“Gold rose as political turmoil following Brexit supported prices after activity in China pushed them back towards last week’s high.”

A dissent on multiculturalism

“Economics professor Walter Williams begs to differ on creating a multicultural society.”
“German Chancellor Angela Merkel declared that multiculturalism has “utterly failed,” adding that it was an illusion to think Germans and foreign workers could “live happily side by side.” The failure of multiculturalism is also seen in Denmark, Sweden, the United Kingdom, France, Belgium and other European countries. Immigrants coming from Africa and the Middle East refuse to assimilate and instead seek to import the failed cultures they fled.”

“Liberals talk about how much they value the voice of the people, but they don’t actually care about it unless the majority happens to agree with them.”

Hillary Clinton Really Has Not Understood the Brexit Vote

Hillary is supposed to be one of the smartest women in the US and on the planet. More evidence she is clueless.
“As one who campaigned for a number of years for yesterday’s Brexit vote, that Britain should leave the European Union, of course I am not unbiased upon this subject. However, that also does mean that I’m aware, well informed even, on what actually happened here. And as such I can […]”

Brexit Wins. Trump the biggest beneficiary? Era of big government over?
24
Jun
Did the Leave vote signal a Trump victory in November? I think so. Is national sovereignty the new global wave? Absolutely.
After the experience of the EU, people want to govern themselves and not be dictated to by a supranational agency. The Trump phenomenon is our country’s “revolt” against the federal Leviathan.
In his 1996 State of the Union speech Bill Clinton famously said, “The era of big government is over.” (With the caveat that citizens should not fend for themselves. In other words, Bill wanted to have an efficient welfare state.) Republican members of Congress stood up in unison and applauded wildly. Democrats sat on their hands. Bill was 20 years early. We shall see.
The results are in. The good guys won.

Decentralization and devolution of state power is always a good thing, regardless of the motivations behind such movements.

It’s not rocket science. The public do not want faceless bureaucrats controlling them. Let’s see how Brits vote on Thursday.
Just as Americans wouldn’t want U.S. tax, immigration, and regulatory policy to be controlled by an imaginary American Union office based in Buenos Aires, many British don’t like their country being controlled by European Union bureaucrats in Brussels.
