10 years ago, seems like yesterday, we witnessed the culmination of ‘project fear’ where basically, the world would end, life as we know it would end.
No more UK (the irony).
No more insert ‘anything’ on and on…
I vividly remember the night, the low’s, the trepidation, the drumbeat, that self governance, self determination, having your own agency, as an individual and as A COUNTRY was to be replaced with a technocratic rule of your betters.
We had no idea, like many, but it didn’t stop us trying, dare to lose to win…
How it would go, we all made our arguments.
The talking heads, the experts, the ‘thinking-class’ dominated the airwaves, the chattering class, the hubris, the snobbery, was for all to see, who choose to see.
But the silent majority, cast their ballot, anonymously, defied the pollsters, the expert class, their betters 🙄 and around 7:30am 24/6/16, it was announced to a Chernobyl-style meltdown, disbelief, indignation and incredulity of the media, and the above mentioned, that Brexit won!
The people spoke, it was a peaceful and democratic rebellion and a democratic turn-out that the establishment, still cannot fathom to this day.
Nonetheless, we WON that battle, but to paraphrase, that War (and politics is War by other means) continues to this day…
Diolch 🏴
Onwards…..
