Recently European Comr. for Agriculture, Dacion Ciolos, has said, "any business that relies upon subsidies (grants, tax breaks) is NOT A REAL BUSINESS." (Oh dear, that's practically every Third Sector set up!)
In the early hours of the 24th June 2016 the town of Sunderland at the mouth
of the River Wear in the North East of England, famed for shipbuilding and
glass manufacture, announced that in the UK’s Referendum the
Leave vote had
exceeded the Remain vote by 22% – when the expected margin had been only 6 or 7%.
Sunderland had spoken, the anti-fascists had spoken. The result was that
freedom and democratic sovereignty were restored to the British people.
The voters of Sunderland had defied the once socialist but now corporatist
Labour Party who regarded them as their personal fiefdom, they had defied the
great local employer NISSAN who had always threatened them with job losses if
they voted to leave the European Union and they defied the catastrophically
incompetent and manipulating “opinion polls” and the placing of heavy money
against a Leave vote by the schoolboy spivs who gamble on currencies for profit
in the (also catastrophically incompetent) City of London.
In other words in Sunderland – as in many Conservative areas of the country
– the voters had attacked and defeated that unholy alliance between the
authoritarian pseudo intellectual left and the corporatist right who combined
in their mutual hatred of communities, nations, cultures, sovereign
democracies, free trade and the rule of law in their conspiracy to create a
world of supranational corporate fascist power.
Big business and big government, together with the self declared
“progressive left”, despised individuals and their votes, traditional family
structures, entrepreneurs and small businesses serving communities like
Sunderland.
As in the 1930s and 1940s, there are today in ALL the “major” political
parties both corporatist fascists and their opponents – the democratic
sovereigntists and anti fascists. In the 1930s the Tory Party had many appeasers
and sympathisers with Nazi Germany and fascist Italy. Sir Samuel Hoare was
thrown out of Government and went to live in Spain where he conspired with
fascists and local representatives of Hitler to make peace with Germany by
removing Winston Churchill.
The Labour Party repeatedly voted against re-armament against Hitler in the
1930s and called Churchill a “warmonger” and the socialist Lord Allen of
Hurtwood said that Britain should help Hitler get Germany’s fair share of
colonies!
The former Liberal Prime Minister David Lloyd George was such an admirer of
Hitler that he said he was “the greatest living German and it is a pity there
are not more like him in Britain”.
The left wing BBC kept Churchill off the air for much of the 1930s and their
General Manager Lord Reith was an admirer of Hitler while the Federation of
British industry (now the CBI) was making agreements with Nazi industry in mid
1939 – after Hitler’s march into the Rheinland, after the attack on
Czechoslovakia, after the Krystallnacht attacks on Jewish businesses and after
the Nuremberg Race laws. (For more evidence of fascism then and now see my
books And into the Fire, Europe’s Full Circle and Fascist Europe Rising.)
So there is nothing new about these corporatist fascist bodies supporting the
end of democracy and the promotion of supranational corporate power. They are,
as they were then, backed by many of our “intellectual” classes whose
experience of life is confined to a State or corporate funded desk and lecture
hall, divorced from those impoverished by their academic “solutions”. They
periodically produce lists of hundreds of signatures to demands or
condemnations of Government policy – and they are virtually always wrong.
They were wrong about the Gold Standard in the 1930s.
They were wrong about the Common Market in 1972 (they just lied about its
destruction of democratic parliamentary Government)
They were wrong about Margaret Thatcher’s monetarism in the early 1990s (a
long period of growth resulted)
They were wrong about the European Exchange Rate Mechanism (causing 3m
unemployed)
They were wrong about the Euro (25m unemployed in the EU)
And of course they will be proved wrong about Brexit.
BLOOMBERG WILL FLOURISH
Already within 48 hours of the decision to leave the EU a major international
employer, Bloomberg, continues active recruitment in London. ”We employ nearly
4,000 staff in the U.K., which is home to many of our major clients. And our
new London headquarters will open next year. We will be in London for the long
haul.”
J P MORGAN WITHDRAWS THREAT
AS the Referendum approached Jamie Dimon of JP Morgan threatened his UK
employees: “After a Brexit we cannot do it all here and we will have to start
planning for that. I don’t know if it means 1,000 jobs, 2,000 jobs – it could
be many as 4,000, and they will be jobs all around the UK.”
But after the vote this arch corporatist had a different tone. He wrote: “J.
P. Morgan has 16,000 employees in the U.K. We are extremely proud of the work
they do and our long history in the country. Regardless of today’s outcome, we
will maintain a large presence in London, Bournemouth and Scotland, serving
local clients as we have for more than 150 years. In the months ahead, however,
we may need to make changes to our European legal entity structure and the
location of some roles.”
OSBORNE WITHDRAWS THREAT
And George Osborne the British Chancellor of the Exchequer, having predicted
economic disaster and an emergency budget if the British voted Leave, now says
the UK is ready to face the future “from a position of strength” and indicated
there will be no immediate emergency Budget. And these are the kind of people
who have been making critical economic and political decisions about Britain
and the EU for decades! Is it any wonder chaos reigns?
Such is the disgraceful state of affairs in so called “democratic” societies
when the people have to ignore those who have all the power and all the money
in order to find out the truth. And they have to found new parties to stop the
left right and centre’s cartel of power. That cartel had adopted the same basic
philosophy and thus ensured that a vote is powerless to change anything.
Sunderland was right. The British people were right. Even many who voted
“Remain” might now find out what the REAL issues are – although they will have
to fight the censorship of the “mainstream media” and listen instead to the
more respectable parts of the internet and youtube – and their friends, family
and local businesses in their own communities.
The people of Britain are about to become the next victims of the
‘Coloured Revolution’ tactics used by Washington and Brussels against
democratically elected governments from Serbia to Syria, from Ukraine to
Brazil.
Within a few days of the British electorate’s totally unforeseen
(including by this author!) grass-roots decision to defy Establishment bullying
and waves of MSM propaganda to vote for Brexit, the counter move of the
globalists is already becoming clear.
First, a concerted attack on sterling and leading shares to apply
financial pressure and justify the self-fulfilling prophesies of gloom and doom
of the defeated Remain camp.
Second, massive psychological pressure organised by ‘civil society’
organisations, such as Avaaz masquerading as grass-roots social media protests
but in fact funded by Foundations financed by George Soros. The spear-point of
this propaganda campaign is at present the petition for a Second Referendum,
which has already passed the three million mark, even when tens of thousands of
bogus signatures have been identified and removed.
Third, the use of other ‘civil society’ groups, including SumOfUs and 38
Degrees, to conducted rolling polls of ‘progressive’ public opinion so as to
ascertain which themes and attacks on Brexit will be the most effective. This
is a key technique taught in ‘color revolution’ training course modelled on the
proposals of Gene Sharp and now honed by John Carlane, liberal globalist former
British Army officer turned head of the Peace Education and Training
Repository.
Fourth, the mobilisation of crowds of angry and clearly violence-prone
protesters in London and other key cities. Despite the fact that many on the
British far-left campaigned for Brexit, gangs carrying Communist and anarchist
flags are out on the streets. They are supposedly to defend ethnic minorities
(many of whom in fact voted alongside their indigenous working class
counterparts for Brexit) but have already been involved in attacks on known or
suspected Brexiteers.
Fifth, the CIA/liberal elite’s retained propaganda corps of
bought-and-paid-for journalists are lying and twisting flat out to exploit all
the above. The aim is to frighten ‘soft’ Brexit voters into changing their
minds and to build up momentum for a drive to use the autumn’s expected General
Election as a de facto Second Referendum.
The purpose of this hybrid political war on the British majority is to
derail the whole Brexit process and keep Britain in the EU (or at least to turn
leaving into such a shambles that no other country will dare to follow suite).
This explains why Prime Minister Cameron has already broken his promise
during the referendum that, in the event of a Leave vote, he would immediately
trigger Article 50 of the Lisbon Treaty in order to set Brexit in motion. It is
now blatantly obvious that the Europhile elite have no intention of allowing
such a minor inconvenience as the democratically expressed will of the British
people to disrupt the process of ‘ever closer Union’ or of the geo-political
‘necessity’ of keeping the EU united for the deepening confrontation with
Russia.
In advance of last Thursday’s vote, the Brussels-rule camp pulled out
all the stops, with multi-levelled frauds and the ruthless exploitation of the
murder of Jo Cox looking certain to secure a manipulated but unquestionable
Remain vote.
Despite the failure of the campaign, a vociferous minority of hardcore
Europhiles, led at present by Tory grandee Lord Heseltine and ‘moderate’ Labour
and LibDem MPs such as David Lammy and Tim Farron, are not going to accept the
verdict of the referendum.
Instead, they are trying desperately to give the liberal elite the nerve
and confidence for their biggest ever display of out-of-touch arrogance –
denying the British people the right to have their Brexit decision implemented.
Will they get away with it? Or will the response of ordinary people as
they realise what is going on be so outraged as to convince the Europhiles
that, being already in a massive hole, it really is time to stop digging? I
don’t know. I simply don’t know. But there is no doubt that this is their game
plan. Don’t expect stability and certainty any time soon.
WHO CARES IF A BUNCH OF GREEDY RICH TOSSERS HAVE LOST MONEY ON THE STOCK MARKET SINCE THE BRITISH PEOPLE VOTED 'OUT'? I DO NOT, I DO NOT CARE. AND WHY SHOULD YOU? WE ARE OUT, NOW. GET ARTICLE 50 OF THE LISBON TREATY INVOKED AND LET'S GET ON WITH IT!
Throughout much of the referendum debate, it has
been assumed that, in order to continue participating in the Single Market, we
would have to accept freedom of movement. Any number of high-ranking Commission
officials have warned us that this is "non-negotiable".
Now, at last, we are beginning to have the debate we should have had before the
referendum, we have the know-all BBC creeping out of the woodwork,
together with others, to remind us of this, as more and more Johnny-come-latelys leap on the EEA bandwagon,
including the revered Chatham House.
However, we should have known that the Commission officials (and the European
politicians who joined them), were not telling the truth about freedom of
movement – or at least the whole truth in respect of the EEA.
Almost too late, we discovered something hidden in plain sight: the fact that
the EU has been quite willing to negotiate with one of the three Efta/EEA
states on freedom of movement. Furthermore, they have come to an amicable
solution, which has allowed it to secure an amendment to the treaty giving it a
permanent opt-out to freedom of movement. The state concerned now operates a
quota system little different in principle to the Australian points system.
That the state is the principality of Liechtenstein need not worry us. It may
be a tiny micro-state with a population of 37,000 spread over an area of 61
square miles – less than half the area of the Isle of Wight – but it is a
fully-fledged Contracting Party to the EEA Agreement. It has assumed exactly
the same rights and responsibilities as any other Efta state.
Furthermore, Iceland has used exactly the same provisions to suspend free
movement of capital following the 2008 financial crisis, demonstrating that
there is a real and effective option within the EEA Agreement which could be
available to the UK, and solve a lot of problems.
I've already told the story in parts, but for the record, I am now bringing it
together under one head in this blogpost. Now the media and politicians can
ignore it properly, instead of pretending they haven't seen it. I've also
written up a version in Flexcit, so that they can ignore it there as
well, leaving the 90,000-plus readers better informed than those who seek to
instruct us.
The story starts – and a fascinating one it is – before Liechtenstein joined
the EEA on 1 May 1995. We can actually take 10 March 1995 as the beginning,
when the EEA Council - part of the formal consultation structure set up under
the agreement – looked at the situation dominating Liechtenstein's entry.
The Council recognised that Liechtenstein had "a very small inhabitable
area of rural character with an unusually high percentage of non-national
residents and employees". And it decided that this microstate could easily be
swamped by immigrants if unrestricted free movement of workers was permitted.
Like the UK, but at the opposite end of the scale, the country was not able to
absorb unlimited numbers.
Moreover, the Council acknowledged "the vital interest of Liechtenstein to
maintain its own national identity". It thus concluded that the situation "might
justify the taking of safeguard measures by Liechtenstein as provided for in Article 112 of the EEA Agreement".
Article 112 is part of the "safeguard measures" – popularly known as
the "emergency brake". Where serious economic, societal or
environmental difficulties of a sectorial or regional nature arise, which are
liable to persist, it allows Efta states (but not EU Member States)
unilaterally to take appropriate measures to resolve them. EU Member States
have to rely on the Commission to take action.
Back in 1995, with a massive immigration problem looming, the EEA Council asked
all members to "endeavour to find a solution which allowed Liechtenstein
to avoid having recourse to safeguard measures". However, no long-term
solution was found so a temporary expedient was arranged by way of transitional
arrangements which allowed the country to impose "quantitative
limitations" on immigration until 1 January 1998. These were incorporated
into Protocol 15, appended to the Agreement.
The next move was towards the end of 1997, just before the end of the
transitional period. There had been no long-term solution found so
Liechtenstein unilaterally invoked the Article 112 safeguard
measures. By this means, it kept the existing immigration restrictions in place
when the transitional period ended.
There were further attempts to resolve the situation in
1998, which were unsuccessful. Then, on 17 December 1999 after a further
review, the EEA Joint Committee decided that the "specific geographical
situation of Liechtenstein" still justified "the maintenance of
certain conditions on the right of taking up residence in that country".
In order to resolve the situation, though, it came up with a proposal for a longer-term solution, allowing
Liechtenstein to introduce a quota system controlling the number of workers
allowed to enter the country. This decision was given formal status by an
amendment to Annex VIII of the EEA Agreement, setting out what
were called "sectoral adaptations", cross-referred to Annex V on the free movement of workers.
As a formal amendment to the EEA Agreement, the decision provided for a new
transitional period until 31 December 2006, and allowed for the new measures to
apply subject to a review "every five years, for the first time before May
2009".
After reviews in 2009 and in 2015, it was concluded
that there was no need to make any change to the current rules. The provisions
on the Sectoral Adaptations could remain unchanged. Under the current
arrangement, Liechtenstein issues 56 residence permits for economically active
and 16 permits to economically non-active persons each year. Half of the
totally available permits are decided by lottery, held twice a year.
The numbers involved are, of course, small beer, but Liechtenstein is a tiny
country. What matters is that a precedent has been set within the framework of
the EEA Agreement for suspending freedom of movement in respect of a single
country, and replacing with a quota system for what amounts to an indefinite
period.
This is where the situation currently stands. Thus, whatever the EU might
declare in terms of freedom of movement being "non-negotiable" for EU
Member States, it is undeniable that it is negotiable within the framework of
the EEA Agreement, as it applies to Efta states.
Therefore, if the UK chooses to follow the Efta/EEA option as an interim
solution to expedite the Article 50 settlement, once the agreement is adopted
it can then follow the procedural steps pioneered by Liechtenstein, imposing
limits on immigration from EEA states.
In terms of the quota system applied, it should be noted that, in the
Australian-style points system, only 23 percent of the migrants admitted come
under the points system. The overall limit set amounts to an arbitrary quota,
set annually – currently at 190,000. This is, by any measure, a quota system.
To that extent, the UK can have some of its cake and eat it. The
"Liechtenstein solution" potentially gives our negotiators far more
flexibility than at first imagined, and should help us reach an amicable
settlement with the EU, while keeping us in the Single Market.

We'll have to rebuild Hadrian's Wall to keep the Scottish outfrom
the Southern Daily Echo
IF SCOTLAND ever does get its Independence I hope the people know the
meaning of the word.
For starters they will be left entirely on their own, no help whatsoever
from England as Scotland will be classed as a foreign country and border posts
will have to be put up, guarded by our armed forces.
And who knows, Hadrian’s Wall could even be rebuilt and far higher of
course, also guarded by our armed forces.
And why not? Better be forward thinking and safe than sorry, as we don’t
know who the SNP will join up with in the future.
Scotland’s 59 MP’s at Westminster would be sent packing back to Scotland
where they should be anyway.
Scotland should not be allowed to keep the pound, English voters should not
be forced to pay an
Independent Scotland’s debts and the Bank of England should
not bail out Scottish Banks if they go bust.
This is just the tip of the iceberg as to what the SNP want for Scotland.
Nice work if you can get it but if the SNP think for one second they can leave
the UK but still keep all the benefits of UK membership, they are living in
cloud cuckoo land.
No way. You stand alone. That’s being independent.
The appalling and senseless
murder of Jo Cox MP on Thursday 16th June 2016 shocked us all and resulted in a
very public outpouring of grief from her politician colleagues.
Disgracefully, some of them made
shameless political capital out of it for the #Remain campaign in the European
Referendum. One leaflet, distributed in Kate
Hoey’s constituency, directly blamed the murder on the veteran
#Leave Labour MP. ‘Jo Cox’s tragic murder is possibly only the start’, it
raved.
USING AN OPPORTUNITY
Jo Cox’s husband, Brendan, also a
campaigner for left-wing causes, was quick to blame ‘hate’ rather than
shortcomings in our mental health service for his wife’s death. We should have
sympathy for him in his loss, but to claim ‘Politics’ (rather than lunacy) was
behind her death went beyond normal grieving. It was political point-scoring.
Brendan Cox has now tweeted a link
to a fund-raising page for his late wife on the ‘gofundme’ website. Frankly, he
is using the opportunity to raise funds initially for two causes which might
not ordinarily draw any support or credence from anyone outside his circle, in
addition to the worthy Royal Voluntary Service.
HOPE NOT HATE
The second of his three causes is
‘Hope not Hate’ which ‘seeks to challenge and defeat the politics of hate and
extremism within local communities, building resilience against the politics of
hate and fear’. ‘Hate’ is a buzzword used by those on the godless left to
demonise anyone who disagrees with them.
In practice, ‘Hope not Hate’ are
pro-Islam and pro-sodomy. Anyone who opposes those causes is not someone with
whom they respectfully disagree, but one motivated by ‘hate’. Indeed, that is
how Brendan Cox used ‘hate’, trying to use his wife’s tragic death as a
campaign tool. In his eyes, anyone wanting the leave the EU, especially over concerns
about immigration, is driven by ‘hate’.
WHITE HELMETS
The third of Brendan’s three
causes is the Syrian ‘White Helmets’, also known as ‘Syrian National Defence’.
It was not formed by Syrians, but by the UK Foreign Office. Its operatives pose
as humanitarians in Syria. In practice, they are anti-Assad extremist Sunni
Muslims allied with Al Nusra front, the Al Qaeda offshoot.
Jo and Brendan Cox joined Bob
Geldof’s foul-mouthed tirade against fishermen on the Thames the day before her
tragic murder.
Additionally, she served as a
Patron, Trustee, and Board member for various other campaigns and causes. She
also received the Young Global Leader award in 2009 at the Davos World Economic
Forum, and was a winner of the DEVEX 40 under 40 International Development
Leaders Award in 2012.
INAPPROPRIATE
In September last year, Brendan
Cox left Save the Children amid complaints about ‘inappropriate behaviour’
towards women. He quit after four years as its director of policy and advocacy.
He denied the claims made against him and the charity declined to comment.
The day before her murder,
Brendan and Jo Cox and their two chilldren joined Sir Bob Geldof’s well-oiled,
foul-mouthed flotilla by manning an inflatable against
Brexit-leaning fishermen on the Thames. The pop millionaire’s obscene gestures
in the direction of the fishermen revealed the contempt of the well-heeled
#Remain camp against ordinary people.
ANTI-ISRAEL
Despite a eulogy from the Chief
Rabbi, Jo Cox was no parliamentary friend of Israel. She included goods from ‘Israeli settlements in the occupied
West Bank‘ among ‘unsavoury activities’ which should be
boycotted.
Two days after her death, the
Palestinian Hamas terrorist group (also Sunni Muslim) were on the bandwagon:
‘The Islamic Resistance Movement Hamas has expressed its sincere
condolences to the family, friends and admirers of slain UK MP Jo Cox.
‘The Palestinian people have lost
a friend and a defender of their rights,’ Hamas said in a press release on
Saturday. ‘Cox was … a passionate advocate for the
Palestinian cause.’
The Hamas Charter states its Islamic determination to ‘eliminate’ the state of
Israel, helpfully explaining, in Article 28, that this is because Israel is
‘Jewish’. In Article seven it urges Muslims to ‘fight the Jews and kill
them’. Hamas is the Palestinian governing authority of the Gaza Strip.
Also in the House of Commons, Jo
Cox voted for Doctor Assisted Dying in September last year and abstained on the
crucial vote in November over whether the Royal Air Force should bomb
Islamic State in Syria.
“‘Remainers’, he said, may try to
say that a vote to stay in the EU is a vote against ‘hatred’ and for ‘hope’ or
the politics of ‘unity’ over those of ‘division’. Such a move would bring about
the triumph of the assassin’s veto in our society – something which could not
only have appalling short-term consequences, but bloody long-term ones as well.
I trust that those campaigning for ‘Remain’ recognise that a victory achieved
on those terms would be the sourest and most divisive victory of all.”
Sadly, Brendan Cox has lacked
that decency at this solemn time.
