I've become very despondent about the potential outcome of this referendum. We seem to be rushing headlong into a really rather unpleasant future - not so much from an economic point of view (although I think it will, for most people, see a significant downturn in their quality of life) but more about Britain's place in the world and the future for all of Europe.

If the EU collapses as a result of our withdrawal, will it destabilise Europe to the point where Putin feels confident enough to re-establish Russian hegemony in eastern Europe?
Given that Trump and Putin seems to rather like each other, I can't see a Trump presidency rushing to get involved if Putin does do something.

If Scotland votes remain, will we see a renewed impulse for independence? With a hard border in Ireland, will nationalist separatism there flare up into civil war again?

I've said it before and I'll say it again - there's an awful lot wrong with the EU, but it's fixable, and Britain should do the right thing and stand alongside our neighbours.
