Exposing a raw nerve

The political turmoil in early May 2016 has been caused by two politicians and the attempt to separate anti-Zionism and anti Semites is the tip of an iceberg. Respect for other creeds and race does not belong in the 21st Century and a senior politician (Mr Ken Livingstone) should know better.

Since I migrated (aged 16) from the Netherlands to Great  Britain in 1971, I have learned a great deal about the British way of life and the progress this country has made as a full member of what is now commonly known as the European Union.

BRExit merely scratches the surface of a much older problem and I am sincerely concerned that the "Vote Leave" managers are failing to be honest. The "StrongerIn" campaign is also poorly managed, because Britain's political parties are creating a sub culture of confusion AND mixed signals.
