(Two-minute read)
The UK is making a spectacular demonstration of how to make a fool of itself with the entire world looking on.
There is no doubt that a hard Brexit will cost the rest of us a lot – there’s no question about that – but it is nothing compared to what is waiting for England.
If the UK manages to agree on the Withdrawal the paper it is written on it won’t be worth toilet paper within 24 hours.
Why?
Because there will be a New European Commission and a General Election in the UK.
First, the trucks will be jammed all the way to Wales, because the borders are back. Then the fuel will run out at filling stations and medicines will run out in pharmacies. And once all the Polish plumbers have gone home, there will be nobody to call when the EU blocks the toilet.
Then the Russians will realise they have invested far too much money in the English real estate market and will be incensed because their investments are going down the toilet.
It doesn’t work to declare the government a kind of foreign power, whose rise can’t really be explained, we have all seen that before.
Unfortunately, in a democracy, any government that has come into office without its leader elected by the people ( An expression of the will of the people) is doomed
This is why England needs a representative democracy not first past the post.
Almost everyone who I have heard talking about Brexit belong to the British establishment, meaning they went to an outrageously expensive private school and completed their studies at Cambridge or Oxford. What in the name of God do they teach them? It certainly can’t be skills that prepare them for the real world.
Put your hand on heart, what does it tell us about a country when a man like Johnson is regarded as one of the clearest-thinking minds in the circle of power?
The disadvantage of being intelligent is that it hurts when you act stupid.
For a nation, the problem begins when the level of stupidity at the top is unusually high because the smarter people have thrown in the towel.
This is generally the point at which decline becomes inevitable.
There is a solution to all of this. Scrap leaving for five years. Get properly involved with the European project. Archive the reforms you want to see. Then leave if you wish.
Take a retrospective look at what Politicians have said about Brexit.
I quote ” THE FREE TRADE AGREEMENT THAT WE WILL HAVE TO DO WITH THE EU SHOULD BE ONE OF THE EASIEST IN HUMAN HISTORY” Liam Fox
The most hyperbolic prediction of all time.
There are more than two million Brits already live in another EU member state.
All are welcome the more the merry.
All human comments appreciated. All like clicks and abuse chucked in the bin.
