Brexit - To Remain or Not to Remain

Brexit – To Remain or Not to Remain.

 

To remain or not to remain, that was the question. Whether it would be better for the UK and its people to continue the indignity of being a subordinate member of a mostly Franco-German controlled EU run by unelected bureaucrats based in Brussels or to take the decision to leave and once again play a role on the worldwide stage as an independent self governing country, before it was too late.

 

In the People’s Vote, which was a Referendum held on 26^th.June 2016, which we were promised would be a once only vote, free from political influence, the outcome of which would be honoured and acted upon, and which no person, group of persons, Government, organisation or MPs could change, only 35 percent of the population voted to remain. ( Brexit -The Real Majority )

 

The REMAIN campaigners, who seem to be concentrated in the M25 bubble, and who appear to have personal interests in continued membership of the EU and believe that they alone know better what is best for the UK and its people, drastically underestimated the feeling in the rest of the UK.

 

The 65 percent of the population, who support LEAVE, include the silent majority who finally had a chance to have a say in their future, not constantly being told what they can and cannot do. They were not idiotic, moronic, misinformed and too stupid to understand as claimed by Remainers, but mostly well informed patriotic citizens, who do not like being bullied or talked down to, but based their decisions on over 40 years of membership and how it has affected and shaped their lives and communities and what sort of future they see and would like for themselves and their families.

 

We voted to Leave the EU and the question had nothing to do with how. We didn’t vote to leave the EU if Brussels would allow us to, we didn’t vote to leave but still be controlled by Brussels, therefore the only question that should act as an attention grabber is, when we leave, do the 27 other countries want to continue to supply us with the  £20.8 billion worth of goods and services each month, £7 billion over and above what we supply to them, or not? If so then they are running out of time to come up with an offer acceptable to us before we have to seriously start looking at alternatives.

 

It is time that all politicians started to put the UK FIRST.

Brexit - The People have Spoken.

Brexit - The People have Spoken.

 

The people have spoken and the Government claims to have heard them. The main problem is that being heard is one thing but being listened to is something entirely different. I would have thought that Theresa May, the Prime Minister, would have received the message from her snap general election, that the ordinary people were not happy with the fact that she did not appear to be listening to their concerns.

 

The referendum, on the 26^th. June 2016, was a People’s Vote, where ordinary people had an opportunity to have a say in what was being done in their name. It was non political and the result would be final and acted upon. Out of the 46,501,241 people eligible to vote only 16,141,241 voted to Remain in the EU, that is only 34.7 percent of the electorate. Even in Scotland, where Nicola Sturgen claimed an outright majority, the 1,661,191 who voted Remain only represent 41.7 percent of the electorate. All that Remainers had to do was to get more than 50 percent of the electorate to vote NO and Brexit would have been dead and the last two years would have been entirely different, but they didn’t, and they couldn’t even win the vote on the day.

 

All MPs should be BREXITEERS as virtually NONE of them has the support of the majority of their constituents to support a Remain Agenda. Theresa May, MP for Maidenhead, current Prime Minister, had 44,086 votes Remain which was 53.9 percent on the day but only 43 percent of the constituents. Philip Hammond, MP for Runnymede and Weybridge, current Chancellor, had 20,259 vote Remain which was 45 7 percent on the day and 34.8 percent of the constituents. In his acceptance speech on Election Day he said “I will do my best to represent the interests of my constituents”, or the minority who support his personal agenda.  Anna Soubry, MP for Broxtowe, had 29,672 vote Remain which was 45.5 percent on the day but only 35.5 percent of the constituents, She couldn’t even convince her own constituents to support her point of view and apparently a number are so unhappy that she is not representing them or their views that they are trying to get her deselected.

 

The MPs who campaigned for, and voted for, Remain now have an obligation and responsibility to support the UK as it leaves the EU. Of course we welcome them using their knowledge and experience to ask questions and encourage debate to ensure that we leave with the best of terms, but at the end of the day they have no authority to try to reverse or block the outcome.

 

The question isn’t if we leave but how, and the best way to do it putting the interests of the UK and its people FIRST.

BREXIT –  We voted to LEAVE with  “NO DEAL”

 

At the referendum held on the 26^th. June 2016, the people were offered 2 options, to Remain or to Leave the European Union. While there were campaign groups trying to put forward their visions of what the United Kingdom would be like either way the vote was a straight forward Remain or Leave. The people who voted LEAVE, include the silent majority who finally had a chance to have a say in their future, not constantly being told what they can and cannot do. They were not idiotic, moronic, misinformed and too stupid to understand as claimed by Remainers, but mostly well informed patriotic citizens, who do not like being bullied or talked down to, but based their decisions on over 40 years of membership and how it has affected and shaped their lives and communities and what sort of future they see and would like for themselves and their families. They voted to LEAVE.

 

They didn’t vote to leave the EU if Brussels would allow us to, they didn’t vote to leave but still be controlled by Brussels, therefore the only question that should act as an attention grabber is, when we leave, do the 27 other countries want to continue to  deal with us and supply us with the  £20.8 billion worth of goods and services each month, £7 billion over and above what we supply to them, or not? If so then they are running out of time to come up with an offer “acceptable to us” before we have to seriously start looking at alternatives

 

There was never going to be a chance of us negotiating a meaningful agreement with the EU. They have too much to lose if they are seen to be giving the UK any form of favourable term as it might encourage other members to decide that they want to leave. The main problem is that Michel Barnier, the EU’s main negotiator, was given the outcome of the negotiations and told to fill in the gaps to justify it.

 

The Government was entrusted with the responsibility of carrying out the wish of the people and to get a clean break from the EU. There was no reference to having a deal that would benefit Big Business, Big Banks and Financial Institutions, the Rich and Powerful, those who make a profit directly from our membership and pressure groups who act through Lobbyists. We voted to Leave the EU and we want our Sovereignty, an end to free movement and full control of our borders, our Fishing Rights, our right to Trade with who we choose, our right to our own Laws, control of our money and most importantly our Independence with no strings attached.

 

The last gravy train leaves the UK on the 29^th. March 2019, and all those who think that they would prefer to live in a country under EU Rule, The Remain Fanatics, had better be on it because after that time people who continue to promote Remain will be treated like “smoking in public places”, “drink drivers” and others who persist in “antisocial behaviour”.

Brexit - Possibly worse than Greece was.

Brexit –  Possibly worse than Greece was.

 

It is my opinion, for what that is worth in our vast array of so called experts, that if the UK remains involved with the EU that we could end up “worse than Greece was” and while the Greek people suffered harsh austerity the EU Bureaucrats  did nothing to help them, they just sat back an watched.

 

With a National Debt of £1.8 trillion, nearly as big as our annual GDP figure, and growing by the minute, which currently costs the UK £48 billion pre year in interest cost, 28 percent of which goes abroad to foreign investors, a trade deficit of £7 billion per month with the EU and the Government budget being in deficit and needing to be supported by further borrowing it would only be a matter of time before the UK exhausted its credibility and needed a BAIL-OUT from the EU. At that moment the UK would be finished on the world stage with no individual identity and absorbed as just a state of the EU. Any experience of austerity so far would be nothing compared to what would be imposed if the EU was given the total control of our affairs and the Euro was forced upon us.

 

The only thing that Germany has ever wanted is a United States of Europe with them at its head, and the only people that keep getting in the way of them achieving that are the British. Angler Merkel has come a lot closer to achieving that aim than Hitler did and by using a far more subtle approach, but imagine their approach if they were given the chance of dominating the UK.

 

There was never going to be a chance of us negotiating a meaningful agreement with the EU. They have too much to lose if they are seen to be giving the UK any form of favourable term as it might encourage other members to decide that they want to leave. The main problem is that Michel Barnier, the EU’s main negotiator, was given the outcome of the negotiations and told to fill in the gaps to justify it.

 

Mrs. May, who is under direct pressure from Big Business, Big Banks and Financial Institutions, the Rich and Powerful, Bureaucrats, Remain Fanatics and pressure groups through Lobbyists has lost her direction and appears to be following a REMAIN Biased Agenda. It is time for her to be aware of the long term affects of her actions and forget about the so called “friends and partners” who are actually bullies, and be seen to be putting the interests of the UK and its people FIRST.

Brexit – Independence with No EU strings.

Who asked Mrs. May to negotiate a deal on our behalf with the EU. When she was elected to be the Prime Minister it was to replace David Cameron who had failed to negotiate acceptable terms for the UK and had failed to convince the UK that his vision of continued membership of the EU was the right thing for the UK. Mrs. May stood for election to the position knowing that the instruction from the people who she was going to represent was to LEAVE the EU. The Government was entrusted with the responsibility of carrying out the wish of the people and to get a CLEAN BREAK from the EU with NO STRINGS ATTACHED.

The electorate were encouraged by her patriotic approach shown in the Lancaster House speech but it now appears that she has been under direct pressure from Big Business, Big Banks and Financial Institutions, the Rich and Powerful, Bureaucrats, Remain Fanatics and pressure groups through Lobbyists has lost her direction and appears to be following a REMAIN Biased Agenda which is against the wishes of the Ordinary People. It is time for her to be aware of the long term affects of her actions and forget about the so called “friends and partners” who are actually bullies and competitors, and be seen to be putting the interests of the UK and its people FIRST.

We are not leaving Europe, we are leaving the European Union. If it hadn’t been for the UK and its friends  from around the world there wouldn’t be a FREE EUROPE. Too many people spilt their blood and lost their lives to release countries from being controlled and run by Germany for us to turn our back on it.

At the referendum, which was a true Peoples Vote, held on the 26^th. June 2016, the people were offered 2 options, to Remain or to Leave the European Union.
