The Brexit referendum was badly
designed and unfairly won. So why is there so much deference to it? - newstatesman.com
But there was a much deeper unfairness
with 2016 than Leave campaign spending, and that is the behaviour of much of the media. Most of the right-wing press effectively groomed their readers long before the referendum with constant stories, often simply false, of an interfering Brussels bureaucracy: so much so that the EU set up a website to correct untruths.

how Britain was stolen from the people by the brexiteers
Brexit is an international conspiracy of rich business people mainly currency dealers and hedge fund managers to steal the British economy from the British people. If we are to survive Brexit a communist style nationalized infrastructure of essential services like transport, health services, power, water and food supplies will be necessary for the people to survive the poverty that Brexit will bring.
It will become a matter of who do you stand for Boris Johnson or the parliament and the people . Currently Boris is trying to position him self as the people. He is not he is more akin to a dictator or monarch who believes he rules by the divine right. of 160,000 votes of his conservative membership a group of British individuals who believe they have divine right to rule, By dint of being conservatives . Deluded fools that they are .

THE REALITY OF THE UK TODAY FROM A POLITICAL PERSPECTIVE
DEMOCRACY IS WORKING IN THE UK .
IT
IT
DEMOCRACY IS WORKING IN THE UK .
ITS JUST WE HAVE NEVER ACTUALLY SEEN IT WORKING BEFORE
ITS JUST WE HAVE NEVER ACTUALLY SEEN IT WORKING BEFORE
BORIS IS SCARED HE WILL LOSE ANOTHER REFERENDUM
&
JEREMY IS SCARED HE WILL LOSE ANOTHER ELECTION
JEREMY IS SCARED HE WILL LOSE ANOTHER ELECTION
REST OF THE PARTY'S KNOW THAT AN ELECTION WILL GIVE THEM MORE SEATS
The people of the european union look on with astonishment at how politically and democratically unsophisticated the population of the UK actually are .
Interviews with the average person in the streets in the media are abysmal a great deal of them coming across as un-educated and some what dumb .
With the current government looking like a band of teenagers from the privileged public school and grammar schools lining their own pockets and operating a policy of we are your betters and we know what is best. While driving the economy head long over a cliff .
The trade deals should have been discussed and agreed before article 50 was invoked. "Talk about putting the cart before the horse"

THE BRIXIT MESS AND THE BORIS TAKE OVER
I
think the whole shutting parliament is the first act by Boris and
Moog to do away with elections all together .
I
remember seeing Boris on a BBC program years ago when he was not so
famous talking about how he envied the Roman empire being able to
run the whole empire on just 200 civil servants. I think he will run
the government on as few people as he can get away with its the same
as Trump has done in the white house reducers the core of pole
running government to a sect few supporters and get rid of any one
else by what every means it takes .
I
belie that is what he is softening us up for or rather creating new
president because we do not have a written constitution so there is
nothing to stop him. As long as he can just get these things through
by stealth and with the moneyed classes supporting him an certain
sections of the media .
His
plan is for Britain becomes banana republic tax haven between the
investments of the worlds major economies . It will be a sort of
British Virgin islands heavy weight or full fat with the poor aspect
of the British population in the same sate as the poor populations in
the virgin islands but with out the good weather but still unlikely
to be in the path of hurricanes.
However
with global warming I am not so sure about the later thing .
FAR
FROM HAVING A WORLD VIEW THAT MAY HELP COMBAT THE GLOBAL CATASTROPHE WE ARE FACING WITH CLIMATE CHANGE BORIS'S PLANS AND VIEWS ARE SELF
FIRST, SELF LAST, SELF EVERY TIME
It
is this attitude that plays to them bulk of the public in England
who are in essence a pretty self centered inward looking nation .
It
is this small majority that we witnessed win the referendum for
leaving the European union the areas of the country with the highest
immigration like London and the major cities mainly voted to stay in
the union. The areas that European immigrants had moved to and
settled in largely smaller more rural towns and city voted out as
this was their first real interaction with internationals. Where
as the city had been multicultural and multi ethnic for a much
longer time and had realized the benefits of many languages and
cultures. Its all so true to say that many of the people who came
from the eastern block country of Europe moved to more rural city and
did not come to the big city and have little or no contact with the Afro Caribbean and Asian peoples and to some extent side with the
people of England who do not like our commonwealth citizens who are
now British also many of those commonwealth Britain voted out because
they mistakenly thought that by getting out of Europe we would let in
more of their relatives. This may be just from talking to my neighbors in green street Newham an area that Mr Trump stated was
a Muslim no go area I am a white working class gay man born raised
and educated in this area for the last 68 years its never been a no
go area . Though many of my fellow class mates moved out and describe
it as a no go area or state that they moved out because of all “the colored and Pakistanis that have moved in “ from what they
consider is the threatened bastions of Bishops Storford Harlow
Chelmsford Broadstaires, Christchurch and many other places in the
south east. Those few of us who remained here are not so incline to
those sort of views and comments we actually like and get on with our neighbors .

What happened to Pride in London ?
while examining the difference between the pride events of the 1970`s and early 80`s with a friend. here in London having just had the 2018 pride march through London . I Proffered this explanation as to why they are so different [we had been watch some BFI documentary footage of the 1976 pride march and rally with speakers ]
.
I know it all went an changed after the last political pride in 1980 it was taken over by the clubs and the start of cooperate sponsorship. In 1980 it was a massive protest against Thatcher clause 28 and her policy's. After that the new gay right wing millionaires of that generation took over and made it a money spinning event . An that is how it has stayed a party and money making event for the clubs and chance for the cooperates to pink wash their reputation. I actually joint chaired then 1980 pride committee even bank rolled a lot of it personally lost a couple of thousand I could ill afford . it was largely run by the last of the gay liberation groups. That year there was a heavy police presents and a lot of the Brixton fairy's where arrested along with the gay Rasta boys and a lot of the other squatters from Railton road. I had a stand off with the press and the police commissioner that day. After they had arrested a thatcher drag act with a fake hatchet in her hat and a bottle of milk it was the first time they kettle`d a crowed as far as I am aware. Of course the next year we had the Brixton rots in April and at the next pride most of the active political gays where to busy fighting court cases or raising funds for the legal defense of people to get involved with pride and the right wing took over and did the whole pink pound thing .So those of us who are politically minded are still fighting the same old fight and have to accept that for the most part the right wing is still in control same as in straight life. though i often think that LGBT community has a slightly higher incidence of conservative right wing members .though they are not allays out and up front so to speak.
To be in the pride parade now you have to register with the police and give the names addresses and details of all the participants and all are issued with tickets to participate . 1984 or what ?
