He said that it wouldn’t surprise him if the “Blair creature” didn’t end up as it’s president in the future.

The question that should’ve been put to the people around 1990 was.....”Are you willing to be a part of a federal state ( losing individual sovereignty ) and being ruled by a non elected elite?

We have been stitched up by career politicians of both sides signing up to treaties that had no withdrawal terms written into them.

No businessman would’ve signed those treaties,only complete imbeciles with no nous or business acumen.
That is so true Mick. Tony Benn said that all politicians are nothing more than custodians entrusted to safeguard our constitution until they get democratically removed then it’s the turn of the next ones. He said that all you do is to be entrusted to steadily hold the reins so to speak and that those politicians like Blair that handed powers over to Europe were wrong as they were never theirs to give away in the first place as our constitution belongs to the people not politicians. Major was another half wit who signed the Maastricht Agreement before famously saying ‘I’d better read it now’.

It’s ironic that so many remoaners are on about lies being told by the Leave team when the whole county was blatantly lied to and the real direction of the EU was withheld from the public by the government of the time and the EU prior to the vote to join as cabinet records released under the 30 year rule now prove.
