The ambiguity displayed by Corbyn's team since 2017 has come around and bitten him on the bum. Freaks like Watson and Starmer have always wanted to repudiate Brexit, and now incoherent wildebeests Thornberry, Abbott and McDonnell have been spooked into this stampede as well.
Meanwhile Corbyn's head of policy warns that adopting a pro-Remain position would neither win back defectors to the Liberals nor offset the exodus of Leave voters in key marginals.
So there they are then, still triangulating away and still ignorant of the basic premise of democracy. Still jerking around instead of respecting the clear majority in favour of leaving the EU.

They all say that we face a threat from the "hate filled far right" in the European Elections.

So that puts the cruddy Labour Party in a Venn Diagram overlap with Fascist behaviour. And certainly not the people who respect democracy and the British people's decision to leave the EU in the 2016 Referendum.
It is also funny how these Second Referendum/ Revoke nutters always cite a "Climate Emergency" as a reason to disavow Brexit.
Anyway today is the day to show these smug fraudsters what we think by voting for the Brexit Party. What a journey of discovery it has been. People like me worked their nuts off to support Corbyn when his chance came, but now despise this craven sellout.

In a nutshell they are saying that because of the Gina Millar ruling Mrs May has not been given the legal authority by Parliament to change the Brexit date, although she has supposedly done so on her own by aggreeing an extension. A case has been submitted to the High Court requesting a legal ruling that we left the EU on 29th March, and any further votes and actions in parliament are null & void.
It is irrelevant if you don't support the English Democrats because at least they are trying to do something for the Leave majority, and they are being ignored by most of the media and don't have the publicity to raise funds. If every Leaver donated £1 it might soon wipe the smiles of the faces of these smug politicians.

From the first draft of Flexit it was clear that the day we left was not the end but the start.

The legacy media will not tell you why they folded and no Moron of Parliament will have a clue either. The answer is Emissions Trading System or carbon credits as they are known. The EU excluded the UK from the scheme on 1 Jan because of the indecision created by the Morons. Had the Withdrawal Agreement been ratified all would be well - for a year or so anyway. Airlines get a lot of income from trading the credits. British Airways could face a loss of 300 million Euros because of this.

A lot has been made of May's weakness towards the EU and her capitulation, but Corbyn has been just as dire. From a position of strength, after his second leadership victory, he has played games and essentially followed the same trajectory as May.
In his recent newspaper article he deconstructed the Referendum vote. Apparently, Remainers were utopian idealists who wanted an open relationship with Europe. But the 17.4 million Brexit voters were merely angry at being left behind in our society. Instead of acknowledging valid political motives, he has chosen to pathologise the majority. The behaviour of a charlatan.
On his journey to Establishment Central, he has jettisoned his Eurosceptic baggage along with manifesto commitments and any respect for democracy. He could have attempted to educate the new party members about the credible socialist critique of the Euro project and the logical imperative to leave the Bloc.

So Theresa May has finally given in and opted for a wet border for N Ireland in the Withdrawal Agreement. The European Council will meet next week for M Barnier to explain the agreement and for them to assent to it. The European Commission must then agree to it as well which I would expect to be fairly certain given that Barnier was Juncker's choice as negotiator at the beginning. The European Parliament then has to agree it which is where there might be some discord but I suspect that it will be ratified. The UK and the EU then sign it and then as the end of the transition period approaches we will be pretty much where we have been as realisation dawns that the much vaunted Free Trade Agreement will cause nearly as much damage to the UK economy as no deal. IATA has already suggested that it is not long enough for an aviation deal.

Luckily the Irish media is better informed - not difficult obviously - and Varadka sees the December EC meeting as the next step in Theresa May's Brexit disaster.

IATA published a report on how they see the effect of no deal on the aviation industry. Their Director General notes that with no deal chaos is inevitable. Even then their report doesn't go far enough by glossing over the impossibility of the UK remaining in EASA without which all UK personnel accreditation is void outside this country. It also misses the glaring fact that there is a good reason Iceland, Liechtenstein, Norway and Switzerland are in EASA - namely membership of Efta. It does note that future aviation deal will take longer than 2 years to settle and that a BASA agreement would see flights drop to 5% of their current level. The lame legacy media managed to miss this important report - no surprise there.

The only unanswered question is how do they get it through their ratification? Maybe this is where they show their flexibility. Once the withdrawal agreement is signed we have transition. The government will then negotiate a trade deal that is much worse than being in the Single Market, in fact not that many notches above no deal. Remember that all those cheering a Canada ++ trade deal have never read it to see how little is in it. Of course the uncertainty of the outcome of the current talks is likely to mean that many companies will have left before the transition period even starts.

On our no deal exit, no more driving for these people until something - and there are a lot of somethings - get sorted. Sky screwed up a story on pilot licences by suggesting they would need reissue. Rubbish of course, but the real fact is that they will not be accepted to fly in the EU and probably beyond. With May having no room to move, could there be a last minute acceptance of the Irish Sea border so that parliament doesn't vote and we go straight to transition.

Countries with export booms used to be able to buy foreign assets or gold. Nowadays all Germany gets is a technical credit which under ECB regulations is unredeemable, without an expiry date and producing interest at the ECB refinancing rate of 0%.

Both of the main political parties lack credibility and legitimacy, because they have reneged on the Referendum decision.This disconnect between the political establishment and the electorate will have ramifications.
But Gerry will still owe me £100 next April.

There was a very good suggestion that the Great White Paper be printed on tissue paper and supplied in rolls. That way it would be of at least some use. I wonder if he is being misquoted but according to the Mail David Davis actually said that the EC will not accept the suggestions in the white paper. First time he has said something truthful. Given his lack of knowledge and rare visits to Brussels he will not be missed. So where next? Being ever so courteous M Barnier will receive the white paper and agree to look at it but will kick the rejection of its blatant stupidity down the road to the October EC meeting. Once formally rejected there are just 6 months left. The EC have given up on finding intelligent life in the UK government and are planning for a no deal Brexit. Hard to think of anything that can save us now. I look forward to your prompt payment of £100 at the start of April Mr Hall.

As we approach a defining moment in the history of the UK at this EC meeting on Thursday and Friday, I am sitting looking at the garden bathed in sunshine and hearing the planes taking off our way from Gatwick. If there is a 'no deal' Brexit - by that I mean that there is no agreement whatsoever about our future relationship with the EU come 29 March - then doing the same thing on 30 March will be very quiet. Gatwick's licence to operate will cease. The CAA will rush through something to get UK internal flights back in the air but getting international flights back is complex as there is not one single piece of legislation involved. Contrary to the 'take back control' mantra, the CAA will have to follow international rules to get airports re-licensed which is an example of what we call the double coffin lid - remove the EU legislation and find out there is international legislation sitting above.

We can't be certain when the cliff will arrive as if there is no resolution of the Irish border and a no deal exit, then the EU will almost certainly do what it needs to protect itself. We still have morons saying we owe the EU nothing and should refuse to pay which will ensure that nothing is done to help delay our sinking into obscurity. Aviation is in the worst situation in that come 30 March, any aircraft containing UK parts will be grounded. Since this is a global problem, there will be something to keep everyone's planes flying, except ours of course. And they won;t be flying here as our airport approvals will be void and closed to international flights.

With just over 3 weeks to the crunch EC meeting where the Irish border must be resolved, we still have nothing but magical thinking from May & Co and ignorant rubbish from Mogg & Co.

If May sticks to her rejection of the wet border backstop then we have a crisis. Is she stupid enough to walk away with nothing?

Quite rightly Michel Barnier has put the blame on the UK for the problem and requires the UK to solve it. Failure to resolve it by the June meeting will see the end of any further negotiations to scope out where talks on a future trade deal will go when we leave in March.

With no clarity on the final outcome however, information is filtering through of companies starting to implement changes to protect them against the worst. This trend will see our economy gradually slide away over the next year and during the transition with the media taking little notice.

That has already been translated into 9000 police officers by Labour - not sure of the equivalent in nurses/teachers. But it could still be turned around.

The dimwitted May in her great vision speech on Friday did actually utter some words of sense and did make UK history by being the first PM to actually publicly acknowledge that the EU merely passes on a lot of regulation from a higher level. At least 80% although I have heard a Norwegian source suggest that nearer 90% of Single Market (or CRA) regulations come from above the EU, and for any Ultra Brexit fans this means that they are regulations that we would keep leaving just around 10% EU only regulations.

That should make sobering reading for any UK notified body since come the end of the transition period, 31 Dec 2020 or some extended date beyond that, UK notified bodies cease to exist since they must be in a member state. Manufacturers of certified products must hope they can take their files to another body to continue production and export.

As for the EU controlling Brexit, well yes of course they are since the UK has only come up with one thing and that is the colour of passports. The EU are constantly asking May & Co what they want and answer comes there none. They really are that stupid and if you spent time with them Russ you would soon see they are incapable of any of the conspiracy subplots. Coming back to passports, the Council decision on colour was non-binding. We could have stayed with blue but the UK gov decided to change to harmonise. Colour is the only thing we can control since the contents is subject to an international approval. Not much taking back control there is there? And 80% of the EU regulations on trade that make up the Single Market come from above the EU and so won't change but the dimwits like Rees-Mogg don't know that. Too much detail for their brains.

Another perfect example of political subterfuge. This gender pay gap furore we are all suffering, forever in the news lately, has nothing to do with equal pay for women but everything to do with getting the top presenters to take a huge reduction in pay. Famous for 20 years? Tough! Most watched, loved, tweeted, lauded presenter on the planet? Sorry but...! The mighty Beeb is going to make huge savings but where will all that revenue go I wonder? Less repeats? I doubt it. Repeats are the bedrock that the Beeb relies on. So the big headline today is that presenters are going to be presented themselves with a "pay-cap". No mention yet of equal, gender neutral pay for the same job, just a cap. Socialism is coming folks, whereby the government owns and controls everything including you and your children. controlling every aspect of your life including transport, production, food, assets, the whole caboodle. Choice? Nope...not any longer! Take note of the insane new family laws in Canada.

All smoke & mirrors Gerry. I like this quote from George Carlin. Sums up the UK's left-wing / right-wing political system perfectly.
Quote: ""Bipartisan usually means that a larger-than-usual deception is being carried out". Today Jacob Reese Mogg is barking loudly about Brussels controlling our governments decisions surrounding Brexit. This is the main reason people give me for voting to leave. They are fed up of our lives being seriously manhandled and constantly under review by European leaders in Brussels. But it is neither these Eurocrats nor British political weapon bearers who make the most important decisions. There are hundreds of people in the shadows who have been controlling this world and everyone in it for many hundreds of years. The UK's future was already in the early planning stages in the 11th century. We have been used for many century's to push world domination by the super-elite multi-trillionaires. This little island is up for sale...60,000,000 careful owners...

I wonder if it will take until the March EC meeting for May to learn this reality? And since talks have only made sufficient progress because the EU wanted that to be the case, the 3 areas requiring sorting for an exit agreement have not been dealt with at all. Meeting financial commitments seems done, and there is not too much gap on citizen rights. But it all collapses on the Irish border which is not anywhere near solved. All May has on that is fairy tale thinking. With only 8mths of talks left before ratification this could still crash the whole thing and there is no transition. The exit agreement and any transition requires Council, Commission and Parliament approval. The transition will see us submit to all EU rules and payments without any say but should help business relocate away from the UK before we finally leave the Single Market at midnight on 31 December 2020. Saving our economy is still possible but nobody in government can comprehend how to do it.

Planning and Theresa May are words that never go together. She has no plan which is why the EU keep asking her for our plans on any aspect of Brexit. The government and May are ignorant and totally deluded. Next week there will be some Brexit action but what we - the learned ones - are waiting for is the crash with reality May & Co have coming. The media idiots keep repeating May's stupidity in thinking that trade negotiations will start in May. Had anyone bothered to read the EU documents they would clearly see it stated that trade negotiations will only start once the UK is a 'third country', and this is March 2019! The stupid woman also thinks a 'deep and special' trade deal will be agreed by March 2019. Ignoring the lack of trade talks, there is no way any trade deal could be agreed by March 2019. the May also thinks the transition period from March 2019 to December 2020 is to implement the trade deal. It isn't as there won't be one, it is for trade talks to take place. cont'd

Add a levy to everything made from plastic. Wow! What a great idea but one which would have people vomiting with anger. The only way they could possibly get away with it is by using propaganda to mess with peoples conscience. To make us all feel oh so guilty for using the products that they provide us with. Decades ahead. They plan all this way in advance. Nothing but pure greed. NHS going private or nationalised? Something needs doing but who stands to gain? Work that out and you'll be able to guess correctly....This new plastic tax will help pay for the new railway electrification I guess. If they keep hiking prices, the economy will collapse, but then, that is what the elite are going to do both in Europe and the US. _ Guess that quote: "When we squeeze all we can out of the United States, it can dry up and blow away."

Just to give some perspective to that figure 8,000 square miles is roughly the size of Wales, or the Irish Sea. And 2,000 plastic 2 litre bottles, to keep it simple, would fill around 2 standard sized UK skips. ..... Also take note of the majority of rubbish on the beach pile. There are tree stumps, bricks, and lots of wood waste too, so plastics are probably less than 50% by volume. I don't see beaches piled with plastic when I visit, even in winter. More gets washed up after a storm ok, but then that's how the wind blows. It pushes floating waste across the ocean where it gathers on certain beaches which are prone. If it's that bad, then why exaggerate the claims by a factor of, well, millions? To get just a single 2 mile beach to look pretty well covered along the tideline with plastic bottles (nice and bulky) would take around 1,000 standard skips. ... I see this as just another way to add a tax to something extremely plentiful. Now that would make the govenment some serious cash!

But when you look back over the past 300 years at the damage done to society by the media, then I think we know where the change must take place..... By the way, I think, if you look very carefully you can see another pile of rubbish which has been collected almost out of shot. Next to the ramps for easy collection by the refuse collection team. If the problem is as terrible as we are being told then show us the evidence! One photo of collected rubbish turns me away from real and meaningful environmentalism. To take part in making a better world we need knowledge, education and evidence, not lies and deceit and twisted propaganda.... Just research if there was a storm over the past few days whenever you see a collection of beach based rubbish like this. You'll be surprised how often it collects this way after a storm. Now spread that same rubbish over 8,000 sq miles of sea and see how mush rubbish you find in a search. Just 2 plastic bottles in each sq mile of ocean is not a disaster!

Plastics are in the news again, with a photo showing what looks to me like someone tidied up a stretch of beach where this waste collect and dumped it there for collection. The beach 200 metres away looks as clean as a whistle. Same type of propagandist photo was shown before xmas showing a mass of floating plastics and other debris. I looked for other photo's of this huge mass of rubbish but could find none. Suspicious? Of course it is. That rubbish had collected at that one location due to a recent storm. The rest of the island was probably clean as the article didn't show any more evidence.

I don't buy it Gerry. May and her elitist chums had already planned for the UK to Brexit many years ago. They don't plan a year ahead like we do, they plan several decades ahead and have dozens of back up plans. All this confusion and debating is a smokescreen to make the electorate believe that they are trying really hard to make things work out alright. Let me give you an example. It is said by many social observers (and conspiracy theorists), that the elite, who own the banks and other financial institutions, have a dark side and finance arms deals and drugs supplies through money laundering. Most people would see that as typical David Icke scaremongering and far from any truth. Now go and Google HSBC money laundering and see what you find. >>> http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/business-18880269 <<<. ...and Mrs May? >>> https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2017/may/02/theresa-may-hsbc-chief-executive-8m-inequality <<< There's a dark and dirty side to all governments!

The UK is currently under a fog of delusion and it is all of our own making. From the top we have deluded PM who thinks she has achieved progress on Brexit and a legacy media who seem to be incapable of actually reading any documentation and so have no idea what they are talking about. the media rely on their prestige sources to inform them but since these sources are our dim and ignorant MPs, academics and think-tanks who can't think they learn nothing. Right from the start May handed control of the exit process to the EU by not having the faintest idea of what she was doing other than keep chanting 'deep and special'. We now know that it was her and Nick Timothy who made the disastrous decision to leave the Single Market - no input from cabinet or anyone who knows what they are talking about such as Ivan Rogers. Events will catch up with them as it becomes clear trade talks will not start until we have left the EU in March 2019 as is written in the EU Council documents.

I find all this much more interesting than silly multi-party politics, which is about as meaningful as trying to dry washing on a rainy day. Watch a video or two on YouTube showing people talking about jobs, recessions, wages, interest rates, inflation, housing, voting back in the 70s. If you shut your eyes you could easily be listening to people talking today. Nothing has changed. The same control factors, the same blood-sucking, fear-mongering elite keeping control of the farm animals. Watch over the next 20 years how Europe will be taken apart like an old machine being replaced by a much smaller, neater alternative. It has too much power as a union, so must be dismantled. Civil war in Spain? Highly likely. Berlin Wall demolished to begin weakening Germany. Lots of turmoil in the banking industry to cause financial instability which will weaken all the EU members and make them vulnerable to regime change. When it happens it will shock you to the core! WWI & II were just practise!

Along with the US, it has served it purpose and its usefulness is now arbitrary. They are just sharpened tools to be used if and when required, but their individual choice making is now redundant. The dumbed down population no longer has a voice and any rebellion will be quelled and swept aside in the pursuit of total control. Famous last words: "You'll do it our way, or the hard way..." and that's the way of it, and has always been that way. Just a few loose ends to tie up, and the stage will be set. The signs of coming societal collapse are already widespread. These signs in the past were followed by civilisation collapses, and empires ending abruptly. Maybe the coming ice age will be the trigger because it is chiselled in stone that we are now overdue for the next one. But the planet needs organising for the big sleep. Who will survive this one? To some people, back to the stone age is not an option e.g. GM crops? When the insects die off we will need alternatives to pollination...

Anyone brave enough to speak out is labelled "anti-??" and blackwashed as a crank and a fool. Just look at Piers and the way the Met Orifice and other mainstream sources label him a crank and try to discredit him at every opportunity. Look how the media protect and promote the likes of the Elite Al Gore. His close relatives own the media so he gets heard and Piers gets muffled. Thing is, this has been going on for many hundreds of years, using spies and an intelligence network to control the masses and protect the Elite. Britain was infiltrated and taken over through the back door (Scotland) way back in the 1100s. The systematic changes - using war and financial trip-wires - to alter the whole of Europe was perpetrated by the same elitist, globalist, power hungry people, who now control pretty much the whole of the western world. At the stage we are at, expect massive changes over the next 50 years. Mrs May and the EU are just a smokescreen. Europe is being broken for a reason!

Gerry.... thanks for clearing that up. I don't follow party politics as closely as I did back in the 90s so lost track and forgotten most meaningful things. Today I look at the very long term and big picture political goals of the Elite, and try to work out what the most likely future scenario is going to be so I can prepare as well as I can. All these seeds of confusion are not accidental. They are quite deliberate and created to cause as much fear and confusion as possible. There's a lot of info out there about the real, non-mainstream historic record, which makes very disturbing reading. It is said there are different levels of truth. I totally disagree. There are different levels of lies but there can be only one truth. There are endless stories relating to history, all slightly different and all contradictory. When you read about the real reasons for historic events and the detailed truth about those events everything else becomes obvious and suddenly makes sense.
