This is quite a steaming pile of horseshit from brexiteers

So let's get started
Image
1.1 I remember Vote Leave calling the EU the 4th reich
1.1 I remember Vote Leave calling the EU the 4th reich

What does it say about the UK that we abandoned our neighbours to the "4th reich in progress" ?

Rather than help save them? ImageImage
1.2. I also remember the old selling of the EU will collapse (soon) peddled both pre and post 2016 Image
1.3 I also remember the last 7 years where brexiteers have tried to peddle their shite to encourage other nations to ponder exit of the EU

Whether that be Jacob Rees Mogg who lies to Her Majesty touting his shite to the AfD or Irexit or Frexit or Itexit Image
1.4 Also - if the EU is such a threatening work in progress - why is Boris Johnson encouraging Ukraine to join the EU?

Riddle me fucking that

Image
2.1

"restored accountability"

really

fascinating Image
2.2 oh on accountability see also #Partygate

(warning: very long thread)

2.3 lawful electorate

I see where you are going here - afraid of proposed franchise changes to the electorate?

Unsurprising there

As you feared 16-18yo 's in 2016 or honouring franchise promises for then

You are terrified now
2.4

"Why would the newly re-enfranchised British public give that control back to Brussels"

How is that working for Northern Ireland ?

Image
3.1 "better decisions"

a reminder

here's the sterling crash they caused in June 2016 Image
my bad that was Liz Truss' bingo card

here we are here ImageImage
3.4 on foreign policy Image
Image
4.1 it's quite simple

a comparison with what brexit was *sold as* Image
Image
5.1

It wasn't a punishment beating

Liars, cheats and racists sold a con

Sadly people fell for that con

And the outcome was entirely predictable Image
Image
6.1 Weird you pick on France

Is that the old Liz Truss "friend or foe" reamplification ?

The UK has done itself so much reputational damage with how it exited the EU

Deliberately so

Scorched earth so as to poison the UK body politic

Cheats liars and racists desperate.
Image
7.1 we have a shit deal that is nowhere near as good as what brexit was sold as Image
Image
8.1 ah the old EU share of global trade bollocks

And of course the desperate hollow fucking flag shagging of AUKUK or CANZUK or Commonwealth some other fucked up combination of desperate bullshit

Image
Image
Image
9.1 I remember over the last 7 years many brexiteers not caring about damage ot the city of london

in fact those metropolitan elite remoaner folk could fuck off and leave

just like how was it Liam Fox put it - oh yes - the "main cards" of EU citizens living in the UK
Image
10.1 it wasn't unsatisfactory

it was a great membership

sadly cheating lying racists exploited

1. A global financial crash
2. the affects of austerity (which MANY OF THEM ACTIVELY SOUGHT)

they knew they had one shot

and they were prepared to do anything to win
10.2 and on an "acrimonious exit"

just fuck off

that is on us

that cheating lying racists sold tickets to a fucking mirage

and then getting when that the mirage never existed

blaming anyone but themselves Image

I am going to write the speech I would have given on 19th June 2023 in Parliament

In response to the Privileges Committee report

You see

I think there were many good contributions from MPs

But none quite reached the level I wanted to see
As this is their *ONE* chance

To put in Hansard a record

Of exactly who and what Boris Johnson was and is

So let's begin
I want you to close your eyes.

Now this is a lesson for school children as much as it is for adults.

I want to set up a leadership laboratory.

I want you to consider the question.

Why would someone follow you?

"All of which leads me to ask about Johnson’s occasionally fickle relationship with the truth. How important is the truth to him?"
“Um. It is hugely,” he says quietly. “It is everything isn’t it? And I think the truth will set you free, is my view of the world. So, as far as you possibly can, you’ve got to discover it and explain it.”
"He goes on to give an example of Churchill deliberately overstating the size of the British fleet to Parliament during the Second World War, “but basically, I think the reason he was great is he tried to be intellectually honest with himself.”"

I am blocked by most of them

So if I have mistyped their handles I do apologise
So on that pie chart I included at the start

I created that to test my eye sight

As of 9am 24/05/2020

The position of 307 MPs on social media from with regard to Dominic Cummings Image

I stand with Nadine Dorries

I think it is horrible that she has been so badly treated

Let me explain why

You see

Because it's quite simple

I don't care about who and what Nadine is

I care about the process
So

A person has been nominated for an honour

In this case this person is an MP

And in this case the honour they have been nominated for is elevation to the House of Lords to become a life peer

There is no joy, no glee, no happiness. Just sadness.

That so as it begun in 2001 (or probably even earlier)

An amoral cheating lying racist corrupt law breaking charlatan & those who enabled him, sponsored him & shilled for him

Have wrought such damage Image
This will be a compendium of threads

Not just on one man

But on those who enabled his ascent

And worse

At every stage of his ascent when it was utterly clear who and what he was

You didn’t care

He was propelled further

A useful totem
The body of the fish used the head of the fish as much as the head used the body

It is a symbiotic relationship

I almost pity Boris

That he was transactionally exploited for his usefulness

All for a cause and cult
