Today is Brext Britain’s Independence Day – A Year on Since the Vote

On June 23rd, 2016, Britain voted to leave the European Union. In one of the most startling political upsets to the British and European Establishment, the highest ever voter turnout rejected the Globalist EU and opted to be a self-governing, sovereign nation state. One year on and the mechanism to leave (Article 50 of the Lisbon Treaty) has been triggered and the negotiations have begun in earnest.

The man responsible for not only getting the former Prime Minister, David Cameron, to hold a Referendum on Britain’s continued membership, but also, arguably, the man who secured the victory was Mr. Nigel Farage. Here’s his immediate reaction:

My feeling is that Brexit is not going to stick. There is too much liberalism in England now, and while it was voted on fair and square, liberal euroweenies won’t give up. They are

They are trying to think of any legislative trick under the sun to invalidate it, and they have an army of liberal media doing a full court press to drum up the talk of disaster if they go through with it.

On this, I hope I am wrong.

So after a YEAR why is the UK still in the EU?

Will they wait another YEAR before taking action?

And then a few more YEARS?

And then have another referendum, because the first one didn’t turn out right?

That is it exactly. Well, we have to have another referendum, the other one wasn’t acted on in the proscribed time frame under the law, and it expired...

Or whatever. They obviously still hope they can reverse it, otherwise the media wouldn’t be pushing the articles that say they are all going to die if they leave the EU (there was one yesterday about a guy who ran a fruit orchard, saying he voted for the referendum, but now, he will go bankrupt if he can’t get the EU migrant workers, so he wouldn’t vote that way again and hopes it gets reversed.

Scum, all.
