An exit to self-determination

August 4, 2016   ·   0 Comments

The United Kingdom has decided to leave the European Union. British Prime Minister David Cameron resigns and is quickly replaced by Theresa May. Nigel Farage, leader of the UK Independence Party steps down, stating his ‘political ambition has been achieved,’ and German Chancellor Angela Merkel is shocked.

Really? Shocked? If ever there was a case of world leaders being out of touch with their citizens, this was it.

Let’s go back and have a look at the way it is supposed to work. In a democracy, people are elected and are supposed to represent their citizens based on the needs and will of the people.

Instead, the leaders of Europe decided that they know better and will decide what is right for the country, whether the people like it or not.  Even when polls indicated that leaders were making decisions contrary to public opinion and interest, they continued to do the opposite, much to the anger of ordinary people who will, as always, pay the price of stupid decisions made by politicians.

It is times like these that citizens begin talking of adopting a law where you can ‘fire’ your leader by public vote if they do not perform as the electorate requests.

As a prime example of the arrogance of European politicians, a British legislator named David Lammy demanded Parliament should ‘stop the madness’ and overturn the results of the referendum to leave the EU.    

When you’ve got a politician in a democratic country calling for parliament to overturn a vote by the public because he doesn’t like the results, you’ve got a huge problem. His constituents have no other option than demand he resign immediately. Regardless of their political leanings, they should demand he leave, because next time it may be their vote he tries to dismiss.

The European Union has taken a great blow with the pending exit of the UK. It will likely begin an era of political instability in Europe. This may be just the first nation to leave. Most likely more will follow. And you can’t blame them.

If you want to find out what is really going on in Europe, forget the mainstream media and news feeds that whitewash the reality of what is happening. Even our own CBC is rife with politically correct news that eliminates actual facts when reporting news in their politically correct fashion and Britain’s BBC is just as guilty of churning out left wing propaganda.                                                                                            

To see what’s really going on you have to look deeper than Reuters and its contemporaries. While the EU headquarters in Brussels continues to play with human lives and identity, the feeling in the UK was they had lost control of their own country.

How is it a foreigner in Brussels is dictating what Great Britain will do? How is it a foreigner in Brussels is changing the face of British cities and towns while not giving the residents there a say in their own destiny?

How is it the so-called ‘ruling class’ in Britain seem to think they speak for everyone else? The most effective propagandists of the “European ideal” have not been the far right, but an insufferably patrician class for whom metropolitan London is the United Kingdom.

It is the citizens of the UK rejecting the destiny designed for them by this elite group that is demanding Britons change their ways and bend to the whims of others. For once, the citizens of the UK are saying ‘this is OUR country, and we will decide what happens here.’

The mood of discontent in Europe doesn’t stop in the UK. The citizens of Poland, Hungary, Germany, France, Italy, and the list goes on, are tired of this current onslaught of forced migration by the elitists who demand local residents accommodate others by changing their culture.                                                                                                       

The big questions is why are these leaders determined to destroy their own culture, and what will they benefit. You can be sure they aren’t doing it just for the good of mankind.                                                       

One town in Germany suddenly doubled its population from 1,200 to 2,200 when 1,000 migrants were dropped there. The town was overrun by a camp where violence is commonplace and no one worked.

The media has downplayed or not reported crimes committed against locals. Once again, you have to go beyond the news feeds to see the truth.     Perhaps the UK leaving the EU is the first step in Europeans once again taking control of their countries and their destiny.

The next step is to remove the elitists from power. Britain has been a leader in the world for centuries and continues to be a powerhouse in influence and economy.

Leaving the EU may have some short-term repercussions, but in the long run they will survive just fine.
