as a matter of principle that they do not want to live in a country which is dictated to by un-elected leaders. Well ask them, who elected the head of the World Trade Organisation and who elected the head of Nato? These are two organisations with which we share our sovereignty and to our advantage. We either indirectly or directly vote for the leadership of the EU we have a much greater say in what policies the EU follow.
Who elected our Head of State? No-one, so are Brexiters republicans as a matter of principle? Ask them what are their principles? They have no answers about sovereignty, climate change, pollution and your freedom to chose where you live and with whom.
The EU elections are not another referendum but they are your opportunity to make your views felt. Young people go out and vote for your future .
