The Consequences of Brexit [part 4]

[I1L2T3]

We elect our decision makers, - they make our decisions.

 

What you mean is you have been duped into believing you should have a personal say in every decision.

 

You have misunderstood or have been misled.

 

And the government are quietly dropping most of the things they promised to hardline Brexiters;

By 2020 we’ll probably decide there is no point leaving.

What a complete pile of nonsense. Secret and shadowy? I’ve been donating to and supporting them since the start. There’s thousands of UK citizens providing support. And it’s about as transparent as you can get.

 

Where are you getting this crap from?

 

'Best for Britain' financial backer George Soros certainly doesn't want what's best for Britain. He is a super rich, unelected dual Hungarian and US citizen who has pumped vast sums of money into his political causes around the world in order to dictate policy to governments.

 

And he has done this using money he gained from speculating on British economic misery. 'Best for Britain' is simply being paid to carry out Soros long term agenda of subverting democracy for the benefit of a super wealthy clique of global capitalists.

Is that why newspapers such as the Daily Mail and Telegraph support Brexit?

We were warned a vote to Leave the EU would lead to an immediate and profound economic shock (with negative growth and unemployment increasing by around 500,000) when in fact growth has accelerated and employment has GROWN by around 560,000 since the vote.

 

What's more, when we finally leave the rich mans club with it's rich mans rules, we will finally be free to nationalise energy, water and the railway industry. We can impose tax rises on the big businesses and enormously wealthy individuals who profited from our EU membership. Brexit is the opportunity to redistribute power and wealth away from the EU and it's supporters and give it instead to decent hard working people.

 

Let's do this!

In this country we call them Tories, you know, the ones who gave us the referendum, think about it.....

I voted to Leave the EU because I wanted to give a pay rise to the poor, not Goldman Sachs. I have been proved correct for taking this stance. Another day, another employer very reluctantly admits that they will have to increase wages for low paid staff thanks to the Brexit vote.

 

Very wealthy EU supporter David Page, whose private equity firm 'Fulham Shore' owns the pizza chain 'Franco Manca', has stated that there is "bigger competition for a lesser pool of staff" since the June 2016 vote.

 

This means his company might even "have to increase our bonus packages". It is reported here as a negative effect of Brexit in the pro-EU Financial Times:

But anything that boosts wages is very positive for workers!

 

Brexit is all about moving the balance of power away from the EU supporting bosses and giving it to the workers.

 

That's why the establishment hates it so much.

[Phanerothyme]

It's also why Corbyn is probably pro-brexit (in principle at least)

!

 

Occasionally..maybe you should broaden your scope.. Why would Boris Johnson and Nigel Farage et al be all for Brexit if was "for the people?"

As the UK only produce 43% of our gas usage, do you think that the likes of Russia and Norway might get a tad angry if we hijacked their property?

No its you that have misread and have come to your own conclusion.

 

If you read my past posts you will understand that I have always maintained that it is the people who do the voting and then its for the government to carry out the policies. Parliament approve those acts to enable us to vote and the individual has no say only a vote.

Better tell Corbyn as I'm sure he will understand as its him and Labour that want to Re-Nationalise everything.
