THE BREXIT CATASTROPHE Piers Morgan: BREXIT BASED ON LIES MAKES 'REJOINING' IMPOSSIBLE Original article: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZzC9em3zZvE Peter Burgess COMMENTARY 'Leaders' are important ... and in many different settings, have a lot of powers. Nigel Farage was recruited as a leader in the Brexit saga, and was paid a lot of money to do what he did. The young lady who is in support of the Brexit agenda interviewed by Piers Morgan is very weak, but the lady working for the Financial Times in New York articulates the catasdtrophic Brexit story very well. Brexit has done momentous damage to the UK. A similar saga is going on with Trump and Trumpism in the USA. In both countries the democratic process and voting has been / is being gamed by people with money and therefore power to get the vote they want. In both cases people voting are getting duped 'en masse' by false stories about the issues. I am reminded of the tag line in a British radio show 'ITMA' from the 1940s ... 'Ignorance is bliss, 'tis folly to be wise'. The technology that has enabled social media and the whole ecosystem built around all of this is dangerous ... and out-of-control!

I’ve taken the liberty of adapting the great man’s quote. “Honest politics and Brexit politics are contradictions in terms. Lying is a necessary part of a Brexitist’s political equipment, for it is essential for him to conceal his political intentions from the people. This is partly the reason for his success in getting and keeping Brexit.” The political intentions of your Nigel Farrages and Jacob Rees Moggs, your Boris Johnsons and Rishi Sunaks have nothing to do with the wellbeing of the country or the wellbeing of deluded voters who backed their Russia-funded, dishonest and law breaking Leave campaign, and everything to do with burnishing their own wealth and/or political prospects. I appreciate all of you who share my videos with friends and social media to get the word out there. Together, let's bring this extreme right wing government to an end. Unlike those weird new right wing TV news channels and ultra right wing 'think tanks' that are always on the telly, I receive no hidden funding. Or any funding, come to that, except YouTube partner programme advertising revenue, and YouTube donations from viewers. As well as sharing the videos on social media and with your friends, hitting the Like button and subscribing to the channel is also really helpful, as it tells YouTube to offer my videos to a wider audience.
