Of course I have read it. It is not my problem if others do not do so but, even if they do, they will see that he actually says "The overwhelming opportunity for Brexit is over the next 50 years.” Which is political speak for "I don't have a clue what is going to happen but if we wait for 50 years we may or may not see some improvement."

It is, Nigel, as you are wont to say, speculation. He is saying that his support for the leave campaign is based on speculation and optimism that something good will come out of it. Eventually. He is gambling with the country's future and backing the outcome that, according to the overwhelming body of research, is least likely to succeed.

Once again, the outcome is something I do sincerely hope I am wrong about!
