Who’s Profiting from Brexit??

Posted on by Opher

Rees-Mogg is set to make millions out of Brexit – that’s who!!

https://ftalphaville.ft.com/2018/02/08/2198570/jacob-rees-moggs-huge-personal-windfall-after-brexit/

How many others of the extreme Tory ERG are set to make a killing out of this fiasco!! Who knows??? Perhaps they all will???

Talk about vested interests!! Have they declared their interests?? This smacks of cynical profiteering to me!!

So while the rest of the country gets poorer and people crash out of jobs, firms move abroad or go bust, and we have decades more of austerity and poor public services, the wealthy are making a killing!!!

It is DISGUSTING!!!!

Brexit the tragedy! Tory Tyranny! How to destroy a country!

Posted on by Opher

Here we go!! The pound crashing, the economy heading for recession after crawling along for three years, while the extreme Brexiteers are steering us for the rocks.

Johnson, in desperation, is promising bribes for public servants after eleven years of Tory misrule has created mass crises.

There’s an election looming as DEMOCRACY CRASHES!!!

So much for democracy!! We don’t get to vote for a PM!! We don’t get to vote on the EU Deal (or No Deal)!! And Johnson is after shoving it through even if there is a vote of no confidence!!  Some democracy we have here!! This tastes like Tory Tyranny!!

Brexit – Project Fear is real!

Posted on by Opher

Project Fear was always real. It was merely people telling us what will happen if we follow this course. Brexit has already cost us a staggering £66 Billion and is costing us more by the day. Another couple of billion wasted on planning for a no deal today (£2 Billion!! wasted!!). Armies of solicitors and bureaucrats. Thousands more unproductive civil services. Our schools, hospitals, police, social services, courts, prisons, roads, councils, mental health have all been run down and are in crisis. If Brexit goes through this will all get much worse.

If we had not voted for Brexit we would all now be prospering and our public services would not be in this chaos.

Project Fear is all too real and is already happening. It’s going to get a lot worse!

This is what will happen if the extreme right-wingers get their way:

A substantial number of businesses become uneconomic

Firms crashing

Companies pulling out of Britain

Many losing their jobs

House prices crashing

Pay going down

The economy takes a hit and goes into recession

Shortages of food

Shortages of medicines

Huge queues at ports

Armies of bureaucrats

Armies of solicitors

Armies of border guards carrying out unnecessary bureacracy

Tariffs on imports and exports

Prices of goods rise

The pound crashing

Holidays cost much more

Travel is much harder with more bureaucracy, visas, hold ups

Riots and looting

Civil unrest with the army being deployed to keep order

Years of austerity for ordinary people

Millionaires making a killing from the chaos.

Britain’s power and standing diminished.

 

Brexit has already cost this country £66 Billion!

 

Project Fear was real! It is already happening.

 

Brexit will cost the country £150- £200 Billion a year! That’s the reality!

 

Is this what you voted for?

How much has Brexit already cost us?

Posted on by Opher

Britain has already paid an enormous price for the chaos of the Brexit vote.

£66 Billion already!!

So much for all the lies about how much money it was going to save us!! And £66 Billion is just the beginning!!

We haven’t left yet!

While our schools, hospitals, police, courts, welfare, mental health, social services, infrastructure, and just about everything else, is in crisis we have squandered £66 Billion on more solicitors, bureaucrats and government crap. We have wasted it.

Just think what we could have done with £66 Billion!

This is just the tip of the iceberg. A No Deal Brexit will make that sum look like peanuts!

I hope all those people would voted for this nonsense are going to reimburse the rest of us for what they have cost us? I hope they think that impoverishing the country, causing decades of austerity and weakening Britain is worth it?

I look forward to receiving a cheque – though I doubt that’ll happen; they won’t admit to how they’ve been duped! And Boris will never own up and take responsibility for the mess he has created!!

No Deal Brexit – No Mandate!!

Posted on by Opher

I’m listening with complete fury and impotence as the imbeciles who are leading us take us down a road to a No Deal Brexit that will both crash our economy and reduce our power.

As firm after firm pulls out of Britain and so many others move a portion of their staff abroad we are in great danger of strangling ourselves.

There is no mandate for a No Deal Brexit.

The Referendum resulted in a split country. 52% of the population voted for Brexit. Back then nobody knew there were lots of different types of Brexit.

Nobody knew they were voting to leave the Customs Union or Single Market. Brexit never meant Brexit.

I think a majority of the population would have preferred a soft Brexit in which we left the EU but retained the trading arrangements. It seems to me that there are people who, for ideology reasons, want some narrow definition of Nationalism and would crash the economy in order to get it.

It looks like Johnson is after leaving the EU to become the 51st State of the USA.

It looks like a lot of turkeys voted for Christmas.

What infuriates me most is rabid extremists telling me all the things that they believe people voted for. It was a binary vote. Nobody can tell, particularly on such a narrow vote, why people voted or what they really voted for.

Trump’s Poodle takes office!!

I love chlorinated chicken and growth hormones!

England (once of the United Kingdom but now on its own) becomes the 51st State of America!! All hail King Trump!!!

As King Trump and Prince Farage show the new boy around (and Rasputin Steve Bannon (the ultra-fascist) pulls the strings).

My New Tory Leadership bid!

Posted on by Opher

I am afraid my first bid floundered! But, as with all failures, one has to assess what has gone wrong and put it right.

My second bid is likely to be much stronger. I have thoroughly analysed the situation and realised that I was not focussed on my target group – the 160,000 Tory membership.

The country doesn’t count. All that is important is appealing to this tiny minority of extremists. It doesn’t matter what happens next. All that is important is impressing these few people and getting into power.

With that in mind I have put together a new manifesto! I think it’s a winner!

If elected I will:

  1. Stop all immigration.
  2. Kick out anybody who looks, sounds or could possibly be an immigrant.
  3. Ban Islam.
  4. Bomb foreigners – all foreigners!
  5. Abolish tax for everybody earning over £50,000
  6. Double the pay of all bankers and executives
  7. Abolish corporation tax
  8. Make socialism a crime
  9. Do away with all social welfare
  10. Make poverty a crime punishable by hanging!
  11. Bring back hanging (mass hanging as a public spectacle!!)
  12. Ban foreign languages in schools
  13. Arm the police with a shoot to kill policy for all crimes
  14. Do away with courts
  15. Make 10 years conscription compulsory
  16. Leave the EU by July 20th and nuke Brussels!

There!! Let Hunt and Johnson try to outdo that!

That will provide incentive and get Britain back to the top – show Johnny Foreigner that we mean business!!

Brexit – damaging the country!!

Posted on by Opher

The madness of Brexit is already costing us billions. It has already added years of austerity! Our growth is well down! Britain is being dismantled by Tory madness.

Ford

Honda

British Steel

Dyson

How many more jobs are lost to Brexit? How many more companies are fleeing abroad?

How many more high-paid workers will find themselves stacking shelves or delivering parcels for Amazon on zero contracts?

The ones who voted Brexit are the ones who will suffer most!

People like Rees-Mogg have already moved their wealth abroad and are making a killing out of this!

All we need now is a No-Deal Brexit and Britain is down the tubes!

Goodbye Theresa May!!

Posted on by Opher

Goodbye Theresa May!!

And over to the Rabid Right-Wing extremists!!!
It seems that ineptitude and incompetence were not the requisites for high office!
Who’d have thought it!!

Dead as a Duck

They won’t support the vicar’s daughter
Theresa May is dead in the water!
The rabid right with have its way!
On your bike Mrs May!

Unleashing the dogs of Nationalism
Set free the terrors of tribalism.
Cameron and Osbourne put party first
Now the Right for blood does thirst!

They’ve torn the country from bow to stern.
They don’t care and don’t seem to learn.
Mogg and Boris with fight it out!
Power is what it is all about!

Mrs May you chose the wrong way!
Inclusive is best – you threw it away!
Appeasing the nutters was never gonna work!
They made you look like a complete berk!

So Theresa May you’ve had your day!
You’ve thrown the whole country into the fray!
We’re all to hell in a handcart!
Watch as they pull us all apart!

Tory fools what were you thinking?
What mad potions have you been drinking?
It was ideology over common sense!
We’ll all be paying in a lot more than pence!

So long Theresa May!
I can hear the dogs bay.
They’re coming to rip
They’re coming to tear
Mrs May – you’d better beware!

What have you done?
What have you all done?
Stupidity rules
While you’ve been having fun.

The EU was the Achilles heel.
On our future it’s put the seal!
Rosy spectacles and outdated views
Destroying Britain so we all lose.

Trump’s Euro Vision!!

Posted on by Opher

While this made me laugh it is tragic!!

The far-right is setting the agenda.

The wave of populist propaganda is dividing the world!

From the obnoxious merchant banker Farage to the Neo-Nazis, all over Europe – the far-right spreads its hate, fear and division.

It’s time we promoted peace, understanding, tolerance, compassion, unity and togetherness!!
