* A THREAD *

1. As Brexiteers, we are sick to death of the daily lies and manipulation from politicians, the media, large parts of the public sector, educational institutions en masse, and of course this new, weird breed of celebrity luvvie.

THIS PERVERSION MUST STOP.

#Brexit
2. From the very moment 24th June 2016 came, Remainers have tried every trick in the book to reverse the result of the referendum. They now tell us, every day, “nobody voted for no deal. It wasn’t on the table.” This is merely the latest perversion, the latest Remain lie.
3. Firstly, the phrase “no deal” is a Remain-concocted construct specifically designed post-referendum to be used as a vehicle to create an economic climate of fear over Brexit. Whether it is ‘hard’ Brexit, a ‘cliff-edge’ Brexit, or 10 other variations: the purpose is the same.
4. But, not only is the purpose the same, the origin of these phrases is the same. The Remain establishment has crafted its own vocabulary in order to fearmonger, twist perceptions, and shape the argument, with the ultimate aim of scaring people into accepting their world view.
5. The “no deal” rhetoric they use now, *always* focused on economics, is nothing more than a continuation of the Project Fear tactics presented to the British people pre-referendum, and flatly rejected as a result. But regardless of whether the term was invented post-ref...
6. ..their argument is that the British people voted unanimously for a deal at the ballot box, and that subsequently there is no mandate for leaving without a deal. This is totally and utterly FALSE for three main, unequivocal reasons. And we’re about to tell you why.
7. Firstly, for Remainers who suddenly care so much about “Parliamentary sovereignty” (name one of them who mentioned it beforehand, we dare you), they are mightily quick to forget that Parliament voted to trigger Article 50 & therefore enshrine our exit, deal or no deal, in law.
8. If the British people who voted leave had been so adamant that leaving with a deal was the only option, why did all Parliamentarians not ensure that a deal was struck before enacting A50? The answer: because leaving *always* meant the possibility of trading on WTO terms.
9. Secondly, it was an either or referendum & neither side voted for a specific version of leave or remain. We make no apologies for parroting the well-used phrase that leave really did mean ‘to leave’. Which is why May’s surrender treaty was so roundly hated. Remainers know this
10. And thirdly, despite so many diatribes to the contrary, leaving on WTO terms (or ‘no deal’ if you’re a manipulative Remainer) was EXPLICITLY and REPEATEDLY explained to the British people pre-referendum. By both sides. This is a matter of public record, despite what they say.
11. “At the end of those two years you are out and you have to operate under World Trade Organisation rules,” PM Cameron said unequivocally on a Sky News debate three weeks before the referendum. He could not have been clearer, but Remainers pretend it never happened.
12. “Then of course there are those who argue that we could pull out of the EU and fall back on the World Trade Organisation rules,” PM Cameron warned again in a different speech on 10 March 2016. But no, nobody knew anything about not having a deal according to lying Remainers.
13. In the Remain hotbed of Bristol, Chancellor Osborne said: “There’s relying on our existing membership of the World Trade Organisation where, like Russia or Brazil, you put nothing into the EU, but you get nothing out in terms of preferential access. That’s the WTO model.”
14. “If we haven’t negotiated a new trading relationship with the European Union within 2 years we revert to what are called World Trade Organisation terms,” said Labour frontbencher Hillary Benn on Britain’s premier politics talk show on 9 June 2016. See a pattern emerging here?
15. “Once you invoke Article 50 it is a one-way street to the exit with no agreement of any kind at all, if necessary,” Dominic Grieve passionately stated on 22 February 2016. Now, either the passion went to his head or he has a bout of amnesia because NOW he says...
16. ...(fast-forward to 2019) that “What was not debated in 2016 was the likelihood of leaving the EU with no deal.” Of course there is another explanation, that like all of these manipulative EU nationalists, he’s just an unashamed liar attempting an open coup on democracy.
17. Sadly for Grieve and his ilk, the internet is an unforgiving place for exposing such blatant and outright lies. This is just one, quick example about how the Remain juggernaut uses language to deceive, to scare, to cover their lies, and to influence. Don’t be fooled by it.
18. We could bring you dozens of examples. From the “People’s Vote” (excluding over half of the people) to the “Government of National Unity” (uniting less than half of the electorate), Remainers are winners at one thing: lies and manipulation. The Kings of gutter politics.
19. So the next time a Remainer lectures you on “hAvInG No MaNdAtE”, kindly point the British-loathing, anti-democrats to this thread to shatter any illusions on what leave voters were presented with before and at the ballot box. When people voted to leave, we really did mean it.
20. And their lie factory; their manipulation manifesto; their deceit depot WILL - NOT - PREVAIL. Not now, not ever. When they talk about the referendum “being tainted” simply agree with them. Because, after all, it was despicable that Remain outspent Leave by £14,934,325.
21. It was despicable that elderly voters were threatened with the removal of bus passes, that the electorate were trolled into thinking an immediate recession would hit. It was despicable that the Government spent taxpayers money on a Remain propaganda leaflet delivered to...
22. ..the doorstep of every British household. It was despicable that the Remain campaign used the full mechanisms of the civil service in order to try and outfox the British public. So yes, agree with the manipulative moles, the referendum *was* tainted. Sadly on both sides.
23. Watch the lies become more incessant and the deceit ever-more desperate as these people try literally anything to overthrow British democracy. We know Brexiteers will stand shoulder-to-shoulder to reject these dangerous tactics and triumph in the battle and the war.
