Brexit - Deselection - adaptation of a beautiful song


HOPES AND ASPIRATIONS FOR BREXIT


Goodbye to you my untrustworthy friends
We've known each other since I don't know when
Together we've climbed different hills and different trees
You've learned of love for the EUs failings
You've skinned our pockets and skinned our beliefs
Goodbye my friends it's not hard for you to leave
When all the time you’re in brexit denial
Now that spring is in the air
A pretty UK future can be seen everywhere
Think of us as we'll be there

We had no joy, we had no fun
We had seasons without the sun
But the hills that you climbed
Were just not from our time



Goodbye MPs please don't say a word
You and others are the black sheep of the family
You tried to teach us all the EU wrongs, claimed they were the only way
Too much of Junker’s wine and too much of Junker's song
Wonder how you ever got along
Goodbye Guys it's not hard to say
When all the birds are singing in the sky, you'll be gone
Now that the spring is in the air, coz you won't be their
Little children have a future everywhere
When you see them, we'll be there

We had no joy, we had no fun
We had seasons without the sun
But you had Junker’s wine and sang Junker's song
Like the seasons have all gone
We had no joy, we had no fun
We had seasons without the sun
But you had Junker’s wine and sang Junker's song
With you it was like the seasons have all gone


Goodbye MPs you are the devious ones
You gave us fear and hid the sun
And every time you put us down
You would always come around
And sweep our feet from on the ground
Goodbye Members you need to see,
All the birds are singing in the sky
Now that the spring is in the air
With the flowers everywhere
We're pleased you four won't be there!

Brexit - Feb 25th Delay really Why? Blair's A Brexiteer


Several headlines captured me this morning. That's my morning as l’m slightly North of Australia.  The one that concerns me the most is of course the possibility of delaying Brexit. Another which is of significance was an article I read on Linkedin. The article referred to the businesses that are struggling due to uncertainty.  They just need that we get on with it and leave, if it's no deal they can plan accordingly.  As I've pointed out in previous papers that I've written, 90% of our manufactured goods go outside of the EU (88% directly out with a further 2% entering the EU and then leaving via Rotterdam), yet we have to apply EU regulation across the board.

The terms that we will trade on need to be clarified and planned accordingly.  The MPs that are frustrating this process are no friend of the British people and should be removed. We are now at a point where a further delay is unacceptable.  With an oncoming recession this could do irretrievable harm to corporate UK.  The EU has been a sick segment of the world for far too long. Their collective growth since 2008 have been poor to say the least, they, the Euro zone have averaged a little over 2% in 9 years. The UK 8.8%, the USA 14.4%. If you show Germany they are at 7.6%, France 4.6%, Greece minus 27%.



Our exports to the EU have underperformed the exports from WTO countries. Businesses need clarity. Are we in are we out? To delay just drops a fog over the British Isles and the United Kingdom.  Soon the remainers will have their way and be able to prove Brexit will have damaged the economy. Yet it's not Brexit that will damage it, it is they! We are where the remainers want us to be! We should have no patience with this.

I also read an article in the Daily Telegraph written by Boris. He refers to the labels that are applied to us Brexiteers. Zealots, Xenophobic, Racist and so on.  That somehow unless you're right wing with fascists tendencies you would want to remain in the EU. Boris makes an excellent point that Tony Blair was a fervent Brexiteer (Although my gut tells me that was him telling us what we wanted to hear in order that he gets his way winning the highest office in the land.  It is also not beyond the realm of being possible that he is angling for Junker's job, but of course we have to remain.  History will go full circle!). But, nonetheless Boris refers to many other lefties that have expressed dis-satisfaction with the EU.



I for one can not be labelled in such terms.  My business is in Asia, it focuses on Indonesia in particular. I stand ready to support Corporate UK to establish a presence in the soon to be 5th largest economy. Who, incidentally trades with the EU on WTO. My wife is a legal and financial expert, and she is Asian. My partners are Asian some are mixed and from many religious beliefs. To label Brexiteers this way is to do the UK an injustice, it is also an insult to our seafaring ancestry.

The facts are clear, regulation is absurd. Tariffs are ridiculous 50% on some dairy products, 30% on others reducing to 18% in some cases.  This is a tax on the people of the UK. It is a tax that benefits Europe and not us Brits!

Leave, and do it on March the 29th at 11pm. Take no nonsense from these vested self interested politician's. A delay is appalling behaviour.

Remainers Talisman Affection For The Single / Union


Single market, eu, brexit

I’ve tried hard to find any evidence that shows why Nick Clegg, Sir John Major, Tony Blair, Nicola Sturgeon, et al., believe that being in the single market is so important. Indeed, their belief is so strong they are prepared to break the union up. Yet they provide no supporting evidence as to why they believe it!.

Even representatives of our business community race to support our membership, yet they too are incapable of providing data to support their claims. Their only reason is we export a lot to Europe as though this will die after we leave. This is rubbish it would be a serious act of sabotage on the EU part if they stopped selling their cars, cheese, wine etc., into the UK. Only a petulant child would harm themselves in such a way.

Indeed, there is plenty of evidence out there that shows being a member of the single market has been exceedingly negative to the UK. I’ve said before WTO countries exports to the EU have grown significantly more than the UK exports to the EU.



Sure the single market in some areas has been a success, it has united 28 Countries into a single trading block. Margaret Thatcher pushed through the idea of a single market on the basis that it would unite and reduce regulation. If you look at the Cecchini report produced in 1988 it was incredibly optimistic about the single market, Predicting a 6.5% - 7% GDP increase over the first 5years.

Cecchini report - exert from the exec summary 1988 The Commission today revealed the results of a major study which It commissioned to
evaluate scientifically the benefits of the single market. This study which will shortly be published In book form provides the hard evidence, the confirmation of what those who are engaged In building Europe have always known: that the failure to achieve a single market has been costing European Industry dearly In unnecessary costs and lost opportunities; that the completion of the Internal market will provide the economic context for the regeneration of European Industry In both goods and services; and that It will give a permanent boost to the prosperity of the people of Europe. Cecchini report 1988

Even its ardent supporters had to admit it was overly optimistic. In fact all data shows that being a member of both the single market and customs union have provided the UK with a net loss. Yet scraggly politicians and business organizations all espouse sagely that we must continue our membership. My only conclusion they really don’t understand the market at all.



In fact to go one step further:

Roger Bootle has likened their fascination, talisman type reverence to the single market like that of the dying days of the soviet empire.

“Muttering support for the Single Market has become rather like, during the dying years of the Soviet Union, mouthing ritualistic quotes from Marx about the inevitable triumph of Communism - things you just repeat because that’s what you have always done and it’s what everybody else does, without ever questioning their relation to reality”.

Brexit - Treason, Fascism snaps at our door Asia beckons!


It's Time We Called Time On The EU


It's time we called this for what it is. Treasonous behaviour! We should not forget the behaviour of the 400 MPs plus Blair and his entourage that have tried so hard to disrupt the Brexit process. This has held us back for over two years. During a period when Asia is establishing with billions being spent on infrastructure.



The EU under Junker, Tusk with Barnier and Verhofstadt is a failed project. Autocratic monolithic monster destroying all in its path. For the sake of those countries that remain we should not embellish their coffers in order that they wreak more havoc on the remaining 27.

The youth of the south have suffered enough. If we allow this EU folly to continue we will have fascism again in Europe and on our doorstep.

Italy has now stepped out of line and looking to trade with the UK, more will do the same! What's sad, is we have had to wait for the ranks to break all because of our devious MPs constantly giving hope to their EU masters.

We have lost 2.5 years on this it's enough! 


Mrs May has tried hard to hide her deeds, to change the result! On June 23rd we came to a fork in the road. The electorate were delegated to, they chose 'leave'. To her credit at first she showed her willingness to take the right road defined by us. Since, she has constantly looking for rat runs to return to the status quo.

No deal is fine we apply CET and negotiate FTA's with the rest of the world. At the end we the UK consumer will have cheaper food and the EU will lose market share!

Pay only for the projects we are part of, get title deeds for the buildings and infrastructure we own and let's move on. Trade with those that want to. Stick tariffs under WTO on those that don’t.  But move on we must!

  • Yvette Cooper

DOMINIC GRIEVE, ANNA SOURBY, BLAIR
Proud of yourself.
The list continues Clarke, Clegg, Adonis.  Blair should not get a penny from the state going forward.  Which ever side of the divide you are on these guys have undermined our democracy and our way of life!

We are not crashing out! We are not at a cliff edge! We are not little Englanders and we are not stupid. March the 30th will look exactly like March 29th but the future will be brighter.  History will show how we have mapped a brighter future for those that have tried so desperately to sabotage our future. They should be ranked among the communist shop stewards such as Red Robbo a man responsible for 523 strikes, who brought down our industrial manufacturing base of the 70s!

Brexit Duplicity reigns supreme



The Daily Telegraph have today run a story; re the Cabinet Ministers who are insisting on a Free Vote over the issue of no deal.  The deputy protagonist, of course not the Chief as that is a mantle that Philip Hammond holds.

Voters in Hastings have elected to leave the European Union. 
The Brexit campaign edged a 4,328-vote victory. 
20,011 remain in the EU and 24,339 leave. 
37 votes rejected. 
Hastings saw a 71.6% turnout, 

MP Amber Rudd 

The duplicity displayed in this cabinet, this government and these parties is beyond belief. Never before has there been an opportunity for a new party to emerge.  A party that could easily and quickly gain so much traction. Conservatives were founded in 1834, their 1st leader the Rt Hon Robert Peel. Of course the Tory's had held a place in British Politics since the 16c.



I haven't mentioned Labour's roots as I believe the harm done to them is 10 fold, the labour party has been hijacked by what appears as Stalinist henchmen. You only have to look at the way in which they are attacking Fiona Bruce to understand the path they are taking.

My point with this blog is not to dwell on the detail above.  Perhaps that's a subject for another day. Fascinating that it is!

We entered the EU in 1973. It was Ted Heath that took us into what was known as the common market (EEC).  However, let's be clear the EEC had since its inception a plan to unify Europe in to a form of United States of Europe.

“On its very first official publication in Luxembourg on 8 October 1970, the 'Report to the Council and the Commission on the realization by stages of economic and monetary union in the Community' also bore the short title the 'Werner Report'.”

In 1973 the above mentioned report was hidden from our parliament during the various parliamentary debates re. our ascension to the Common Market, effectively taking us into the EEC on a lie. However, this was later rectified.  In 1975, we had a referendum on whether to leave or remain.  A pamphlet was produced and passed to every household outlining exactly the EEC intent. We voted to remain (funny how we had no further recriminations).



To put this into context the 1970s became known as our darkest decade. The Unions held this country to ransom throughout this period.  Not because of their desire to improve working conditions for their many members, more their need to drive the UK policies closer to their paymasters in the USSR. That was the 1970s! Hence, our membership was ratified, I suspect as a way to escape the Industrial strife.

In a bizarre twist we seem to have gone full circle and this we must be mindful.  This must not happen, our country must not be hijacked by either ends of the spectrum. However, remaining in the EU as it is currently structured is not the answer.

A new party must emerge perhaps under the guise of populism. But emerge it must.
