The Alchemist goes to vote
Well, it is voting time. Today is D-Day, the day when Great Britain will decide its destiny with remaining or exiting the European Union. The love-hate-in-out relationship has been a longstanding debate coming to its natural conclusion. A referendum for British citizens to decide one way or another finally. I will not try to persuade anyone how to vote. My belief is personal freedom of choice. I understand that I might wake up tomorrow morning and not like the result, but that is a democracy, the majority of people are eligible to vote to decide. I would mind though if the majority of only the people that bothered to turn up made such an important decision. We sometimes forget how important voting is and how many struggles people have gone through for centuries. And in some countries still do now, for this basic fundamental right. The universal vote has not been in place that long in the UK.
