Anybody who wants to say EU=Soviet Union is unusually uneducated and just regurgitating Hard Brexiteer loony websites. Dim.

Well, but please don't blame him for having got no education and a low IQ. 

Unfortunately these people are the fodder for all populists.

No begging required as the EU has us in exactly the place they and their British Remainers want us. Still a member and still contributing!!

They would have cut us off last week if they did not need the 9 billion annually. Guardian and Mail say they will offer a 12 month ‘flextension’ while the Daily Express says up to 5 years.

Nonsense. The brexit negotiations cost UK every month already 100 million, lost in trades and investments. And this over a long period. 

So what is good about brexit? 

To eat only cheddar and haggis?

Thanks..but I'm very much a down to earth kind of person..and non pc..I also see the world as it is..not the way many people see it.
Cheers and have a great day.

Surely, there is no such thing as Conspiracy Theory.

This is confirmed by an article in the INDEPENDENT.

 

We already know that AI can be used to manipulate

public opinion. Massive swarms of political bots were

used in the 2017 general election in the UK to spread

misinformation and fake news on social media. The

same happened during the US presidential election in

2016 and several other key political elections around

the world.

 

These bots are autonomous accounts that are programmed

to aggressively spread one-sided political messages to

manufacture the illusion of public support. This is an

increasingly widespread tactic that attempts to shape

public discourse and distort political sentiment.

Typically disguised as ordinary human accounts, bots

spread misinformation and contribute to an acrimonious

political climate on sites like Twitter and Facebook. They

can be used to highlight negative social media messages

about a candidate to a demographic group more likely to

vote for them, the idea being to discourage them from

turning out on election day.

No Conspiracy here, just government business as usual.

In principle the EU is a great institution, but needs major reform, the reasons why 52% voted to leave are many fold and I wanted to see us remain and tackle the bureaucracy and inequalities from within.  

 

I think that was Cameron’s idea. But as we all know, he failed. The real power lays in the hands of those unelected Bureaucrats in Brussels, and certainly not with the people.

I can guarantee you that, if the Queen were to put her position to the vote, she would certainly gain a vast majority, as for this European tin pot, very few.

According to the 'Independent' this is how governments

control the sheeple.  Since the UK governments aim is

to 'remain', it follows that it is the 'remainers' generally

who have been manipulated.

Sorry to burst your bubble but that doesn't change this simple fact:

 

UK population: 67 mill.

EU population: 450 mill.

 

Game, set and match: EU 

The UK is a major contributor to the EU with a 12% funding . You quote population , well that has zero effect on the success of the EU . Germany, France , Italy and the UK make up 60% of the EU contributions and the rest of the 24 countries fund the 40 % . So the Brexit will leave a gaping whole in the EU budget that will have to be filled by the remaining 27 . BTW , Germany is not in a good economical position to make any further monetary support as it only just avoided going into recession and their growth forecast is not good . Their export market is in decline but at the moment the lowest unemployment in the EU , 2.4 % , however that can change very soon as manufacturing slows and a surplus of labour will lead to a preference of cheap labour mostly sourced from the recent wave of immigration . That will infuriate the right wing of German politics . If Germany cracks that will be the end of the EU in its current form . Hence the need to keep the UK in the club . TM must play an awful game of poker and was / is  clearly the wrong person at the helm . The feeling of the UK public is one of distrust of the government and this event still has a long way to run . Do not dismiss the UK public as their voices and demonstrations start to escalate . Finally , how can TM continue to say  "  the referendum vote was to leave the EU and that is what I am delivering " , nothing could be further than the truth . In the mean time the UK will continue to make contributions , so extensions will probably be welcome unless Macron is true to his word .

Readers slightly bemused at the EU=Soviet Union garbage peddled by our friendly Conspiracy Theory Hard Brexiteers will be at least amused at the attached junk documentary linked to above. Produced by Martin Durkin, not only formerly associated with the uber fruitcakes of the Revolutionary Communist Party, but leading anti-green, anti-global warming campaigner. Nutters. All of them.

I’ll give you a tip. When you’re presented with documentary evidence, quotes and videos, concentrating on the poster and source instead of content means you have no counter argument.

The ball is in your court. You now have to find evidence that the EU is democratic, countries are benefiting from membership, open borders and mass third world immigration have worked and the UK benefits from paying billions a year to be ruled from Brussels and how it ever managed without it.

Now, please rise for the gullible EU national anthem and no laughing please. ????

A lot of remainers have this same misunderstanding. A lot of people voted Remain for these sorts of reasons. I.e. thinking that if we leave the EU we won't be able to eat pasta anymore, we won't be able to go on holiday in Spain etc. 

 

Just to reassure you, when (if) we finally manage to leave the EU we will still be able to eat produce from other countries.

You see you are already repeating the nonsense of "unelected" 

UK took part in EU elections for EU parliament. So all members are elected.
