Eluchie,
Article 20 Universal
Declaration of Human Rights:
1. Everyone
has the right to freedom of peaceful assembly and association.
2. No one may
be compelled to belong to an association.
As the people of the
United kingdom go to the polls on June 23rd 2016, to choose whether
they want to continue with their membership of the European Union or not, what
they require from the rest of the world (those who may be interested in the
outcome of what is clearly a sole choice of the British people), is goodwill messages
expressing to, where and when possible, support whatsoever decisions they
arrive at, respect their right to choose and non-interference in the processes
leading to that choice.
Scaremongering, veiled
threats, dooms-day scenario painted or voiced by foreign ‘experts’ desirous of
one outcome of the referendum or the other is disrespectful of the British as
it tends to portray them as a people who do not know what is best for
themselves, amounts to unnecessary interference in the affairs of a sovereign
people, undemocratic as those who are not directly impacted by the outcomes
seem intent on influencing the process, and simply distasteful.
Quite a lot of people
across Sub-Sahara Africa are anxious for an opportunity to decide for themselves
whether to continue with the contraptions into which they were entrapped by
pre-colonial draconian agreements and would give an-arm-and-a-leg for the privilege
the British will be enjoying come the 23rd June.
So, to the British: go and
decide for yourselves.
