The Week in Review.
Gosh – what a busy old week it has been and what weak week it has been for the poor, desperate REMAINIACS and their Project Fear. Let's see, where to start…
How about today and work backwards.
this is how they view democracy
Tory Peer and REMAINIAC Ros Altman sent out this twitter today:
Majority of MPs in all 3parties want to stay in EU. They're your democratically elected leaders. Voting Brexit overrules your own MPs Majority of MPs in all 3parties want to stay in EU. They're your democratically elected leaders. Voting Brexit overrules your own MPs
— Ros Altmann (@rosaltmann) June 9, 2016
In her world our vote in a referendum does not count, it is MP's anyway who should decide this for us. Oh - Rosalind Miriam Altmann, Baroness Altmann, CBE appointed by Vichy Dave as "pensions expert" wasn't elected to her lofty position. A true example of a "europhile" with obvious ambitions to be an EU commisioner. Remainiacs are the gift that keeps on giving.
Do as you're told by your betters – or show her who leads whom on June 23rd and Vote Leave
from yesterday
Nine Out of Ten Economists...
Remember the oft repeated "nine out of ten economists" oppose BREXIT? We found out this week how they arrived at that figure:-
The figure was based on a self-selecting Ipsos MORI survey of economists from the Royal Economic Society and the Society of Business Economists.
The survey was sent out to 3,818 economists. Only 639 (or 16.7%) replied, of which 561 said Brexit would be bad for the economy. That’s just 14.7% of the total number of economists contacted. So rather than nine out of ten economists warning against Brexit, it was actually closer one in seven. Quite a lie from Gideon “Haw Haw” Osborne and Vichy Dave don't you think?
Clearly they think you are a mug. If you think you are not a mug – Vote Leave
from the day before:
Let's dig a great big hole and bury the EU in it..
and use this man's fine diggers with which to do it
earlier in the week
Just saying Good Bye:
Nigel's departing speech to the EU parliament:-
https://youtu.be/7LmDNby6jC0
...and this dismal week for Project Fear kicked off with Vichy Dave being laughed at and told about the real world by an audience member whilst going head to head with Nigel on ITV
It's all gone so wrong
It’s all gone a bit Pete Tong for the PM. It turns out lining up every global leader, trade envoy and financier from Canary Wharf to Washington to warn the serfs to vote Remain on threat of nuclear apocalypse wasn’t actually the best idea. Who’d have thought it? People voting in a referendum on global elites don’t want to listen to those same global elites telling them which way to vote. How very bizarre!
David Cameron having a consoling pint & ciggie on the Commons Terrace after the disastrous ITV "show" - awwww
Luckily for the Leave camp, master political strategist David Cameron is so comprehensively divorced from any semblance of normality that he doesn’t realise this, and will continue treating the British people like benighted little peasants who need to sit down and listen to what the clever dignitaries and technocrats tell them. In fact, unwittingly, the red-faced ex-Buller boy is one of the Leave campaign’s single biggest assets.
but it wasn't supposed to end like this when we started out
Above,
(1) the Hon. Edward Sebastian Grigg, the heir to Baron Altrincham of Tormarton and current chairman of Credit Suisse (UK)
(2) David Cameron
(3) Ralph Perry Robinson, a former child actor, designer, furniture-maker
(4) Ewen Fergusson, son of the British ambassador to France, Sir Ewen Fergusson and now at City law firm Herbert Smith
(5) Matthew Benson, the heir to the Earldom of Wemyss and March
(6) Sebastian James, the son of Lord Northbourne, a major landowner in Kent
(7) Jonathan Ford, the-then president of the club, a banker with Morgan Grenfell
(8) Boris Johnson, the-then president of the Oxford Union
9) Harry Eastwood, the investment fund consultant

the week began with News From our Danish Cousins
Coming to a Town Near You
Daham Al Hasan fled from Syria to Denmark, leaving behind his three wives and 20 children. Under the Danish rules of family unification, one of his wives and eight of his children have joined him in Denmark. But Al Hasan wants all his children with him, as well as all his wives. Lawyers estimate that the remaining wives will be able to join their children in Denmark. The case has caused a shock not only because of what it will cost the Danish state just in child allowance, but because Al Hassan claims that he is too ill to work or even learn Danish. "I don't only have mental problems, but also physical problems..." He has admitted that his "mental illness" consists of missing the children he voluntarily left behind.
We all have rough weekends...
Pissed up Junker - again
This clown is the top EU man – head of the Comission no less. You can't sack him as you didn't elect him. The irony is He calls Hungary’s PM Viktor Orbán “the dictator” - at least he was ELECTED
In a rare sober moment this clown has threatened our country with severe retaliation should we vote to leave his rancid EU. The British people have stepped over better men to get to a fight. If you agree – Vote Leave
Monday Morning Blues
The “trougher” panicks
Acknowledging the inevitability of defeat, we see trougher Stephen Kinnock MP on the news sensing the end to his family's £12m serial looting and plundering spree of EU' taxpayers money. He's saying he is already organising a majority in parliament in a vote to maintain the single market and mass migration that goes with it when we vote BREXIT .
When we talk about the contempt for democracy amongst the EU oligarchs, here is a prime example. Leave means LEAVE.
Vote Leave.
From the same day
Have Mercy On Me
Johny Mercer MP who came out as a remainiac yesterday. He too ran a poll in his Plymouth constituency - they came out 74.1% for BREXIT with 400 respondents. His majority in the last election was 1,000. Doh!
After Brexit, Frexit? Poll Shows French Want a Referendum Too
Interesting research from Edinburgh University shows that 53 percent of French would like to hold their own vote on EU membership, and in Spain, Germany and Sweden more people are in favour of doing so than are opposed.
The report says the outcome of such a referendum in Germany and Spain would likely be “a firm affirmation of EU membership.” But the researchers found that in France and Sweden, less than 50 percent of respondents would vote to remain in the EU.
read the piece here on Newsweek:
After Brexit, Frexit? Poll Shows French Want a Referendum Too
Cameron on Turkey
Vichy Dave in the last few days as we all know says that Turkey "will not become a member of the EU until the year 3,000 AT THE EARLIEST and I would veto it" and that in no way should Turkey's accession influence how you vote in the referendum.
https://youtu.be/4e6JC5AcCZM
Vichy Dave caught in yet another lie on Turkey as seen on out own Diplomats website
TV's Farage/Cameron "debate"
In this weeks ITV debate with Farage & Cameron remember the black woman's race baiting attack on Farage? Turns out she wasn't a member of the public after all but has admitted to being selected by the producers specifically to attack him in this way.
Just another example of how the biased media has it's own agenda. Channel Four is IMHO the most blatant in this with barely concealed hatred for BREXITERS. If you too are pissed off by the establishment's perpetual stitch ups, taking the piss and us for idiots Vote Leave The woman who aggressively questioned UK Independence Party leader Nigel Farage during the ITV debate yesterday has admitted that she was not selected as a member of the general public and that ITV invited her on due to her hosting of a black community-focused podcast.
 Imriel Morgan, the “CEO and co founder” of the Shout Out Network and blogger at the Huffington Post, told radio host Jon Gaunt during his Talk2MeRadio show that she was not selected as a member of the general public, and that she believes there is a right-wing media conspiracy to push images of coloured people up the Google image search rankings for the phrase “EU migrants”.
When asked by Jon Gaunt as to whether ITV did any background checks of her, or her “clear political agenda,” Ms. Morgan admitted to having been hand picked by ITV.
“What kind of checks did they do on you, did they ask you about Shout Out, did they ask you about articles you’ve placed on the Huffington Post or not?”
“No they did not,” replied Ms. Morgan, adding: “They reached out to me via the podcast though so it’s not as if they didn’t do their regular checks.”
“So they saw the podcast, thought ‘this is an interesting woman, different perspective, let’s get her on’ but then they put you on as if you were a member of the [public]”
“…I was a member of the audience who was picked to ask a question”.
“You were a member of the audience but they could have put you on as a representative and as somebody who created a podcast… I’m surprised that they put you on, in the audience, and did not announce that.”
The revelation comes as it was also revealed that ITV hand selected the audience rather than relying on a reputable pollster to ensure demographic representation last night.
FYI: Sky News used @Survation to get a balanced audience. ITV did not. I hear their producers “hand picked” the audience.

And Mr. Gaunt also spoke to her about her employment background.
“As well as doing Shout Out have you got a job at the moment?” he asked,
“Shout Out is my job, I’m the CEO, Chief Executive Officer” she replied.
“So are you earning from it, with only three podcasts, are you making money from it?”
“I’m a freelancer”.
“So you’re not making money at the moment”.
“Not from the podcast”.
