Russia, Belarus and Britbin
I stole this from Facebook’s Jon Danzig.
In May 1948 Winston Churchill declared at the launch of the Congress of Europe: ๐ช๐ฒ ๐ฐ๐ฎ๐ป๐ป๐ผ๐ ๐ฎ๐ถ๐บ ๐ฎ๐ ๐ฎ๐ป๐๐๐ต๐ถ๐ป๐ด ๐น๐ฒ๐๐ ๐๐ต๐ฎ๐ป ๐๐ต๐ฒ ๐๐ป๐ถ๐ผ๐ป ๐ผ๐ณ ๐๐๐ฟ๐ผ๐ฝ๐ฒ ๐ฎ๐ ๐ฎ ๐๐ต๐ผ๐น๐ฒ.
Churchillโs dream has nearly come true. Today, ๐ฎ๐น๐บ๐ผ๐๐ ๐ฒ๐๐ฒ๐ฟ๐ ๐๐๐ฟ๐ผ๐ฝ๐ฒ๐ฎ๐ป ๐ฐ๐ผ๐๐ป๐๐ฟ๐ is either in the EU or has applied to join.
The outsiders? ๐ฅ๐๐๐๐ถ๐ฎ, ๐๐ฒ๐น๐ฎ๐ฟ๐๐, ๐ฎ๐ป๐ฑ ๐๐ฟ๐ถ๐๐ฎ๐ถ๐ป.
Yesterday, Moldova confirmed its path to EU membership when its people voted by a decisive majority for the pro-EU governing party, PAS, to remain in office.
The election was clouded by credible allegations of widespread Russian interference, echoing claims of Russian meddling during elections in Romania, France, Germany, the Netherlandsโฆ
โฆand yes, also in the UK, where the Brexit vote wasnโt just a dream of Putinโs – he helped make it happen.
If you doubt that, please:

Despite Putinโs efforts to destabilise the European Union in pursuit of a hybrid Soviet Union, the EU remains ๐๐๐ฟ๐ผ๐ป๐ด, ๐๐ป๐ถ๐๐ฒ๐ฑ, ๐ฎ๐ป๐ฑ ๐ด๐ฟ๐ผ๐๐ถ๐ป๐ด.
Even far-right parties such as Marine Le Penโs National Rally in France have abandoned talk of leaving the EU. They know itโs a vote-loser. Instead, they now propose reform from within.
Frexit, Grexit, Italexit, Polexit, Huxitโฆ all off the table.
Churchill called for a union of Europe as the antidote to war, on a continent where both world wars began and where there had been hundreds of wars and conflicts, together with dictatorships.
The EU has helped to make war between its members unthinkable.

Despite absurd claims that the EU is collapsing, the facts say otherwise:
the worldโs biggest trading bloc
one of the planetโs three largest economies, with the USA and China
the euro, the worldโs second most traded currency
frictionless trade and free movement across 31 nations in the EU Single Market
democratic, rules-based governance agreed by all members
a global standard-bearer for rights of workers, consumers, travellers and citizens
๐๐ผ๐ฟ๐๐-๐ณ๐ผ๐๐ฟ ๐ฐ๐ผ๐๐ป๐๐ฟ๐ถ๐ฒ๐ ๐ผ๐ณ ๐๐๐ฟ๐ผ๐ฝ๐ฒ are now either in the EU, its Single Market, or have applied to join.
The UK is the only EU member ever to have left. No other country is following.
Does Britain really want to remain an outsider, lumped with Russia and Belarus?
Brexit offers no benefits, only enormous downsides.

MUNGUIN'S NEW REPUBLIC 
England still believes it is better than the EU.
The EU is standing back and barely controlling its giggles while the UK descends into the diplomatic equivalent of “Billy no mates” while successive governments sell off the family silver for a few more months of power.
Our utilities and public services are owned by foreign billionaires and hedge funds who don’t care if we get value for money as long as THEY get value for money.
But yeah “we got blue passporots lads” and a seperate (massive and slow moving) queue to go with it.

Totally agree, Sandy.
I wonder that it didn’t occur to Mrs Thatcher that far from being a share owning society, a lot of people would own the shares (which were “bigly” underpriced) for a few weeks and sell them off at a fair profit.
And that eventually, on the open market, they would be bought across the world and far from being a society owning our own utilities, they would be owned by people in China, USA, Germany, France, etc. and these people wouldn’t give a damn about the quality of service…
As for leaving the EU, it must rank as one of the stupidest things the Brits ever did.
I genuinely can’t see one advantage and I can see so many disadvantages.
I suppose they thought there would always be America to cuddle up to… but with a senile lunatic in charge there, you can’t possibly count on anything.
Billy no mates, is bang on.
And the worst thing is WE voted to stay and no one gave a toss. The Kingdom of Denmark consists of three countries. Denmark itself, in the EU, Faroes which has never been in the EU, Greenland which was in but voted to leave in 1985. OK, I accept that Danes, Greenlanders and Faroese are pretty smart and democratic, but if they can cope with that situation, why could not Britain?
The blue passports are made by a French company in a factory in Poland as far as I know. That’s control taken back.
Your roses are red,
Your passports are blue,
Now go and stand in that very long queue!
Idiots.

The EU was always too left wing for many English voters.Their culture and history has always been based on power being concentrated in the hands of an individual and his representatives.
Fertile ground for right wing political philosophy to take root and flourish.
Farage and his Reform party are simply the next logical step for many in England who despise democracy and any other idea which relies on communal responsibility.

I look at what is happening in the USA under his dear friend and I despair for Scotland in 2028.
And perhaps the worst of itis that before brexit, I could have upped sticks and moved to France, just like that.
Now I know I still can, but goodness me, what a palaver… and I’d have far fewer rights that I would have had back in 2016.
Still, at least all the super rich so called patriots can still offshore and tax avoid, eh Farage?

There was also an argument from left leavers that the EU was too right wing. The ability to sell contrary versions of Brexit is why the UK ended up leaving the EU. Not one of them has been fulfilled because each version was a political fantasy that had no majority support. Still fuming.

Yes, Tony Benn and his wing of the party were against it for that reason… and unelected bureaucrats, which, of course, the UK would never have!!!!
I’m fuming too. The EU was nothing but good to and for me. My country voted strongly to stay in and yet their lies have stolen all these freedoms from me.

Effectively, that is true. He seems to think that Antifa is a movement and declared it illegal… but as far as I can make out it isn’t… it’s just a philosophy, a political stance. Presumably those who fought Nazis and the Fascisti in the second world war were pretty Antifa, you know with their mission being to kill them. So, are these now dead vets to be regarded now as terrorists and anti-American?

The Generals and Admirals thing was a farce. He brought them from all over the world at vast expense to listen to a drunk talk a load of garbage… some of it really offensive garbage including things about “fat leaders”, then they roll out the fat commander in chief who did his usual rambling.
His first line was “I’ve never come onto a stage and been greeted by silence”…(words to that effect), seemingly not knowing that military don’t clap the CIC and that this wasn’t a “show”. He did tell them they could clap and they didn’t.
I think he’ll have to go relatively soon as he descends further into senility.

Oh don’t, it’s not that seeing Farage is the cause of a cold shrivelling in my stomach, human types like him, the orange one, johnson and the like, you can meet them most days, with no ill effect. No, it’s the reminder that enough ordinary people, like the ones that you walk among, voted them into power.

Fair comment.
I know someone who says he’s going to vote for Farage next time. He thinks he pays too much tax and gets nothing for it… reckons Farage will cut taxes on people like him.
If he does cut taxes, I suspect it will be on people like Farage, not ordinary people… and as for getting nothing for it… well, that’s just plain stupid. The roads he drives to work on, the doctor he sees, the schools his kids went to… and a thousand other things.
Plain stupid, but it speaks of utter dissatisfaction with the way the country is being run, and there being nothing to choose between Labour and the Tories.

Rather worrying that British Labour is taking a leaf out of Felon Trump’s book and cancelling journalists that disagree with the party.
“Iโve had a taste of this authoritarianism myself. I have been covering Labour and Conservative conferences almost every year for the decade and a half. Each year, I confront ministers with uncomfortable questions โ on issues such as benefit cuts, sleaze allegations, or broken promises. This year, I questioned Labour grandees, including the foreign secretary, on Britainโs continued sale of crucial components for Israelโs murderous fighter jets. The next day, the party emailed me to revoke my conference pass, citing โcomplaintsโ about my โconductโ. It added that: โAfter careful consideration, weโve concluded that we cannot continue your attendance while ensuring we meet our safeguarding obligations to all attendees.โ Rivkah Brown, another leftwing journalist, from Novara Media, also had her pass cancelled at almost the exact same time.”
What did that even mean?
