A referendum? If this goes ahead, it will be a declaration of war.

My personal preference is to put some distance between us and both the US and EU and rejoin with our Commonwealth nations.. which contain some of the poorest nations in the world.. helping them attain a better standard of living create jobs while giving this nation back some self respect
I agree, or maybe an "anglosphere" cultural alliance with the US, Canada, Australia and New Zealand.
I feel we have more in common than with the French and Germans.
(No offence French and German people)

If you dont mind answering my questions please.
See the thing is mate, they could be sitting on the moon or just down the road, for all it matters not. These people in power, regardless of where they are from, be it Britain or otherwise, do not care about you or your nationalism.
And 1500 years of tradition?, lol what?, tradition of what?, being a population of serfs for land barons and tyrant kings and queens?, lol.

Threatening to murder people because they do not share the same feelings of ultra nationalism as yourself comes across as just a bit unstable to be honest.
You traitor, you should be hanged
On 20 May 1998 the House of Commons voted to ratify the 6th Protocol of the European Convention on Human Rights prohibiting capital punishment except "in time of war or imminent threat of war." The last remaining provisions for the death penalty under military jurisdiction (including in wartime) were removed when section 21(5) of the Human Rights Act 1998 came into force on 9 November 1998. On 10 October 2003, effective from 1 February 2004,[20] the UK acceded to the 13th Protocol, which prohibits the death penalty under all circumstances,[21] so that the UK may no longer legislate to restore the death penalty while it is subject to the Convention. It can only now restore it if it withdraws from the Council of Europe.

And its moronic sentiments about "the war" that hold nations back from realising true global potentials from shared sovereignty. Its alright you know, "The Hun" as you may like to call them are not on our shores, despite what you may have learned from Dads Army

Not in the UK It does not. That was banned years ago by the Labour Government.in 1988. So no treason does not lead to the death penalty anymore in the UK.
