The most telling thing about the massive petition and the difference in remainers and leavers, is that so many of you are willing to sacrifice democracy to achieve your goal.
The thing is Ogri is that it is now almost three years since that referendum.
Every five years we elect a government, and interestingly enough we don’t keep electing the same government. People change their view every now and again and yes people can change their minds too.
In 2016 we were told that there would be, if we left the EU, and extra 350 million pounds in the UK to spend on the NHS, or schools or whatever we fancied.
That was a lie. We were also told that it would be easy. The easiest deal in history. That the EU would bend over backwards to give us everything we wanted.
Those were lies too. I could go on.
And as it turns out the very people who brought us BREXIT, now keep voting it down in the parliament. The very same people who told us, oh no, we won’t be leaving the single market or the customs union now tells us it must be a NO DEAL exit, and are once again are holding the country to randsom.
The truth is when we voted back in 2016, not only were we lied to, but nobody told us what BREXIT would be, and indeed we were miss-lead into believing we would still have full single market access. That is possible, but it’s not on offer.
Nobody mentioned Ireland and the fact that we are fully committed by the legally binding Good Friday agreement to maintaining an open border between north and south. There is no solution that would allow us to leave the customs union and keep that border open. There would have to be physical customs checks.
Today the deal is May’s deal. May’s deal decides nothing, it just kicks the can down the road. It allows us single market access, at a price, and leaves us to negotiate our way out of the EU over the next two years. The truth is it will leave this country paralysed negotiating BREXIT for a decade or more.
We now have a full constitutional crisis, and ironically the EU is now in charge setting the agenda.
We’ve just had the biggest petition in UK history and possibly the biggest ever demonstration in London. Why? Because people want an end to this.
We now know what the deal is. We can all see the deal and what it means. So it’s time to put it back to the people. There is nothing undemocratic whatsoever in doing so. So what is that you are sacred of? And the question, has to be;
May’s Deal
