    IT’S POLITICS: The Madness of Brexit – Retrospective- 2026/01/25

    Many Brexiteers take a simplistic, restricted and shallow view of how the UK will leave the European Union.

    It’s to be expected.

    Some people are both wilfully ignorant and certain of their beliefs, even though their beliefs are no better than reactionary and rationalised prejudice, socialised absurdity and tidy-minded incongruence.

    It’s to be expected. (more…)

    In my opinion, Brexit, any Brexit, could spell economic, political and social disaster for the UK. Brexit could ensure the demise of the Good Friday Agreement, with seriously damaging consequences. It could see the independence of Scotland – not necessarily a bad thing for Scotland, but yet another unintended consequence of Brexit. And, it could significantly deteriorate the rights and conditions of workers in the UK.

    So, I wish to put a Brexit question to Jeremy Corbyn.

    Will the working people in the UK be better off if the UK leaves the European Union?

    When you offer people all of the benefits of the single market and the customs union, but without any of the EU bureaucracy, constraints and costs, what happens?

    We ran an experimental consultation last year in the UK just to demonstrate what happens when bat-shit-crazy mad-cow Britain has a chance to throw a spanner in the works. Some people will inevitably believe the boloney whilst others will use it as a mere tool in a simple-minded and obtuse attempt to rationalise their own irrationality and misanthropy. Nobody can throw a spanner in the works quite like the Brits.

    What will the UK look like ‘post-Brexit?

    Will Brexit result, as I read on Twitter, in the UK “taking back what we never lost to lose everything we currently have.”?

    My concern is about what could happen to the people in the UK when we have finally run-away from Europe.

    With Brussels gone, with the EU and the Single Market gone, with our EU citizenship ripped from our cold dead hands, who will Brexiteers have to complain about once we have become an isolated, tiny and populous ex-colonialist island to the east of New Jersey?

    Brexit is not legit, and the highest expression of patriotism and democratic credibility that is at our disposal is to lawfully and rightfully oppose all forms of Brexit. (more…)

    They told us that by voting for Brexit we would take back control.

    They told us that Brexit would mean control over sovereignty and immigration. Which would mean total control over the economy, culture, society, law making, international relationships and trade.

    They told us that voting for Brexit was the only patriotic option on offer.

    This is what the backers of Brexit, through media, political and celebrity bullshitting agents, and a plethora of Brexit’s useful idiots, were telling us we would get once we were out of the EU. (more…)
