INTRODUCTION

• This page started not for or against Brexit (British exit from EU), but with message:
  Regardless if For or Against Brexit, Please Register & Vote.
  UK deprived 750,000+ British living longer than 15 years in the EU of any vote. If you can still vote, don' t let them steal your vote too: Register & Vote !
  New message:
  Brexit 2016-06-23 Referendum Margin Fraudulent: After UK stole/ deprived 3.7 Million globally, inc. 750,000+ votes from UK citizens in EU, the rump results do not represent us.
  UK also deprived us of our right to constituency MP representation : Worth 10 MPs for British in EU who cant vote in UK, & 40 MPs for Brits globally who can' t vote in UK:
  ( 750,000+ Brits affected in EU / 68,000 electors (92,000 population) per MP = 10 MPs.
  & globally: 3,700,000 / 68,000 = 40 MPs).
  The British Parliament fails to represent 750,000+ British in Europe, British in EU also only have EU MEPs till UK exits EU.
• On 2016-06-23 Referendum day, author was on a UK high street, urging people to vote & get their friends to vote, whichever way they wanted, "'Cos I 'm British & not _Allowed_ to vote!" - All were surprised & thought it unfair he couldn't't vote! -
• Government gerrymandered & stole the votes of many UK citizens resident in Europe.

PETITIONS

July 2016 & Beyond

• The post 2016-06-23 Referendum political chaos { inc. Conservative & Labour resignations, challenge from Scotland, legal moves to ensure a prime minister can't just implement Brexit without parliament (Mischcon), half baked ignorant statements ignoring individual civil rights embedded in treaties beyond mere EU, etc} Creates time & space through to the Autumn & beyond, to think deeper, & better consider all aspects of a possible Brexit, rather than stupidly take the narrow 2016-06-23 Referendum margin as knee jerk authorisation to leave.
• It was infuriating to listen to radio in UK for days after 2016-06-23 Referendum , to repeatedly hear lots in ignorance say
• "We've all had a chance to vote, now we must implement it" IT'S A LIE ! We did Not _All_ have a chance to vote !!
• BRITAIN STOLE OUR VOTES : Author is a British citizen, was physically in UK (Kent) on the day & not eligible to register or vote
• It would be irresponsible to push Brexit through without serious House Of Commons & Lords multi readings & debate.
• Some in UK who voted Leave EU really just intended a kick or warning to the EU Brussels bureaucracy, some probably didn't expect a majority with immediate consequences. Even many who voted Remain In EU also consider the Brussels bureaucracy overpaid, bloated, forcing ever more regulations on us too fast, annoying almost all members with their wide interference. Bloat worsened by speaking every language in the EU, with costs of interpreters & translators, delays & mis-understanding. Even wasting a 1/4 of their time each month in Strasbourg. Many citizens of the EU outside the UK also think we need a looser Europe with flexibility, moving slower together, not forced fast by overpaid EU bureaucrats driving their own agenda of grand visions.
• independent.co.uk : "TO THE PRIME MINISTER AND ALL MEMBERS OF PARLIAMENT 9 July 2016" by PHILIP KOLVIN QC And 1053 others
• Author expects UK economy & house prices will soften & drop in autumn 2016, when politicians return from holiday & the disaster progressively starts to unravel.
  • Business likes stability & a predictable future market. Brexit will produce a lot of market disruption & more scares as it unfolds. Building new alternative trade agreements & finding customers outside EU will take years.
  • Whether investing in new production lines, or lubricating foreign palms to place "invisible export" contracts in UK, etc, It takes time to recoup investments. More reason for a bust than a boom.
  • Bankers in London fear for jobs. France & Germany will make bids yet again to shoulder out the London finance market.
  • Would an EU citizen buy a house in London today ? With some idiot UK politicians saying existing EU people in UK might have to go home ? Half a Million French in London author recalls ? Maybe same again for Poles ? Whatever the numbers are, won't be good for London & SE property market
  • A bad time to ` invest' in UK property. (Except perhaps not a bad time for buyers with Euros or dollars as pound is worth a lot less ).
  • Some in UK will start trying to drive harder bargains courtesy of Brexit fears.
  • Britain in 20 years might or not do better outside EU, but short term next year or 2, UK will do worse, The disaster of Brexit will take time to unfold. (When West Germany damaged its economy acquiring East Germany, it was a 20+ year long financial disaster (though benefited NATO)).
• Message as sent 2016-07-19 18:31 CEST to Ian Blackford MP, SNP who will open debate on the Petition. (Others might like to send similar to other MPs)
  Brexit: Westminster Hall 2016-09-05 16:30. UK stole 750,000+ votes from British in EU .
  Dear Mr Ian Blackford

  • As you will open the debate, I'd be grateful if you &/or colleagues could please reference in relation to Referendum numerics:
  • 750,000+ UK citizens resident in EU over 15 years were denied a vote !
  • Massive gerrymandering: nearly all would most probably have voted to remain in EU, based on sample at 2nd open meeting of British in Munich Germany 9th May, attended by the Consul.
  • Britain also stole our right to have constituency MPs to refer to.
  • Many of us are still intensely British & visit often, have investments & property in UK etc; eg author was in his UK high street on the day, encouraging people to vote, telling them Britain had stolen my right to vote.
  • Britain & Eire are the only 2 countries in European Union who steal the right to vote from citizens outside the country (USA also doesn't steal); That has so far only been challenged to UK's national Supreme Court, not to an International Court

  Guide on Article 3 of Protocol No. 1 - Right to free elections
  
  31. In a series of cases beginning in 1961, the Commission declared inadmissible, as manifestly ill- founded , complaints about restrictions on voting rights based on a residence criterion (see the Commission decisions: X. and Others v. Belgium ; X. v. the United Kingdom (11 December 1976) ; X. v. the United Kingdom (28 February 1979) ; X. v. the United Kingdom (13 May 1982) ; Polacco and Garofalo v. Italy ; Luksch v. Germany ). 32. The Court subsequently reiterated the compatibility y with Article 3 of Protocol No. 1 of the residence criterion . Such a restriction can be justified for a number of reasons:
  # first, the presumption that non -resident citizens are less directly or less continuously concerned by their country 's day -to-day problems and have less knowledge of them ;
  # second , the fact that candidates standing for election to Parliament cannot so easily present the election issues to citizens living abroad, who will also have less influence on the selection of candidates or on the drafting of their manifestos ;
  # third , the close connection between the right to vote in parliamentary elections and the fact of being directly affected by the acts of the political bodies thus elected; and, Guide on Article 3 of Protocol No. 1 - Right to free elections
  # fourth , the legitimate concern the legislature may have to limit the influence of citizens living abroad in elections concerning issues which, while fundamental , primarily affect those living in the country

  • Adding salt to the wound, Parliament not only stole the votes of 3.7 Million British abroad, inc. 750,000+ Brits in the EU (most knowledgeable & affected by Brexit), but they continued votes for Eire & commonwealth citizens resident in the UK ! Millions of British adults could not vote, but some non British could vote!

  • One can make Freedom of Information requests here: parliament . uk / site - information / foi / To ask eg what number of UK citizens over 15 year in EU outside UK
  )
• Maybe force a 2nd referendum, which would force some needed time to think & let the chaos subside. (NB Austrian Presidential election was ruled void in July 2016 by Austrian court & election must be re run, just because of procedural errors (Form Fehler counting started too early), Britain has made a disgustingly worse abuse, denying 750,000+ of its most EU experienced citizens a vote. UK should Not be less democratic than Austria !
• Buy time for public to better understand Brexit issues in the UK, currently populace have a different slant than MPs. Come Autumn, if/as the economy worsens, & some electors who merely wanted to give the Brussels bureaucracy a kick may start to realise they've kicked themselves too.
• Buy time for other EU countries to use Brexit as a lever to sack & discipline some top Brussels Federal Eurocrats for forcing the EU to be so overbearing. Not just British want to dump bounding Eurocrats; as Daniel Hannan MEP said, many Eurocrats such as Chris Patten , Neil Kinnock , & now Jean Claude Juncker etc, are only there after losing a national election.
• Contact Harry Shindler, San Benedetto, Italy & Jacquelyn MacLennan, Belgium, who took it to Supreme Court, & ask if/ encourage them to take it to an International Court, if necessary start crowd funding support ?

• Were idle or conniving ` Leave' Whitehall mandarins guilty of tricking stupid politicians, it was best to continue to dis-franchise long term British in the EU ?
  Who pushed their local electoral register excuse to steal the vote from 750,000+ British in the EU ? It was a fair assumption most British residents in EU longer than 15 years would be familiar with EU, & against Brexit; so excluding those 750,000+   gerrymandered the 2016-06-23 Referendum. Who was stupid ? Who culpably conspired ?

  UK expats - registered to vote in the EU referendum ( 2016-06-23 )
  Almost 106,000 overseas electors registered to vote - three times the numbers that were on the register ahead of the previous general election in 2010. While this is a real improvement, it is still a fraction of the 5.5 Million UK citizens estimated to be living overseas, and potentially eligible to vote at the EU Referendum ( 2016-06-23 ). This means Millions of UK citizens living overseas could miss out on their chance take part in the referendum (2016-06-23) on the UK' s membership of the European Union because they don't know they are eligible to register to vote. That is why we are supporting the second ever overseas Voter Registration Day to let UK residents overseas that many of them are eligible to vote and that it's now easier than ever to take the first step by going online to register to vote."

EU MISTAKES

• Sure the EU screws up too, but probably less than idiot nationalist politicians, & at least with different cultures & different ways of solving problems, by exchanging ideas, they have the chance to hear of better solutions, & learn from mistakes of others.
  Here's some things EU have screwed up in chronological order:
  • 2 Capitals: Brussels & Strasbourg.
  • CAP = Common Agricultural Policy: subsidises tobacco growers even ! & subsidises mega agricultural business like sugar beet in UK. (OTOH Britain's far more (too!) efficient practices screwed too: dust bowls near the Wash/ Norfolk area, & cooking offal at too low a temp & returning to vegetarian animal food chain led to BSE).
  • GDPR : General Data Protection Regulation
    The EU law that combined with a uniquely German law permitting 3rd party predator lawyers to sue on behalf of clients they don't yet have, forced this author to take loads of photos etc off the net.

• The UK Government is a thief , liar & enemy to British abroad:

  • Thieving 3.7M rights to vote globally; inc 750,000+ in EU;
  • Lieing the 2016-06-23 referendum was "democratic" while denying votes to the British most heavily impacted: residents in the EU.
  • The UK government is an enemy scaring masses of British abroad to take foreign nationality to protect themselves against the UK.
    Threatening rights of residence, work, health insurance, pensions, education etc of British abroad in the EU, scaring them to take foreign nationality to protect against abusive incompetent UK government.
    (Ironic as eg Author's mother tells of hiding in London underground from German bombers, & author's mother in law has shown German bunker where she hid from British/allied bombers. The EU was created after WW2 partly to avoid another war, now UK make itself the enemy of British in the EU. )
  • A mugger cannot represent its victims, similarly the UK government cannot represent rights of British citizens abroad in the EU. British abroad do not trust the UK to represent British abroad to the EU.

• Revolt ? Dis-United Kingdom ? Independence for London & Scotland ? Or Worse ?

  • Last time the British Government denied votes, & still levied taxes against British citizens abroad, it led to the American War of Independence.
  • With over half of Britain now against an incompetently planned Brexit, the British government shoves the Dis-United Kingdom toward disaster to the profit of certain leading Brexiteer MPs. Treason or not ? Histories of Britain list various splits revolts & civil wars (Roses, Cromwell etc).
  • UK's theft of rights to vote & constituency MPs representation, removes moral requirement for British abroad to respect UK laws passed since UK stole rights to vote.
  • UK Armed forces swear allegiance to the Queen, her heirs & successors, Not to Parliament, & not to a thieving lieing government.
  • Sign petitions to get votes back, eg: Sign Petitions on Parliament Petitions Site & berklix.eu/queen/
  • The final pages of Nick Clegg's book How To Stop Brexit (And Make Britain Great Again) point out as Remain & Leave are (or were) so close, either way, winner take all is a recipe for disaster, UK needs an ameliorative solution.
  • Parliament should break party whips, form cross party alliances to return electoral franchise & Brexit to cross party matters of individual conscience, (like eg abortion etc), not whipped left/right career rides for Theresa May & Jeremy Corbin lackeys.

  This was told to author by the sister of a friend who is a UK lawyer. My friend has lived outside UK for 23 years, but still got a BREXIT postal vote because he registered to vote at his parent's address 2 years ago.

  Subject: Diverting investments out of UK. Supporting EU passports proposals. Date: Tue, 14 Mar 2017 20:15:46 +0100 To: brexit@ mailman . berklix . org Hi people on brexit@ mailman . berklix . org mailman . berklix . org / mailman / listinfo / brexit Anyone else Not applying for German citizenship ? I 've been here since '85, & remain incensed with Britain stealing our votes, but will Not become German. Anyone else signed the campaigns to enable EU passports ? Anyone else considering moving investments from UK ? When rats depart a sinking ship (apologies ;-) it gets noticed (I hope **). Sterling on 2016-06-23 referendum day was 1.302, now 1.143, dropped 8.2% so far. I expect Sterling will continue to drop, until more British might (**) realise they've shot themselves in foot, & Brexit's not simple binary heaven, & a general election might provide a less sycophantic Commons. UK Budget seems readying for crisis & failure, not a boom. Higher chance of a UK London & banking led property market slump, than a boom, IMO. The Leave vote was too close, it fragmented Britain, ( Scotland & London on same side, Remain In, while parts of East Kent inc. Channel tunnel & Dover port want to Leave. ) England was a similar patchwork before the [first] English civil war. Theresa May's whip for hard Brexit is good for her but bad for the UK. B Team one trick horse Theresa May will probably be sacked the moment she flinches from riding hard for Brexit. Theresa May reduces chances of friendly reciprocal negotiation with EU. Forcing the Lords to rescind their amendment to protect EU citizens in UK, tempts EU to threaten British in EU , to ensure protection of EUs in UK. No Commons MP represent expats - Britain stole our votes, but we still have elected EU representatives this year who we are entitled to contact, if we can think how to use that remaining right. Theresa May's hard Brexit will further scare investors aware of other global populist/ nationalist potential trade disrupters inc: Germany's AFD, France's Marine Le Pen, Holland's Wilders, Turkey' s Erdogan, America's T Rump. Expect a global slump, unemployment & higher taxes, & fatter incomes & dividends for armaments & security industries. Wouldn't' t surprise author if a UK snap election occurred before schedule. They could wiggle round the fixed term Parliament act: Pass another Unfixed act.

  Wonder how rest of country is going ? Are Tory Remainers foolish still subjecting themselves to Theresa May' s hard brexit whip ? - Shouldn't't it be free votes for all parties in Parliament ?

• 2017-04-06   Not just Debts But Assets Too - An under considered topic !
  
  Almost as soon as the EU wanted to give the UK a leaving bill for incurred liabilities, this author thought: EU also has assets; If UK accepts a slice of EU debt, it's fair to claim & offset a slice of EU assets, eg European Parliament & office buildings etc.
  Farage's speech in European Parliament yesterday or today raised the issue. I think it was adjacent to his speech referred below, but I can't find a transcript ?
  europarl . europa . eu / sides / getDoc . do ? pubRef =-// EP // TEXT + PV + 20170405 + ITEM - 006 + DOC + XML + V0 // EN & language = EN
  "Nigel Farage, on behalf of the EFDD Group (the President called the speaker to order for comments deemed injurious to the dignity of Parliament)" (The word Mafia retracted to Gangsters).
  Evaluating EU Debts V Assets opens other cans of worms:
  • Precedent for other future EU joiners & leavers as effectively buying & selling shares in EU Ltd has not been done before, & with EU' s long disputed lust for perpetual enlargement Eastward, small new economies might not afford to buy in to EU Ltd ?
  • Similar precedent with UK from EU, as for Scotland from UK : if it leaves, Who would pay who how much for a fair slice of EU / UK national debt versus assets ? Perhaps better Not present bills & not waste money on bean counters ? It's often said lawyers not partners win in acrimonious divorce disputes.

  • Organisers Ingrid & David
  • A Meeting in Munich of maybe 50 ? or so British again, about 14? no shows so tables spare.
    
  • Chair: David, Speakers A chap from Vienna who will start a group there, Ingrid, & many others, (inc this author Julian).
  • Not in chronological order
  • All very dis-satisfied with Consul uttering copious Government soft soap not believed by anyone present. Various interjections on rubbish such as "EU keeping UK waiting ", & "negotiations in good faith on both sides"
    (European negotiators probably somewhat wary of a delaying, chaotic British government, surviving on bribed Northern Ireland votes, claiming to represent a riven nation, that denies its citizens abroad votes, & threatens EU citizen rights in UK, thus imperiling UK citizen rights in EU.)
  • David mentioned, re. Government fumbling: it had been British foreign policy for 500 years to split & balance European forces. Britain has now managed the opposite: To unite Europe against Britain.
  • David volunteered he could contact authorities to investigate citizen status issues if only Consul would give him high level introductions instead of currently working bottom up. Consul ignored the offer.
  • Ingrid said organisers of citizens impacted by Brexit were self financing expenses, (particularly in Berlin), including expenses of visiting government in UK. No offer of help from UK government, Consul more than ignored that request for support, said they couldn't support political parties. Ignored we're from all political parties, this s apolitical, only thing in common is we' re British, imperiled by Britain& deprived of right to constituency MPs to represent us.
  • Consul said he would _Not _ relay to London the depth of concerns & annoyance from the meeting, despite UK has deprived us of constituency MPs to represent us.
  • Consul said he was willing to come again.
  • Many other point were made by many other people, I don't have time to type, if you were there, post to the Mail List & I can mouse copy text or links.

  • ---

    After Formal End:
  • Numerous people observed, despite the Consul uttering government rubbish, most speakers had still articulated their disbelief, fears, & anger, in a very British under stated manner, while many other nationals would have reacted much more vigorously.
  • Many suspect the Consul will not present to London the full breadth as well as certainly not the depth of our problems, concerns, etc.
  • Is a Consul any benefit to us ?
    • This time (as last) nothing was learned, nothing solved, nothing gained from the Consul.
      However, we did learn from each other, so is a Consul merely useful as a PR catalyst, to draw extra audience ?
    • Is government purpose for consular attendance, merely to be seen to go through the motions, make an audience feel they' ve been listened to, but do Nothing, Not help, & provide Nothing ?
      (Not pure cynicism: To consult trade union representatives, with intent to do nothing after, is a technique this author first observed in junior management in his early 20s. - Repeats play less well to large audiences of professionals ;-) .
    • Is a Consul best a mere mouthpiece of a floundering government of the day ?
    • Or do Consuls etc as long term civil servants bear a deeper duty to support citizens abroad who find themselves suddenly assailed by a mass of problems, (amazingly triggered not by foreign host countries, but by British government incompetence).
    • Consuls etc as civil servants are NOT political appointees to pander to politics of the day, unlike eg USA ambassadors appointed by a president.
    • When more stable British governments returns, career reviews may not be so rosey for civil servants that merely pandered to deposed politicians.
    • Could Consuls help Ex pats with Brexit impacts ? Many cynics say "Useless to us, just interested in promoting trade."
      Even such consuls would be foolish to refuse to warn London: British "Soft Power" degrades as British Ex Pats tell local foreign associates: Don' t trust Britain! It stole our votes, scared British they might lose health treatment, scared us to apply for foreign citizenship; & scared EU citizens in UK too.
    • Tell the brexit@ mail list or a meeting announced on the brexit@ mail list, if you have ideas to protect Ex-Pats from the impacts of Brexit.
  • Plan next is to take a summer break for a couple of months, perhaps just another Brexit Group Beer Garden, without need for organisers to spend lots of time arranging. PS Brexit also gets discussed at meetings of Beer Gardeners & Faraday etc groups.

    As Theresa May & Jeremy Corbin are both inflexibly for Brexit, we'd probably still have no votes in time if there's a 2nd Referendum on Brexit terms negotiated.
    Both major parties are held by leaders & whips enforcing Brexit, so we're doomed, unless we help stir it to achieve new leaders &/ or minority governments , where Brexit can be voted by individual MPs as free votes of conscience.
    Best to derail Theresa May's back door trade deals with local EU leaders (which EU has told member countries not to do). British in the EU could send short notes in local languages to each recipient of David Davis's flying visits, eg Draft Here, improvements or better ideas ?

    • As our group was so small, we'd have been better off on central grass strip, police wouldn't' t want that for large demos I presume, but for just a few may be possible ?
    • Keep flags well back from road edges, to avoid traffic hazard.
    • Calling & Chanting: Avoid long words & long slogans - means low volume! - Fails across wide noisey roads
    • Calling "Stop Brexit" seems pointless: They are highly paid to push Brexit!
    • Better call eg " Stolen votes! & Gestohlen [Wahl-] Stimmen " - causes surprise & comment with local hosts. Or call "Talk To Us" maybe ?

  • Promotional pre-meeting, As sent to mail lists bg@ & old GEA lists, with shorter prior variant to mecc@ & faraday@ :
    Meeting with a Member of the European Parliament can interest not just British, but also Germans, Spanish, Poles etc, as Brexit affects the EU & impacts British friends here, & EU friends in UK.
    A rare chance to meet an elected representative as most British here have no elected MPs as UK stole right to vote from 3,700,000 globally, inc. 750,000 from British in the EU . Only UK & Eire un-democratically steal right to vote in the EU: berklix . eu / brexit /#disfranchisement

  • Meeting Notes/ Summary:
    • Many of us agreed the meeting was very good, & Maria Noichl refreshingly open. I cant hope to summarise her many points & answers, or many questions & points from audience. If others publish text I would gratefully link to it. A few notes:
      • Irish borders: EU fears a smugglers back door UK to EU
      • Amsterdam Hamburg Double
      • Copenhagen Criteria
      • As it takes 10 years+ for new nations to enter EU, a revised Article 50 could benefit by addition of a 2nd leaving statement, a confirmation with a time lapse of maybe 3/ 5/ 7 years from the 1st notice.
      • European Parliament is binary, will only get a yes/no vote, the rest will come from the council.
    • Others made many good points, then I added a few approx. as below, followed by other people:
      • EU should challenge usage of word "democracy" that UK PM falsely asserted in her 2017-03-29 - Article 50. 3.7 Million votes denied is Not democracy to European standards.
      • One could understand if some EU MEPs might be tempted, to give UK citizens in the EU the same bad treatment UK will enforce on EU citizens in UK; to attempt to put pressure on UK, but UK does not care British Abroad, happy to abuse us, all they want is trade, so British abroad are worthless as hostages to barter.
      • EU should stay hard (as she says European Parliament intends) & not give UK a good deal, just a neutral deal. A thieving lieing abusive UK government does not deserve a good deal.
      • UK govt. may hopefully yet break, esp. when among issues eg N Ireland's border problem re-surfaces.
      • As the problems unfold, inc. eg later in Ireland (EU want a border somewhere. DUP (May' s crutch) objects between NI & GB. Others don't want a border between N & S Ireland to avoid more Troubles) MPs may increasingly break Theresa May & Jeremy Corbin's whips, & vote issues on conscience, not to suit party leader[s] careers.
      • Please give us the chance to apply for Direct EU nationality.
    • A questioner wondered why some leading UK private firms he named as JCB & Dyson wanted Brexit ? Quiet speculation "Tax Havens ?"
      ( Independent 2017-11-08: " Britain tries to water down EU anti-tax haven measures days after Paradise Papers revelations", & Brexit sponsors desperate for UK to leave EU before caught)

Tunbridge Wells, Kent ....... long resident in EU: ................... Munich, Germany. jhs_ERASE_@berklix.com Home +49 .. ........ Mobile +44 ........... 750,000 British in Europe, (3,700,000 globally), were deprived of a right to vote in the [1st] Brexit referendum , as resident outside the UK over 15 years. My savings, pension, family, media, politics all remain British. Many others are similar. No MPs represent us, but we will be impacted more than Brits in the UK. Governments of all parties have denied us rights to vote. More than countries allow citizens living abroad to vote. All in EU do, except Britain & Eire. 95% of Brits I know in Munich have taken German dual citizenship to protect themselves against the existential threat of Brexit. Please encourage fellow back bench MPs of all parties to vote Brexit issues as non party issues. Reject the whips of Both major party leader; Brits Abroad abhor both equally for abusing Brexit for party political advantage. Please seize back control from the whips, & vote your consciences !

Julian H. Stacey jhs_ERASE_@berklix.com ADDRESS ..........................., POSTCODE Dear Mr Clark Brexit issues split both major parties & damage Britain. MPs & electorate deserve free votes of conscience, as for abortion & death penalty issues etc. Demographics have changed since June 2016, the electorate is better informed & know some sponsorship of Brexit was criminal: A People's Vote is appropriate. The longer Mrs May denies MPs & electorate free votes, & a referendum, the more Conservatives will fracture; Brexiteers & Remainers uniting to reject her deal. Many UK voters living in the EU won't easily vote Conservative again: 750,000 votes were deprived from British citizens living over 15 years in the EU, from British who will be more impacted by Brexit than voters in the UK. The referendum was then lied to be Democratic. While Mrs May forces her Brexit, the economy disrupts, the Conservatives lose voters, the party tears itself apart, while chances of a Jeremy Corbin premiership &/or civil disorder increase when the fractured economy collapses. The electorate resent Mrs May telling them what they want. Remove further Brexit choice from Mrs May, Mr Corbin, their whips & parties. Let a free fair referendum decide: Hard Brexit, Or Deal As Issued, Or Remain. Yours Sincerely Julian H. Stacey

Dear Rosie Duffield, [ I was last registered to vote in your Canterbury Constituency, but now denied a UK vote as abroad over 15 years, despite family savings pension etc in UK, & remaining 100% British. ] Brexit issues split both major parties & damage Britain. MPs & electorate deserve free votes of conscience, as for abortion & death penalty issues etc. We're tired of Mrs May & Mr Corbin etc abusing Brexit for party or personal political advantage, while Britain tanks. Brexit issues are cross party, with Brexiteers & Remainers in both major parties. Brexit Issues should be voted freely across all parties. Remove further Brexit policy from Mrs May, Mr Corbin, their whips & parties. Let a free fair referendum decide: Hard Brexit, Or Deal As Issued, Or Remain. Demographics have changed since June 2016, the electorate is better informed & know some sponsorship of Brexit was criminal: A People' s Vote is appropriate. 750,000 votes were deprived from British citizens living over 15 years in the EU, from British who will be more impacted by Brexit than voters in the UK. The referendum was then lied to be Democratic. Brits abroad deserve a vote. The Conservatives alienated British Abroad by failing to deliver on 2 manifesto promises to deliver rights to vote. Fertile ground for Labour ? Yours Sincerely Julian H. Stacey

  Galileo:

  RAF will be denied Galileo : Skim past " Minister resigns" down to quote: BBC: " Brussels had said that, as a result of Brexit, the UK would not be allowed immediate access to part of the system intended for use by government agencies, the armed forces and emergency responders once it came online in 2020. But the UK, which has invested #1.4bn (1.24bn) in the project, said access was vital to its military and security interests.

EU politicians abuse Galileo access to coerce Brexit negotiations with UK, claiming UK is less secure than the EU: Europe is more pacifist, & history shows Europe was less secure than the UK. Only France & UK have nukes to counter balance Russiann nukes. EU will cripple NATO intercepts of See Also: Russian intrusions into European air space. GPS & Money: Wonder if Russia slipped money to the Brexit campaign : Destabilising & splitting opposition is a known technique. UK should demand it's money back for Galileo, & refuse to hand over control encryption keys until paid. Theresa May claims it's accounted, assume more fudge. It will cripple the shrinking dis-United Kingdom to pay for 30 GPS satellites, when all government economic predictions post Brexit show reduced growth. Even the larger EU nearly cancelled Galileo as too expensive.

    Encourage friends to write their MPs, To resign the whips on Brexit issues, & vote as matters of conscience for themselves & constituents, Not continue as lackeys of party whips for leaders Theresa May & Jeremy Corbin who both want Leave.

•     2018-12-25 Prediction On Brexit

  British most places probably discussed Brexit after turkey etc In Munich too with an eclectic mix: More Remainers (also annoyed at stolen votes) + 2 rare (resident in the EU) Leavers (one of whom would have voted Leave to scare the EU, though not expecting a Leave majority, & one committed Leaver who now doesn't believe Brexit will happen (*), & some German spouses/ friends etc. All but 1 Brit Remainer & 1 Brit Leaver had recently taken German dual nationality to protect themselves against the UK leaving the EU. All but one (*) were not sure what would happen. Below attempts to sketch a consensus of probabilities: Electorate will tell / email / write MPs : "You lot have sleep walked Too Long! Seize Control! Fix the Mess!" Parliament reconvenes 2019-01-07. 2 days later Theresa May's delaying tactic finally expires 2019-01-09 , Debate preceeding "Meaningful vote" starts. 3[+] Votes to come: Jeremy Corbin eagerly proposes a no confidence in the government. Loses, Conservatives not wanting to be trounced out of office Jeremy Corbin (reluctantly, him being a Brexiteer, but not wanting to cede leadership of Labour MPs ) proposes a no confidence in Theresa May' s deal, & Wins Jeremy Corbin more reluctantly, or others eagerly, propose a Referendum, which probably wins Commons eyes the imminent Deadline 2017-03-29 23:00 GMT Commons argues for at least a week on the words on the referendum (of 2016-06-23) , Options: Some Brexiteer extremists will propose: Hard Brexit or Deal Brexit. Rejected Some Remainers will propose: Remain in EU or Theresa May's Deal Brexit. Probably Rejected. Many Others might propose: Remain in EU, Or Theresa May's Deal Brexit, Or Hard Brexit: Probably a Majority A few will suggest Norway: Rejected as no time. A few will suggest Canada Plus: Rejected as no time ( Canada took 7 years, not 2 months). Some may propose a cascaded second transferable preference vote, for if 1st preference has too few votes. Most probably that will be rejected. Commons Maybe debates if the 750,000 Brits resident in Europe with no UK vote , should be finally allowed a vote, or the 3,700,000 global Brits with no vote, (perhaps suggesting the last reading of Votes For Life be brought forward). Probably quickly discarded for lack of time, especially as Brits abroad not already registered with UK at which foreign addresses, No Time to register, unless EU extends, Expect Brits abroad to be screwed again by Britain, the 2nd least democratic country in Europe . Once Parliament votes to authorise a specific Brexit Referendum, EU has said it could/ would allow an extension of 2 year deadline on Article 50. Which UK would then want. But EU would have to persuade all 27 other member states to agree. Maybe EU would achieve a simple numeric deadline extension, so long as all 28 avoid trying to change other words & no new deal shuffling. Referendum would then take weeks. Some country not in Europe once took just 1.5 weeks, (ref. requested) - Electoral Commission normally takes weeks to months, but they' ve been gearing up ready in case. Referendum happens. Count is returned. Probably more for Remain, as demographics have changed, & some Brexiteers see Theresa May' s deal as worse than Remain & some other ex Brexiteers sees the nightmare chaos looming. Commons argues for a week or two on what the referendum means & to do They'll probably decide to stay in EU (for now) as: Change of sentiment. Change of demographics, new young voters, oldies dead. The deal's a mess, too late to change Hard brexit far too damaging. Time needed If necessary to sack the PM by the Commons, repeatedly no confidenced. Time needed MPs decide a candidate for temporary one issue national emergency Prime Minister. Possibly LibDem leader as Cons & Lab wont trust each other. Time needed Queen formally invites someone to form a [temporary] government of national unity (like war time). (it does Not have to be leader of largest party, history shows constitution allows PMs from minority parties, just we haven't had one in a long while), (+ Parties might split for a while, & reform later) Couple Of Days [New?] PM Drafts one Paragraph "UK withdraws Article 50 letter of 2017-03-29 , UK shall remain a member of the EU. [Sorry for past inconvenience ?]" If deadline is tight, probably by Ambassador in Brussels, & paper copy by RAF fighter jet flown from RAF Northolt West London, if desperate or for a spot of theater ;-) (Civil planes get disrupted for eg Gatwick drones, Icelandic Volcanic dust etc) EU can not refuse withdrawal, suggested by ECJ - Court official 2018-12-04 . Confirmed by full court see 2018-12-10 . Later depending on Referendum & Commons, PM might warn EU verbally, not in writing that UK may again want to leave EU, but that next time round both sides should allow more time to negotiate better, considering that eg the Canada deal took 7 years. & that if a next time formal written notice would only be issued to a 2 year deadline, after most progress already negotiated. Maybe the old EU idea of a 2 speed Europe might re-arise, & UK & other EU states might decide the outer ring suits UK & some other states better. Quibbles: Various specious quibbles may be raised why things supposedly can't happen, but don' t necessarily believe them, if push comes to shove, the Commons could force it. Quibbles might include eg constitutional assertions of impossibility; But if Parliament finally decides to seize control there may be numerous emergency points of order, Order of business can change, parties could temporarily re-align, PM & government could be [temporarily] dumped for duration of the issue, A quick referendum could be forced even if not 100% accurate, Lords & Queen could be accelerated, etc. OR CRASH & STACK - MPs could continue to be irresponsible, allow themselves to continue being party whipped, Not make it a matter of conscience, & Not seize control from the Brexiteers Theresa May & Jeremy Corbin. UK could paralyse & crash into a hard no deal Brexit, that not many would profit from, (except those invested in a UK industry & Sterling crash, and a few multi-millionaire Brexit promoters keen to avoid the EU' s new 2019 law that will force them to pay the UK more tax, & some who believe the media they bought/ influenced, etc.)

  Subject: Government of national unity to solve Brexit (fwd) Date: Fri, 11 Jan 2019 11:27:52 +0100 To: brexit @ mailman . berklix . org As sent to MP (who is also Secretary of State for Business, Energy and the Industrial Strategy): To: "CLARK, Greg" greg.clark.mp@parliament.uk Subject: Government of national unity to solve Brexit Julian H. Stacey .................. .................. UK.. POSTCODE +49 .. ........ +44 ........... jhs@berklix.... Friday 11th Jan. 2019 Dear Mr Clark, Who will form & be PM of a government of national unity ? Before chaos & civil insurrection precede hard brexit by default, bringing severe economic damage to the UK ? Theresa May & Jeremy Corbin are both leavers not competent to solve Brexit, the most vital cross party issue of personal conscience since the last war. A national unity government is needed to: Revoke Article 50 , buying UK time. Arrange a new honest (*) referendum Re-issue article 50 to EU if UK Parliament considers it appropriate, with more time to make arrangements. (*) Last Referendum (of 2016-06-23): 1,900,000 were too young to vote, more will be Remainers. 1,300,000 died since & elderly vote more & mostly leavers. Criminal fines from electoral malpractice. Lies. Media manipulation by Russia & mega rich to avoid new EU tax directive forcing them to paying UK more tax. Since over 2.5 years ago, opinions have changed, as between elections too. Right to vote was denied to 3,700,000 British voters globally. Right to vote was stolen from 750,000 British voters in EU. You need to form a Government of National Unity before Britain Dis-Unites, Jobs & capital flight occurs, Insurrection starts in Scotland,   British resident in Europe burn Union Jacks, & London independence gains strength, etc. Yours Sincerely

  • DAY in Westminster:

    Subject: MPs to debate petitions relating to leaving the European Union on Monday 14 January. From: "Petitions: UK Government and Parliament" no-reply@petition.parliament.uk Date: Wed, 9 Jan 2019 03:34:45 +0000 The Petitions Committee (the group of MPs who oversee the petitions system) met today and agreed to schedule a debate on Monday 14 January 2019 on the following group of petitions expressing different views on leaving the European Union: Sign Petitions on Parliament Petitions Site STOP BREXIT Expired: petition . parliament . uk / petitions / 226509 / Leave the EU without a deal in March 2019.

    Report on the meeting:

    • To see the archive, available to those on the Mail List brexit@

    • Date: Tue, 15 Jan 2019 13:10:38 +0100 See some of you at the meeting tonight eventbrite . co . uk / e / open - evening - for - uk - nationals - in - munich - tickets - 53532423921# That meeting was a grossly inefficient waste of time & opportunity, except for side meetings. It would have been more useful to Stay home & email an MP berklix . org / brexit /#mp Credit to the Brits in Bavaria organisers, They generously devote time to us Brits (even though most don't need to as they have already secured dual nationality), & through their organisation, attendance was much increased for the Consul's event. David from stage & Ingrid from floor gave useful information but British in Bavaria also contributed to making the Consul's large meeting look good to his boss: The foreign government & mandarins in Whitehall that abuse us, & deny us votes & MP representation & soon MEP's representation too. BiB seem far more useful than consulate, campaigning with host country Germany to ease residence permit applications for Brits. (I hope David & Ingrid's travel expenses to Berlin next week might be paid by Consulate, but I'd guess not). Salaried Consulate & FCO don' t care much about British abroad, just encourage us to take foreign nationality to get rid of us as their problem, Meeting Time Was Incredibly Inefficiently Wasted: - Not much time spent giving generic info pertinent to all, masses of time after on a sequence of boring individual cases better discussed 1 to 1. - The Consul (not announced on web invite, even after event), had brought 2 ladies from Kreis Verwaltung Referat who answered question in a friendly & informed manner, but one spoke only German, so endless translation to English, many didn't need, on individual' s problems. - Endless boring questions of detailed personal circumstances, near all to KVR ladies that would have been better in private session to KVR, not wasting the time of hundreds in audience, & then repeated in English - Loads of people couldn't ask questions. Many left early. - I intercepted the lazy microphone stroller to tell him quietly "Time for some questions to _ Consul_, not just the other two. I have a question for _ Consul_ !" He ignored it. He failed to ask questioners what topics, to assure variety. - I had a quiet word with David on stage "How about some Questions to Consul!" David not interested. All questions going to KVR Me: "This meeting was advertised as with the _ Consul_ !" Consul latched that (give Consul his due there!). - Just 2 people from floor raised non personal-only problems (that I recall) of wider non personal interest: Ingrid, then me later. - My point was: "As 750,000+ of us have no votes, no MPs, & PM Theresa May lied in Para 3 line 2 of Art. 50, that referendum was democratic, & as MPs still are un-informed & say it was full free & fair, & as we asked the last Consul to report this back to London, & _As We Have NO MPs_ - Did last Consul reported this to London ?" [Applause followed, Thanks!] New Consul: "Yes", Alan in loud aside to me "AND ... ?" The Consul Gave No Information! No response to our previous numerous complaints to old Consul at previous meetings. The Meeting Was A Horrible Waste Of Opportunity: - Much time was wasted on personal cases of little relevance to many. - At end I asked David on stage to announce people could email MPs via parliament.uk [& there was an EU petition for European citizenship to sign]. He wasn't interested, said it could go in newsletter later. Wrong! : Today & This week is ideal to email MPs! The EU petition needs regular plugging, not least 'cos we may no be eligible to sign it in 2.5 months ! - The petition to Queen could have been considered/mentioned, that BiB have evaded for a year. berklix . org / queen/ - David could have called for a discussion at the end, eg how to influence UK decision makers. Not done. - We could have publicised this list & others too as a means of discussion to supplement one way communication from Consul & BiG newsletter - We could have called for suggestions from audience, beyond the mere eternal "How do I apply for German XYZ?" (that is better on an FAQ or individually). - Could have discussed active measures eg stuffbrexit/ - Could have discussed if more legal measures possible against Brexit, in light of eg election manipulation etc. brexitshambles . com / to - say - theres - a - smell - surrounding - the - eu - referendum - is - an - understatement - its - an - overpowering - stench/ The Meeting Had No Effective Chairmanship & Little General Benefit Perhaps because BiG had not convened it so David could not control it. Just a panel discussion that will look good on the Consul's report to FCO, but was extremely inefficient of many participants time, very many left early, far worse than a panel discussion at a trade show (which works better with numbers limited to about 10% of last night). BiG/BiB should consider if its worth continuing to bless Consul's meetings with their name. A year back, BiG/BiB might have drawn more attendance because of Consul presence. Now meetings organised by Consul largely waste time, counter productive in that we don' t control them, & they distract while the clock ticks. We should be spending some time fighting Brexit, not just forever hearing the same old German citizenship & permits questions.

  "People's Vote" launched a new website and campaign The People's Voice peoples - vote . uk / peoples_voice tell them what you think the solution is - Good Idea! Below are their questions & 1 set of answers, give them your answers too.
  

  QUESTION 1 What are the biggest challenges facing people, businesses and communities in this country? (300 words) ANSWER 1 2nd least democratic country in Europe, 3,700,000 votes stolen from British abroad, 750,000 from British in EU, no MPs soon no MEPs. 110 countries citizens abroad can vote. 2.8 Million too young to vote, 1.9 Million died, mostly leavers. Fraud, fines, lies, corrupt web bot manipulation. QUESTION 2 How can we begin to heal some of the divisions in our country? (300 words) ANSWER 2 Don't steal votes from British abroad. Make electoral lies an offence: not so at present. Prosecute web bots manipulating media. House of Commons committees work with Security service on Russia. Expose tax avoiders funding Brexit to evade new EU law forcing more tax to UK. QUESTION 3 Is there more that Europe should do to address these challenges and help overcome divisions in the UK? (300 words) ANSWER 3 Europe should slow down rate of growth & legislation. Most countries have many who like their national variance. European parliament needs more power as We the people elect MEPs, take power from elsewhere in EU, maybe council of ministers ? Or [not sure] ? (PS Re. Answer 3: Need to find time to learn more about structure of EU.) QUESTION 4 What should be different about the leadership and style for a new campaign to stay in Europe compared to the last one? (300 words) ANSWER 4 Include British citizens resident in EU, more impacted than British in the UK. Maybe allow EU citizens resident in UK as Brexit will wreck their lives. There's a precedent in suffrage law for Scottish independence referendum. Eire & Australia citizens resident in UK could vote last time!

  Public Flag Burning ? by UK Citizens Resident In The EU To mark Stolen Votes, Foreign funded lies, Criminals Fined, & Stolen Brexit

  If PM further delays & Parliament lets Brexit slip too far, & the risk of a hard Brexit significantly increases ... British resident outside the UK in Continental Europe may stage Union Jack Flag Burnings, to deliver a message: UK parliament 's hard Brexit would existentially impact British abroad, who were also denied votes in the old 2016-06-23 referendum which was gerrymandered by stealing rights to vote of 3,700,000 British abroad globally (& 750,000 British in the EU) & the 2016-06-23 referendum was then lied to be democratic. britishineurope.org apparently will be too tame to consult on flag burning dates. Flag burning would just flag annoyance to Parliament , it would be a mild action compared to last time Britain denied voting rights to British citizens abroad, which resulted in Britain loosing The American War Of Independence. When Britain denied Votes For Women, that also escalated to civil disorder. The abusive government is already providing 3,500 troops in the UK to enforce their hard Brexit. British resident overseas over 15 years have already lost their right to vote in General Elections & eg Brexit etc Referendums, & British resident in the EU will also lose their right to vote for EU MEPs. UK parliament should give British Abroad our rights to vote.   Sets Precedent [Link Expired] : ' Whitstable England - "Burn the flag!" chanted the crowd in a British fishing port on Sunday, as a boat adorned with the EU flag was set on fire in one of a series of Brexit rallies held around Britain. Leading Brexit campaigner Nigel Farage looked on ...' Comment: If an EU MEP can witness EU flag burning, then a UK citizen can equally witness a UK flag burning.

• 2019-10-31 Doomsday #3 :, Halloween.
  delayed from 2019-03-29 & 2019-04-12 . EU Pres. Tusk warned UK "Don't waste the time". Then Conservative (& Labour parties to lesser degree) wasted the time on internecine party warfare. Refusing the simple democratic solution: to recognise it's a cross party issue, & let MPs have free un-whipped votes. & inviting the electorate to a referendum on what they thought of Brexit & Theresa May' s + EU's proposed ` deal' , & then the venal attempt to mount a Coup

  Is Boris ("Sooner be dead in a ditch! Do or die!") Johnson now dead ? Or still alive ? Breaking more laws since Supreme Court Judgement ?.

  • Email to BBC: Please interview some [electors] British abroad .
    In the archive, available to those on the Mail List brexit@
    Feel free to email other media similar etc
    To: pm@bbc.co.uk
    Subject: Another region of under interviewed general election voters: Europe !
    Date: Mon, 02 Dec 2019 23:42:33 +0100

    Hi pm@bbc.co.uk, Luke Jones interviewed people in Stockton on Tees N.E. England today, for Radio 4 s PM Programme, searching under represented regions & views on the election:

    A big group of electors not interviewed by the BBC is British abroad : British non resident in the UK for less than 15 years can still vote, & will vote as they know how Brexit will drastically impact British resident in the EU more than British resident in the UK & NI.

    Please interview some British abroad especially those whose vote has not yet been robbed by the 15 year rule. Ask them which way & why they will be voting. The "why" may include:

    Mr Johnson s hard Brexit will damage perhaps 1.5 ? million British in the EU who will lose rights to live & work in the countries they are in, & lose social security & health insurance etc. Some will move back homeless to UK, loosing friends & business contacts becoming extra burdens on UK NHS & social security.

    Some of the British in Europe will be allowed to stay in EU, if they successfully jump bureaucratic hurdles fast enough. (In Germany, after 34 years, I got 3 months notice, some towns in France apparently issue just a few weeks notice).

    Brexit has coerced many British to take dual foreign nationality. After Brexit, dual won't be possible in Germany, so British will be forced to renounce British citizenship to obtain just foreign citizenship.

    750 Thousand British living in Europe, got NO vote in the 2016 Brexit Referendum , & will get NO vote in this election, 110 countries allow citizens abroad to vote, but Britain steals the right to vote after 15 years abroad.

    Those extra 750K British in EU should have 10 MPs pro rata to represent us. berklix.eu/brexit/#extra_mps But We have No Votes, No MPs to represent us, & No BBC journalists interview us.

    Even with all savings, pension, house & family members in UK & frequent visits, including on referendum or election day, we still can't vote.

    Successive Conservative manifestos have lied that 3.4 million British abroad globally would get the right to vote, but we have not.

    Last time Britain stole so many votes from British citizens, the victims were called Americans, & the UK economy lost the War of Independence.

    Regards
    Julian H. Stacey +49 .. ________ jhs@berklix.___

  A Template you are welcome to customise, & Email your MP To: Mail List brexit@ Subject: The Commons Brexit+Russia report has now been suppressed for a year!

(RAF often use 2 fighters for 1 bomber). Before Brexit, the EU foolishly announced they would deny the UK & thus the RAF, new Galileo positioning access (aka a GPS), EU's reason: UK not in EU was not so trustworthy! despite UK helped pay for Galileo! Without best global positioning it would be harder for the UK to continue sharing with Northern European countries to scramble & precisely intercept Russian bombers on UK intrusion test missions. It's still unknown who paid Cambridge Analytica to swing sentiment to Brexit. Did Russia also ? A cheap investment if so. The Commons Intelligence and Security Committee of Parliament (ISC) completed a report. The government have now suppressed the report a Year! Johnson last suppressed the report till parliament expired, then returned it to [new] committee, failed to appoint a new committee chair. There's still only 2 Lords appointed & no Commons. https://hansard.parliament.uk/Commons/2019-11-05/debates/AABC4DE9-4D70-4937-9AF5-D58CE7B0601D/IntelligenceAndSecurityCommitteeReportOnRussia bit.ly/2pLo9Bo 05 November 2019 12.35 pm Mr Dominic Grieve (Beaconsfield) (Ind) (Urgent Question): To ask the Prime Minister if he will make a statement on his refusal to give clearance to the report on Russia by the Intelligence and Security Committee of Parliament. ...

    the Committee
    ...
    now considers that if Mr Johnson were still a Member he should be suspended from the
    service of the House for 90 days for repeated contempts and for seeking to undermine
    the parliamentary process, by:
    ...
    Deliberately misleading the House
    Deliberately misleading the Committee
    Breaching confidence
    Impugning the Committee and thereby undermining the democratic process
    of the House
    Being complicit in the campaign of abuse and attempted intimidation of the

    We recommend that he should not be entitled to a former Member's pass.
    

• 2023-06-19: www . bbc . com / news / live / uk - politics - 65935357
  • "MPs have voted to approve a report which found Boris Johnson deliberately misled MPs over parties at Downing Street during lockdown
  • Johnson would have faced a 90-day suspension if he were still an MP - but he quit after being sent the report's findings in advance
  • The report also recommended he should not be allowed a pass which lets ex-MPs freely access Parliament"
  • "MPs voted by 354 votes to seven to approve the report, after five hours of debate on its findings that the ex-PM deliberately misled the House of Commons over parties in Downing Street during lockdown.
  • Many Tory MPs chose to stay away from Parliament today, which means no vote was recorded for them.
  • A full vote was called after Labour objected to adopting the report unanimously, forcing MPs to put their position on the record."
  • With 118 Conservative MPs voting to back this report, that means around 200 decided to not vote at all.

  • Comment:
  • This one didnt hurt Brits abroad for a rare change, but hurt UK public, eg it could hit any day triper to France etc.
  • The pain for Brits abroad came earlier, having to register as a non EU national living in an Eu country, or jump through (time consuming & expensive) hoops to apply for foreign dual nationality, similar but less pain than about 3 million EU nationals in UK went through.
  • Then hastle for EU citizens who had to get a passport just to visit UK, when they didnt need it for rest of Europe, I know people who decided not to holiday again in UK post Brexit as too much trouble: So reduced tourist revenue to UK & worse exchange rate for holder of Sterling who want to buy Euros.
  • Economists warned Brexit would hit UK economy, & it did, the world just suffered Corona & Putin, the UK also suffered Brexit, the EU economy being much bigger than the UK, the EU didnt get hit near so hard.
  • Less EU workers for Uk farms & pubs & restaurants, as EU workers left UK.
  • No personaly exported cheddar from UK for Brits in Europe. EU being bloody awkward.
  • I've been in ridiculous Dover queues, but not the worst backing up & blocking M20 & bisecting Kent emergency services, when Maidstone hospital access was hit.
  • The Irish question of where EU/UK border should be, is still not solved, & was provoked by Brexit. Look how tightening the EU/French border in Dover even provoked Kent.
  • Sleezy corrupt UK liars had illegal covert advertising to promote Brexit, conning a gullible ignorant electorate that Brexit was simple & easy.
  • `Democracy' is to use Churchill's words "The least worst system", but it was Not democratic when UK faked a Brexit referendum by excluding the votes of millions of British abroad, including the most informed & certainly those most impacted by Brexit.
  • Expect more trouble from the self satified idiots in UK & EU governments who fumble & abuse Brexit reshuffles, creating trouble for the innocent public both sides of the Brexit border, blocking the other side, to bolster their own national side in disputes & negotiations, at the expense of public both sides. Adding salt to the wound, we tax payers are forced to pay the salaries ot these abusers who deliberately obstruct our travel & trade.
