Happy Independence Day 2018: Now to Make Brexit Happen
Today is the Second Anniversary of the historic vote by the British People to reclaim our sovereignty and get out of the capitalist empire, the EU. By rights, had the result been honoured, rather than the pathetic triggering of Article 50, and the 'negotiation' of our relationship with the tyranny of Brussels, today would be the day for us to celebrate two years of freedom. The EUrophile traitors in Westminster are doing all they can to thwart the democratic will of the people. The paid lackeys of George Soros are attacking people for wanting to be free. The Media ignores us, or if it does refer to the 17.4 million people who voted for freedom, it calls us thick, bigoted, xenophobic and all other manner of insults - insults which if aimed at anyone other than the British Working Class, would result in police attention.
Today, the People marched again to demand that the government shred the Article 50 trap, repeal the European Communities Act (1972), and get us out of the EU immediately. The march was - of course - ignored by the media, although amusingly the BBC briefly covered it by accident. Video footage of some of the pro-Brexit demonstrations:
An interesting article on the machinations of the enemies of democracy who are struggling to keep us trapped in the EU, can be found at https://theblueanchor.wordpress.com, alongside other articles which are worth reading. The article 'How to Spot the Democracy Haters', by Sebastian Handley, is reproduced below:
As I’ve written before, EU supporters are engaged in total war against democracy. Their dream is to dismantle British democracy before the eyes of the world and reduce us to a society where no meaningful votes are ever held; where voting only exists to confirm decisions already made by a ruling elite, and where the biggest vote in our history is indefinitely disregarded.
Because they don’t have the courage or integrity to come right out and admit this, they endlessly devise ways of attacking democracy by stealth, with dog-whistle phrases like ‘populism‘. This essay is about how they seek to destroy democracy whilst pretending to be simply concerned with mundane trade technicalities.
After they lost the referendum EU supporters sought to keep us in the Single Market. When it was gently pointed out that would mean us not democratically governing ourselves they called for us to instead remain in the EEA but that was open to the same objection; so then it was The Customs Union, then a customs union, then ‘a customs partnership‘ and so on. They continually call for ‘full access‘, ‘frictionless trade‘, ‘harmonisation‘ and ‘alignment‘. And what could be wrong with that? Having ‘access‘ sounds like a good thing right? And friction sounds like a bad thing? And who could object to ‘harmonising‘ things to make them all nice and harmonious? I will explain:
I live in East Sussex. East Sussex has ‘fully aligned‘, ‘frictionless‘ trade with West Sussex. Between the two there is free movement of goods, services, labour and capital. People from East Sussex can work in West Sussex. Goods and services traded in one can be traded in the other just as easily. This is because they are part of the same nation. We can be an independent nation or we can have ‘fully aligned frictionless trade‘ but not both. To be independent is to have your own system. To have the same system is to be not independent.
It is therefore oxymoronic to claim to respect the referendum result whilst calling for ‘alignment‘, ‘full access‘ or ‘frictionless trade‘: to have these things is to not have the independence we voted for. And to campaign for them is to campaign against honouring the democratic vote.
Seriously, is their offer that we would still be able to vote for better laws – just so long as those laws have nothing to do with goods, services, labour and capital? But that’s everything!
So don’t think calls for ‘harmonisation‘ are innocuous technicalities. They are not. The EU seeks to control how we trade in order to achieve their ultimate goal of controlling every aspect of our society. Their calls for ‘aligned, frictionless, harmonised, access‘ are a mendacious attempt to achieve through technocratic stealth what they cannot achieve through democratic vote.
