The howling
paranoia demonstrated by Brexiteers, after the decision of three high court
judges, that parliament must vote on triggering Article 50, is a textbook
example of a nation in danger of being consumed by neo-fascism.
The irony
that such grotesque levels of hate and paranoia are being incited against the
so-called self-serving establishment elites, by such people as Rupert Murdoch (News
International), Dacre and The Rothermeres (Editor and proprietors of the Daily
Mail), the Barclay brothers (owners of the Telegraph), right-wing members of the
Tory party, and Nigel Farage (leader of the right-wing United Kingdom
Independence party), is beyond satire. These people are not anti-establishment
or anti-elitist. They are the self-serving establishment! They are the
self-serving elite!
Brexiteers
moan about being patronised and portrayed as uneducated by those who voted to
remain in the European Union, but when you have a situation where there are
calls by Brexiteers, for Nigel Farage to be given a peerage and become a member
of the House of Lords (the most establishment and elitist institution in
Britain, apart from the Monarchy), when he has built his political career by
attempting to portray himself as anti-establishment and anti-elitist, it’s
laughable. And those Brexiteers who believe Farage should be made a Lord and
cannot see him for the liar, fraud and fascist rabble rouser, that he is, deserve to be ridiculed and
laughed at for their utter hypocrisy and stupidity.
When Brexiteers
accuse anybody, who exercises their right to freedom of speech by
constructively pointing out the negative aspects of leaving the European Union
and, using facts and empirical evidence, point out how it could be to the
detriment of many mainly poor people, of being treasonous, or traitors, then
those Brexiteers can rightly expect to be treated with the disdain their
attitudes deserve. Or when British judges, who are just doing their jobs by carrying
out the letter of the law, are branded by a right-wing rag, masquerading as a
newspaper, as ‘enemies of the people’, then expect that newspaper to be called
out as the fascist supporting rag it is. Is that echoes of “hurrah for the
Black shirts” I hear, emanating out of Wapping? It would appear that the dark
clouds of fascism are yet again gathering above Britain.
Why are Brexiteers
so afraid of democracy? I thought they voted leave so that British sovereign
laws would be applied in British courts by British judges. Their wish has been
granted, yet because a judgement hasn’t gone their way, the Brexiteers cry foul
and scream victimhood. Again, if you act like paranoid, small-minded, infantile,
ill-thinking, irrational hypocrites, then expect to be treated in that manner.
I’ve known toddlers, who have been told they can’t have a biscuit until they’ve
eaten all their dinner, to be more reasonable and to have a better grip on
reality.
Why are Brexiteers
always so angry and furious? Last time I looked, they won the referendum, yet Brexiteers
seem to be in a constant state of rage. If we are not careful, the tragic
murder of Jo Cox will not be an exception, but a normality. Already, as a
nation, we are experiencing a massive increase in hate crimes. People attacking or killing others because
of their skin colour, or because they speak with an accent or in a foreign
tongue????? What has this country come to???? The people that perpetrated
these crimes are racist scum and shame Britain.
There is a
fault line developing in Britain which, if it is not addressed, will see
Britain descend into an inferno of hate and neo-fascism. This inferno is being
stoked by right-wing newspapers, radio presenters who are nothing more than
talentless self-interested hate preachers, and opportunistic politicians. Their
hate-filled ideologue is being poured into the ears of Brexiteers, many of whom
are happy to listen and are willing foot soldiers for neo-fascism. When a
Minister of the State, Sajid Javid, irresponsibly stokes the fires of
discontent, by openly questioning the impartiality of the British justice
system, you realise we are moving into dangerous times. Javid has shown himself to be just another opportunistic and populist politician. The way the Tory government are now parading
themselves as zealous Brexiteers, you would be forgiven for forgetting that
over two thirds of the party were avid Remainers. Javid
came across as a budding Asian Oswald Mosley.
My message
to Brexiteers is simple, Calm down. Crawl out of the dark and step into the
light. Do not worry. Britain is leaving the European Union. Your wet dreams
will come true. Parliament will vote in favour of triggering Article 50. If you
can name me more than twenty Members of Parliament (excluding Scottish
Nationalists), who will vote against the government, then I will show you a
group of MP’s who are either standing down at the next General Election, are happy
to commit political suicide, or represent a pro-remain constituency.
What
Brexiteers will have to accept, is that we are a parliamentary democracy and we
elect MP’s to represent us and to pass legislation on our behalf. They are
charged with upholding the Constitution and working in the best interests of the
nation, ‘the entire nation’. Britain
is not a dictatorship ruled over by Chairman May and her Politburo of
apparatchiks.
The sooner Brexiteers
realise it is not all about them and it’s not all a massive conspiracy, then
the sooner they can rid themselves of the giant persecution complex that
appears to be weighing them down, and then hopefully their victimhood, and
their hatred for anybody with an opposing view, will eventually subside.
It’s either
a grown up and rational discussion about what’s best for the country, or bring
on the Civil War.
Of course,
if Brexiteers feel so strongly about the judgement and things don’t go their
way in the Supreme Court, they could always take their case to the European
Court of Human Rights.
The homophobic Daily Heil.
Part of the
Daily Mail’s coverage of the High Court judgement involved the paper describing
one of the judges as ‘openly gay’. This is possibly one of the most disgusting
pieces of veiled homophobia I have seen printed for many a year.
Neo-Fascist Hate Trolls.
Below are
some of the online comments made about Gina Miller, one of the people that
brought the Brexit case to the High Court.
“someone kill her, put two behind her
ear and dump her with the rubbish”.
“anybody want to sign up and rape
her”.
“someone should stab the black
b&*ch”
“who’s going to help me rape this
b&*ch
“P&*S off back to that p&*s-pot
banana republic you came from, b&*ch”.
These
commenters are the willing foot soldiers of neo-fascism mentioned in the main
article of this blog. Proof they are not a fabrication of my addled mind.
