We did have a strange paradox in politics when Teressa May was in power as the old the auld 2-piece suit drapped ashen faced MayBot was a “remainer” believing we should remain in the EU yet she was leading the negotiations to get us out of it then there is Corbyn, the far lefty leader of the opposition party who who was always against the EU all his political career describing it as a “military Frankenstein” and vocal against the EU's “bullying of a socialist Greece” and voting against everything EU since 1975 now changing his views by wanting to stay in (pressure from the Blarite elements of this party?)
I won’t even mention the joke which is the SNP who never wanted in the EU in the first place away back in the old days (except perhaps joining with Nazi Germany when the WW2 was looking bleak for the UK...is that a "below the belt"punch? never the less true and a fact they are desperate to paint over) as their views change like the wind to placate the electorate to further their chance of independence and in the case rejoining the EU if we come out as the UK then ironically if an “Independent” Scotland did get back in (not being vetoed by any of the other EU states which have their own independence movements within their respective countries which they wish to not to fuel then cause problems) Scotland would then hand over powers it was given back to the EU such as the fishing industry and possibly use the Euro as a currency....so independent of Scotland...NOT !! Does. It make sense? but that’s Scottish nationalism for you... even sheep can wave flags and deface saltires with political slogans .... damn .. and there I said I was not wanting to talk about the joke which is the SNP ... but it’s too easy ... like shooting fish in a barrel.
.... but anyway .... back on topic ... as I mentioned in my Facebook page (no, I won't add you), BREXIT is a strange old kettle of fish.
The further right you travel in politics the more likely you are in favour of it, but also the further left you travel the more likely you are in favour of it too as the more Marxist left see the EU as the supranational entrenchment of capitalism. A curious concurrence of opinions of BREXIT stance is it not? (I will have commonalities between liberals and fascists for another post)
I wish to point out that I voted remain but it was a close call and if we do finally break out of the EU I and everyone else won’t really know if yes or no was the right thing to vote for as the whole move is unprecedented... but after reading much material on Brexit and it’s supporters I can see some of their points and logic and have been mistaken to call them (all) racists or small Britainers ...the is unfair and shallow ...there are some valid points and fears which I have since accepted and although I still remain a remainer somewhat with less confidence I do respect the logic of some polar views on leaving the EU.
At least now is power is BoJo ... and as he is and always has been a brexiteer then he is the right man to negotiate with the EU .... I don’t think there can be any logic to agree differently on this point at least.
