He's a little less optimistic with this Sunday column than with the previous one regarding the people of the UK taking their country back from the EU, but his words apply to the USA as well.

The success of the Leave vote in the referendum is threatened by the violent act of an insane man who killed the MP last week which Hitchens discusses later in his column.

His writing reminds he of the situation here in the USA down to the baseball capped police of the UK he describes who reminded me so much of the FBI goons who occupied eastern Oregon earlier this year.

“I can think of no other country where the elite are so hostile to their own nation, and so contemptuous of it”

I don’t know the guy was insane. A tad premature. As in this country, when the majority seem hell bent on dragging you to the North Korea/Venezuela condition murder actually becomes self defense. The practical solution is to turn the majority into a minority. One way or another.

That is an antidote to Socialism that worked in Singapore.

Well, it’s exactly what’s happening here, GB, France & Germany at least. The hatred the elites have towards their own country.

Hey Brits,

When in the Course of human events, it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another, and to assume among the powers of the earth, the separate and equal station to which the Laws of Nature and of Nature’s God entitle them, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the separation.

The false allure of the nanny state is a powerful intoxicant. People like the idea of free stuff and will fall for it every time. That’s why the BREXIT vote will fail.

Unfortunately, a few days ago, a mentally ill British fascist murdered a Labour MP, thereby causing incalculable damage to the movement to free Britain and end the EUSSR
