Dear All
One of the things of interest to me is ex politicians who
jumped ship giving their tuppence worth on matters that don’t affect them.
David Miliband has waded into the Brexit debate to say UK
In my mind, he like his brother Ed aren’t saviours of any
kind for anyone from a working class background.
After losing the bid to be leader of the Labour Party by his
brother, he took up the post of head of the International Rescue Committee in
New York
Now, like Blair, David Miliband is attempting to muddy the
waters by joining cross-party Remainer drive with Nick Clegg and Nicky Morgan.
Although he is entitled to an opinion, the fact is he is on the wrong side of
history, never a good place to be. One of the points, Miliband cites is that
the the UK
How does having control of your own borders equal a security
risk?
We have had over 40 years of EU Membership, does this feel
like a prosperous country, is there milk and honey which everyone has missed,
along with nirvana? The EU is a political organisation which wants to remove
sovereignty from every country who is a member and impose their rule.
The EU is anti country and anti worker.
But….. here we have Miliband who lives in the USA
Speaking at a rice factory in Essex, the trio will claim the
Government's proposals for Brexit would 'diminish Britain
This is laughable; also if you take the time to read
Miliband’s wiki, he has an interest in the control of foodstuff, namely rice.
The Trio of Doom and Gloom want to urge MPs and peers to seize control of Brexit
from ministers and force a softer approach. In other words stage an anti
democracy coup against the people, this will not be allowed to happen.
Europhile politicians are gearing up for a last-ditch effort
to water down Brexit but the UK Government must hold firm, the people of the UK
made the decision to leave the EU, that means all of it, not a part, all of it.
Theresa May appears to be on the verge of defeat in Cabinet
over her favoured plan for a 'customs partnership' with the EU.
A clash on single market membership is also on the cards,
with Jeremy Corbyn facing pressure for scores of Labour MPs to shift his
party's policy. Miliband said the Labour leader risked being seen as the
'midwife of hard Brexit' by failing to back single market membership.
One has to wonder that since Miliband won’t get his way
whether his intervention is more about doing damage to Jeremy Corbyn to usher
in a new ‘Blair’ Era of New Labour politics which previously was despised over
issues like Iraq
In trying to sell his ‘vision’ Miliband cites the single
market isn't just about the trade in goods and services, it's also about
environmental regulation, it's also about employee rights. As I have mentioned
before the EU doesn’t protect employee’s rights, the ‘Viking Case’ puts to
death that lie.
Miliband like a lot of arrogant politicians relies on the
ignorance of the public not doing the research, in the case above; all the
employees were kicked out of their jobs which the EU didn’t protect.
Finally, the remainers still haven’t accepted the fact that
the people of Britain have moved on from the EU, there is a ground swell for
hard Brexit in my opinion because people don’t want their democratic vote
undermined, what does David Miliband represent, the past, not the good old
days, the bad old days, and clearly people have had enough of that.
