Any major changes since 2006/7? I think not. My main reason is more personal ... Remoaners and Rejoiners tend in the main to be as morally bereft, bankrupt, as the Demrats across the pond. A perfect recent example is the Harman Uniparty's decision to "do a Donald" on Boris.
I'm not defending Boris who jumped before he was pushed, certainly not defending him for WA3 after Pigboy Dave and May Not extended the middle finger to the British public ... yet it was the unprincipled manner by which it was done which galls ... just what sort of a scumbag is Heseltine for example? And who was the Chief Whip at the time, out of curiosity?
And digressing a bit ... am I imagining it or has Mr. Fawkes-Staines surrounded his visage in the avatar with rainbow shite?
I stopped following the Guido Fawkes blog many years ago when I was banned from commenting, for having the audacity to have a differing opinion; I can't even remember what I said that he objected to, and despite asking him, I was never given an explanation.
ReplyDeleteIs Mr Staines part of the 'establishment' news machine?
We'd rejoin the EU to get seamless mobile phone roaming and to be able to walk down the EU isle at airports. That's basically what it boils down to: what's important to millennials.
ReplyDeleteAll I've seen after Brexit is how outright exclusionary and protectionist the EU is. Customs clearance takes around 14 days for goods into the EU. Whether that's a standard thing or just EU customs trying to teach us a lesson I'm not sure. Yes, it's a cosy club for those that benefit, but is it really worth the loss of freedom and democratic responsibility? Sadly the upcoming generation do not value freedom as much as the generation that nearly lost it and the generation like me that came directly after and heard first hand what it cost to fight tyranny.
I still think it is 'cute' that (especially after, the shock to them of, Brexit) 'we' will be 'allowed' to decide anything.
ReplyDeleteThe only reason the Remoaners want to rejoin is ... for the back-handers they were all being given when in, and the 'promised' well-remunerated sinecures and generous pensions (all paid for by ... us) post retirement from their roles selling out Britain and the British.
Ask any of them, and they all cheerfully admit, after a few minutes of imaginary claims, that the real reason is 'their' monetary benefits.
Surprisingly I suspect the Eu (and France) 'would' gladly allow a re-joining, because they (especially the French) fully realise that without all that extra cash they miked from Britain, the ponzi scheme of all those 'social supports' (paying German manufacturers and French farmers a bonus for being 'special') 'will' bankrupt them in short order. The EU isn't so much 'just' in a recession, as it's suffering from ... having to pay its own bills for the first time (Socialism, you eventually run out of other peoples money, or as here, they take their money and run).
