That hypocrite Nigel Farage doesn’t care about “loss of sovereignty” now, does he? As long as the money is going into his coffers, he doesn’t give a damn about loss of sovereignty.
Dec 5, 2023 | That is the risk Rishi Sunak is taking to win a general election. He is gambling with the reputation of our nation. He is behaving like a fool and he is doing so in a calculated and deceptive way. Cleverly rightly says "we can now move quickly"- like any criminal might add escaping the scene of the crime.
Nov 18, 2023 | I thought I saw a sign of life as Suella Braverman was sacked but Sunak has confirmed that the moral leadership is missing- this is a party on the last stages of decay, what Bercow called "a rotting corpse". What is left, its zombie pretence of authority and life is controlled by the shady forces of the ERG [European Research Group] and its part-time members (each eager to stake out an afterlife in media or business) can no longer command respect. It is sad to see such a death.
Dec 4, 2022 | We can save our country and even the union but not with this sledgehammer introspective politics we have currently embraced. And if The EU was designed to stop war in Europe we can see clearly how the fracturing of the EU has led most clearly to war in Europe in the Ukraine. We need more unity and less division.
Well said! Brexit was an act of self-harm. Suicide if you will. Nothing good will ever come out of Brexit. I, too, believe that the UK will eventually break up. Westminster's days are numbered. Scotland wants its independence. If that happens, Wales could well follow suit. Ireland should be united in any case. We can blame Cameron, Farage, Hannan et al for this mess.
We need to get back into the EU (if we can) as soon as possible. Walking away from the biggest single market in the world —The Single Market—was stupid. We Brits also lost all our privileges by exiting the club. That was bad enough; but what always seems to be forgotten is the peace that the European Union helped bring to Europe, a continent which had been riven by war for centuries. The Conservative Party has a great deal to answer for. And I write this as a one-time dyed-in-the-wool Conservative voter. After the fiasco of Brexit, never shall I vote for that party again.
Keir Starmer is as good as useless, too. He is delusional. He wants to make Brexit work. Brexit will never work. At least not to our advantage. It will impoverish the nation. It is already doing so at breakneck speed.
